Greetings, Jaclyn!
Thanks for coming to planDisney with a Magic Key question!
I’m glad to hear that you are interested in upgrading your
SoCal Resident Ticket to a
Disneyland Resort Magic Key! It’ll allow you to experience the magic of the Disneyland Resort for an entire year!
It sounds like you found the option to upgrade within the
Disneyland Mobile App. I do recommend waiting to upgrade until the very end of your visit. That's because your
Theme Park Reservation is linked to your current admission type. If you upgrade before the last day of your visit, the system will delete your current reservations. And, you’d need to book a new reservation, subject to the
Magic Key Availability Calendar.
Also, the only Magic Key currently available for purchase is the Inspire Key. All other Magic Key Passes, including the Enchant Key, are only available for current Magic Keyholders to renew.
If you do choose to upgrade, California residents have the option to make monthly payments rather than paying for the Magic Key in full at the time of purchase. But because this option is only available to California residents, please be sure you're logged in to your Disneyland Resort account prior to initiating the upgrade. On the final payment screen, there is a button to select the monthly payment option.
If you have any more questions, please return to planDisney for an answer!
