Hey Howdy Hey Erin and welcome to planDisney!
How exciting it is to know you are just days away from your Magical vacation to the Walt Disney World Resort. There is so much excitement happening in the parks right now, you picked a great time to visit! Thank you for stopping by with your question about MagicBand usage on your checkout date. You've got a friend in me to give you the details on how this works.
Since you will be our Guest coming up really soon, on the day of checkout, your privileges as a resort Guest terminate that night at midnight. You will have the whole day to continue to enjoy the benefits of being a Guest at the Walt Disney World Resort including using your
MagicBand.
As long as you have a credit card on file, you should not have to worry. Disney will typically charge your card on the morning of your checkout date and you will receive a Guest folio summarizing the charges. Throughout the day, Disney typically compiles any charges and then after a couple of hours they will charge your card pending your purchases.
When you do
online check-in, you will be prompted for an option to upload your credit card information. This will be the one tied to your hotel account and MagicBand in the case of any purchases. As long as this is current, your MagicBand should work without issues!
I hope this information makes sense and helps clear up any concerns you had about your visit. If you have any further questions let us know, we are always happy to help!
To Infinity and Beyond,
Nick
