Hi, Joshua, and welcome to
planDisney! Thanks for trusting us with your question. I'm delighted to see you here today!
I'm very happy to report that you're more than welcome to use physical plastic cards the same way you would use a MagicBand. You can use them to scan into the Theme Parks, link your PhotoPass pictures to your My Disney account, and redeem your
Lightning Lane Multi Pass or Single Pass reservations.
Joshua, all you need to do is stop by a ticketing window or Guest Relations location and ask a friendly Cast Member for physical cards for you and your family. I suggest writing everyone's names on the back of each card with a marker so you don't forget who they belong to! And if you want to keep the cards as souvenirs, you can also ask the Cast Member to show you which designs are available at that given moment. I collect
Walt Disney World cards, so I have a ton of different characters! They have all the classics like Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Donald, but they also have princesses like Tiana and Pixar characters like Nemo.
Pro tip: bring a lanyard for your cards so you don't have to fish them out of your wallet every time you want to use them. It's much easier to have them hanging from your neck and scan them when you need to!
Please don't hesitate to reach back out to us with any other questions you might have. We're always more than happy to help here at planDisney. Have a magical weekend!
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
