Can I buy new WDW annual passes from Disney.com, so that I can receive MyPoints?

I was planning on ordering my tickets thru the Disney Store, but if I can purchase them online and get points at MyPoints, that would be even better.

Can I do that?

Thanks,
Kris
 
I just went and check the Disneystore.com, and they do not offer WDW APs or hoppers online. Disneyworld.com and Disneyland.com do offer them, but I'm sure they don't have a portal through MyPoints.
 
You cannot get passes online. However, you can buy gift certificates at disneystore.com through MyPoints and use them to buy passes at the Disney Store.

2 things have to happen.

#1- and most important make sure they take GCs for passes at your store

Call your local dis store and talk to a manager (get a name) and make sure you can use GC's to buy passes. This is very important(you could get stuck with a lot of money you have to spend at dis store). I called 3 stores they all said yes. Then when I went to buy them a 1 store they said yes as well (I didn't buy them at that store when I realized I would have to come back a month later to pick them up(we were not at our local one)). Then a couple of days later at the one closer to our house when I did order them they said it was no problem, and again when I picked the up no problem, paid in full with GCs.

*******

#2- MyPoints has to come through for you and award your points. This to me was not such a big deal, because if they did not, I was not really out anything.(as long as DS took GCs)

------------

This is exactly what I did this during the last double points promotion. I bought $1000 worth of GCs (used my CC to get $10 cash back), bought our APs. About 1 month later, no points. Emailed MyPoints and within days... 4000pts. -about $32 worth of points.

So I got about $42 out of it. The only thing that I could have done better was to wait a couple of months and see if a Disney Store promotion came along like it did last year (buy AP get $50 GC) or Spend $50 get a free T-shirt etc...


Any Questions?
