    how do magic bands become active if not staying at WDW resort

    Hey Kathy!

    A warm welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Thanks for stopping by with your question about MagicBands.

    Kathy, when you link a MagicBand to your My Disney Experience account, it is marked as “active” by default. You can see if a MagicBand linked to your account is active by visiting this link.

    You do not need to stay at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel in order to use or active a MagicBand.

    If you purchase your MagicBand while at Walt Disney World Resort, it is easy to link it by using your My Disney Experience account or the My Disney Experience mobile app. If you have any problems linking it at the time of purchase, a friendly Cast Member can help you. I encourage you to download the My Disney Experience mobile app in advance of your upcoming vacation.

    Kathy, if you have any other questions please visit us again. We are always here to help you plan your next Walt Disney World Resort visit!

    Wishing you a Magical Vacation,

    Priscila
