Bright suns, Maria!
I like the way you plan. Looking ahead toward the delicious food and precious souvenirs I can pick up to remind me of my upcoming visit to the Disneyland Resort is exactly what I’m doing now too.
While using contactless forms of payment is encouraged, cash is also accepted for nearly all purchases at the Disneyland Resort. You may certainly pay for your
dining and
shopping using cash you have on hand. It’s a good way to avoid international fees or other possible hindrances to using other forms of payment.
Tony’s Tip: If you would like the convenience of making purchases with a card, you may use cash to purchase a
Disney Gift Card. These handy cards are available to purchase at most shops in the Disneyland Resort theme parks and
hotels as well as Disney-operated shops in the Downtown Disney District. A gift card is also a great way to pay for certain electronic transactions that cannot be made with cash, such as purchasing the Disney Genie+ service or individual Lightning Lane return times. Some Disney Gift Cards are very much like souvenirs in and of themselves. That is certainly the case for the
Batuuan Spira, which may be available at select locations in
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and can even be used at participating locations that accept Disney Gift Cards on our home planet.
‘Til the spire, Maria!
