Greetings, Camille! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
The package you purchased sounds similar to one I used a few years ago so I'm familiar with some of the details. The
PhotoPass Collection product allows you to download all the images from your visit that were taken by a PhotoPass photographer or on an attraction. When you get your picture taken at the parks, have the PhotoPass photographer scan the code in your
Disneyland app. If you don't have the app, they will give you a PhotoPass card that you will scan each time. You will then link the card(s) to your Disneyland account by entering the 16-character code or by scanning the barcode on the card with the Disneyland app. You can link attraction photos by entering the 8-character code that appears on the photo monitor near the attraction exit. At the conclusion of your trip, ensure that all the pictures you want are linked to your account. Then, enter the 16-character PhotoPass Collection code that you received with your package to download your photos. Keep in mind that the PhotoPass Collection code is for one-time use only, so it is imperative that all your photos are linked before you enter that code.
For the
gift card you received, you will be able to use this at a variety of locations throughout the parks. Shops and restaurants in Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park all accept Disney gift cards as a method of payment. You can also use them at the Disneyland Resort Hotels. The only places that don't accept Disney gift cards are some restaurants and stores in the Downtown Disney District as they are independently owned.
Please stop by the Disney Parks Moms Panel again if you have any other questions!
