If more people decide to come with us, can I add them to our reservation and if so when will I get their magic bands? We have a campsite with 4 people currently.
 
As long as your bands have not already shipped, it would just add new bands to the reservation. But if your reservation is a package (tickets, meal plan, etc.) not just room only they will need to be added to the whole package, not just the room reservation.
 
Even if the MBs have shipped, you could probably still get the generic ones when you check in. (Just plain grey I think). You can probably add them all the way up to "Check-in" time. (Well at least up to the limit of 10). I believe the MBs generally ship about 2 weeks out from arrival date.
 
I can't see where to do this online. We are inside our 30 days. Our personalized bands have already shipped. Figured we would have to pick theirs up there, I was hoping there was an easy solution online, but thinking I may have to call. Not a big deal, but so much easier to punch a few buttons than to sit on hold! Thanks for the replies!
 

Adding people to a reservation cannot be done online. I added folks to a reservation that I had made online. I could change arrival/departure dates online but not adding people. You have to call to do that.

As others said, since you are inside 30 days, just get gray Magic Bands when you check in. Or you can buy MB's at the Disney Store with various characters/designs and link it to that individual in MDE.

If your new guests have their own MDE account, there is a way for them to be linked to yours for purposes of meal reservations, FP+, etc. Or you can add them as additional people on your MDE.

This is one reason I hate MyMagic+. It adds additional crap when plans/people/dates change.

I added people to my NYE reservation online. Go to my disney experience, the area where it has your reservations. There should be a button to modify your reservation. I added a couple of people to our reservation with no changes to dates. They received their magic bands in the mail along with ours. I imagine that if the magic bands have been sent, they will get it at check in.

ETA: Maybe it's due to the time till check-in? I just checked online and I can add people to a July trip and a December trip.

ETA2: I tried to change the dates on the December trip because the sneaky online reservation system would only let me book for 11 nights, not 6 nights as I wanted, but it searched for a new offer and gave me no availability. In other words, it tried to cancel and rebook my whole reservation. I think I'm going to have to cancel those days when I get to the campground. :headache::headache:
