Disney4me Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 My Disney Experience is a pretty robust app that lets you do just about everything you need when you visit Disney World. You can use the app to check in to your hotel room, unlock your hotel room door, connect to your MagicBand, act as your ticket into the parks, check wait times, book Lightning Lanes, and so much more. My Disney Experience App The app also lets you pay for food via mobile order, as well as pay for merchandise through mobile checkout, but if you want to use a gift card to pay for those things, it’s always been kind of a hassle when using the app. Well, Disney FINALLY fixed that problem and you can set the app to pay with a gift card by default now. Previously, if you wanted to use a gift card to pay for something through the My Disney Experience app, you’d have to manually add in the gift card number every time you wanted to use it. That’s why we’ve previously suggested saving the gift card number in a notes app so you can copy and paste it into My Disney Experience. Gift Card! But that has now changed (and seriously, this is something we’ve been wanting for a LONG time). Well, now both My Disney Experience AND the Disneyland app (yep, Disneyland got included in this update, too) now allow you to add Disney gift cards as your default payment method. Here’s how it works: Click on the three lines on the far right bottom of the My Disney Experience app screen. Scroll down and choose MyDisney Wallet under “Account” Click on “Add a Payment Method” Choose Disney Gift Card Type in the 16-Digit gift card number and details Click on “Save payment card information to MyDisney Wallet” Click on “Confirm.” ©Disney SO easy, right? Then the gift card will be used when you make a purchase through the app. However, this doesn’t yet work with purchasing Lightning Lane options, but, hey, at least we’re getting there with other things! So if you want to use a gift card to pay for mobile orders, mobile check-out items, and tickets, you now have an easy way to do so. ©Disney We’ll keep an eye out for more Disney app updates, so stay tuned to DFB for more. 6 HUGE Disney World App Changes CONFIRMED Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!
