Hey there, hi there, ho there, Allison! You're as welcome as can be here at
planDisney. Annual Passes are such a wonderful way to experience the
Walt Disney World Resort, and the monthly payment option makes them even more accessible, so I'm glad you’re looking into how that works!
For
Walt Disney World Annual Passes, the monthly payment plan is available specifically to Florida residents and is set up during the initial purchase process. When you buy your Annual Pass online through the official Walt Disney World website, you'll see an option at checkout that allows you to choose monthly payments instead of paying the full amount upfront. Once that selection is made and the purchase is completed, the monthly billing is automatically established using the payment method you provide at that time.
If you've already purchased your Annual Pass and are looking to update or manage your existing payment method, that part can't be handled online. In that case, you'll need a little help from a Cast Member. You can
call the Annual Passholder hotline directly, or you can take care of it in person by visiting a Guest Relations window at any Walt Disney World theme park. Another convenient option is stopping by the Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs, where a Cast Member can assist you with payment updates or questions related to your pass.
Just keep in mind that switching into a monthly payment plan after purchase isn't an option. The plan has to be selected at the time of purchase. However, updating the card or account tied to your existing monthly payments is completely doable through the options I mentioned above.
Allison, I hope this helps clear things up and makes managing your Annual Pass feel easy and stress-free. Being a Passholder is such a special way to enjoy Disney magic year-round, and I'm excited for all the memories you'll continue to make. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach back out to us! We're always available and more than happy to help here at planDisney.
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
