Benefits of a Disney Chase visa

[DLfan4]

What are the benefits or perks of having a Disney Chase Visa?

i know there are special meet and greet events just for card holders, but what other benefits and perks are there? do you get a discount in the park or discounted tickets?

There is a discount (10%?) on purchases over $50 at Disney Stores (online and in the mall). I think that same discount applies at WOD in DtD. I know it applies at the CM store on the studio lot. There are no discounted park tickets, but you will earn double rewards on purchases made in the park (which, I think, includes tickets). The rewards points can be transferred from the rewards card (separate from your credit card) to a Disney gift card. Those gift cards can be used in the parks -- very handy!

I have a card, though I don't use it often. Another benefit is you get a Disney gift card if you spend $X in the first few months. I don't use the discount since I have my cast discount and you can't combine them (same with the annual pass) but if you read the footnotes on this page there are some restrictions: https://creditcards.chase.com/a1/disney_classic/chasecomdisneygc?CELL=6XDJ80

I love that I can get gift cards, but it can take a while to earn. You have to earn a minimum of $10 in rewards before you can transfer it to a gift card.

You also get a 20% discount on DLR tours if you purchase with the Disney VISA.

I'm not a cardholder, but I believe they had an opportunity to buy Mickey's Halloween Party tickets a week before they were opened to the public.

I've had one for years but I always pay it off every month. If you carry a balance this may not be the card for you because the interest rates are terrible.

I wish this were true of all Disney Visa cards, but it is true only of the premier Disney Visa card which has also has an annual fee. I have the no-annual fee Disney Visa, and you get 1% back on your purchases everywhere, Disney-owned location or not.

Other benefits:
10% discount on most purchases of $50 or more at Disney stores, the ones in the parks and the malls
10% dining discount at select locations (which change periodically) inside the parks and downtown Disney
20% discount on tours
ability to purchase tickets for certain types of events in advance: examples include park Halloween party, Disney show tickets on Broadway and elsewhere
character meet and greets, with free photo print, in the parks
some sort of 0% offer on Disney vacations when purchases through Disney travel company I think (this is not a benefit I have ever used or paid much attention to the details of)

I know for WDW we were able to take advantage of the hotel/package discounts before everyone else. I am not sure about the DL hotels. We've cashed in $315 in rewards, so that's a nice perk.

Bingo. That's exactly what I do.

Question to anyone who knows: are they still giving out the vouchers for the Visa M&G for a free photo? I ask because in WDW, they are no longer giving out vouchers, instead its just a free digital download.

If they are still giving out vouchers, are they doing it at both the DCA and DL (Star Wars) locations? And, if so, could you get a voucher at each location in a given day if you park hop or is it just one per day (per card)?

Thanks in advance.

We were there Thanksgiving week. They were still giving out vouchers to pick up a printed picture. You can get one per eligible card per location per day.
