    can I use a magic band to purchase items at Disney without it being linked to a Disney resort?

    Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Trey! 

    Currently, you must be staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel to use your MagicBand to purchase food and merchandise items at the Walt Disney World Resort Hotels, Theme Parks, and Disney Springs. To use this convenient feature, you must have a credit or debit card linked to your room reservation in your My Disney Experience account and set your PIN. If you wish to pay for your charges with another form of payment, such as a Disney gift card or cash, visit your hotel's front desk the night before you check out to pay your balance.

    Being able to charge to your MagicBand is just one of the numerous benefits of staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel! You also receive free transportation from your hotel to any of the Theme parks and Disney Springs! There are three resort categories to fit any budget. Whether you stay at a value, moderate, or deluxe hotel - all are uniquely themed and full of Disney magic! 

    Have a magical day, Trey!
