    Can I use a Mastercard gift card to purchase Disneyland resort tickets?

    Hey there, hi there, ho there, Christopher!

    Thank you for stopping by planDisney. I’d be happy to help clarify this for you. While Visa is the official card of the Disneyland Resort, Mastercard is accepted as a form of payment!

    The great news is that you can typically use your Mastercard gift card for more than just your theme park ticket purchase. It can be used to purchase food, beverages, merchandise, and souvenirs within both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, and even the Downtown Disney District! Of course, you can use it at the Disneyland Resort hotels as well.

    Bonus Tip: To streamline your snacking adventures, you can add the card to your wallet within the Disneyland mobile app for easy mobile food and beverage ordering and mobile merchandise checkout. Here’s how:
    1. Tap the (≡) icon in the bottom right corner.
    2.  Scroll down to the “Account” section.
    3. Tap “My Profile.”
    4. Tap “Payment Method.”
    5. Tap “Add a Payment Method.”
    From here, you can enter the card information, and it will be stored in your MyDisney Wallet. You can store up to 6 cards at a time.

    Mobile ordering has been my saving grace on a busy park day. Most recently, it enabled us to divide and conquer when it was time to camp out for a spot for the Paint the Night parade! While my family found a spot, I ordered a savory snack, then ran across Adventureland to grab it, and got back within 10-15 minutes.

    Christopher, I hope this helps and that you have the most magical time during your upcoming vacation to The Happiest Place on Earth!

    Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
