Hi Laura, welcome to planDisney!
Yes, you can certainly use a
Disney Gift Card to pay for your Walt Disney World vacation. That is my preferred method as I like to purchase Disney Gift Cards throughout the year from retailers that offer them at a discount. To make it easier, I
consolidate my Disney Gift Cards online to reduce the number of gift cards I need to use when making payments. Currently, you can consolidate up to $1,000 per gift card (subject to change) which comes in handy since you can only use one Disney Gift Card per transaction at this time when making payments through the Walt Disney World Resort website. Alternatively, you can call
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations and they can accept more than one Disney gift card to use towards your Walt Disney World vacation.
If you purchased a Walt Disney World Vacation Package should be able to make payments online in the "My Plans" section of My Disney Experience. Scroll down to your reservation information, click on the "Show Details" link and you should see a "Make Payment" link next to the balance due amount.
However, if you booked a room-only reservation, you will need to call
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations to speak to a cast member directly as a payment link is not currently available online. They will be more than happy to accept a payment towards your reservation. This is also the perfect time to add any room requests you may have to your reservation.
Laura, I hope you find this information helpful. Please let us know if there is anything further we can assist you with.
