So I want to buy our AP vouchers before whatever changes happen on the 16th. I like to get gc's at our local grocery store as they have a gas program. HOWEVER I believe you can only buy $500 increments. Does anyone know if you can use multiple gc's to check out for AP vouchers on the WDW site? Thanks in advance.
 
I don't know if you can use multiple gift cards on the website to pay, but I do know that if you go to the gift card manager site HERE you can combine two of those $500 cards together to make a $1000 card. That may make things simpler for you.
 
If you can't buy them with GC online, try calling. You should be able to use them.
 
I have gotten them for fuel perks at our local grocery store. I have combined them into a $1000 card as Tomh mentioned and have purchased them over the phone as holden suggested.
 

I was able to purchase our APs online with GCs but had to do it one at a time since each GC could only hold up to $1,000.
 
Where does it allow you to enter a gift card? I tried to update mine and the only payment option was for a credit card. I'd love to do it online, but fear I'm going to have to call.

There is an area to enter a credit card but if you scroll down further you will see an option to add a Disney Gift card

I just did this with over 30 gift cards to purchase 4 AP's. I purchased each AP as a separate transaction. First I went to the Disney Gift Card and combined the gift cards into one big enough to purchase 1 AP. Then I added the AP to the cart to purchase and I was able to use the 1 large gift card and 1 credit card to pay the few dollars difference. Worked like a charm.
 
There is a limit to the number of GCs you can use to purchase APs or tickets in general.. You will definitely need to combine them. I learned this the hard way. We actually called and paid with CCs, and they let us use more GC than you are allowed on the website, but I got the impression that they didn't have to do that.

Color me embarrassed! I could have sworn I scrolled down. Thanks for saving me a phone call!
 
You can use three forms of payment of a single transaction. So beware of what you are using. Combine your GCs beforehand. Customer Service should be able to do so as well.
 
Thanks all for the responses...I just ended up using a rewards card and settling for just the points rather than the gas perks (i know I could have done both)...but the interesting thing I wanted to share was I had a question an called WDW about it during my purchase. I specially said the the lovely cast member who was helping me "I want to get this taken care of before whatever happens on the 16th" her response was "oh yeah". I realize that could have meant absolutely nothing but I thought I would share.
