Can you use your magic bands to pay for parking?

[Jeafl]

Or, do they take credit cards? I honestly can't remember. I must be getting old!

We are going to be there for 11 days and at $17 a day, that's a lot of cash needed if they don't let you charge it!

Don't you have to be staying onsite to have charging privileges? And if you're onsite, don't you get free parking?

If you're staying onsite you shouldn't have to pay to park unless you use the valet. In that case, I can't help you, but I'm sure someone will come along soon and help you out

Free theme park parking for Disney resort guests. If you're getting MagicBands, parking is a perk that will be checked at the lot, but doesn't involved charging.

We are staying offsite, but bought the magic bands online, mainly for convenience. Unfortunately, we still have to pay for parking.

I believe you only get charging privileges if you are staying onsite.

Good point. Is this true? I have not even thought of that!

well you can only use your magic band to charge things to your room if you are staying onsite and if you are staying onsite then you don't need to pay for parking.

since you are not staying onsite you cannot use your magic band to pay for parking or anything else.

If you are offsite you can not use your MB for charging.

Yes, off-site has no MagicBand charging. Charging is set-up at the Disney resort check-in desk, and it's tied in with your room charging privileges. It's not a CC access point for those staying off-site who have a CC. Without a Disney resort stay, there's no charging availability thru MagicBands.

Yes but you can't charge to the MB if staying offsite.

Thanks all! Does anyone know if you can charge your parking, or is it cash only?

 

[ModernArtist]

They take credit cards. You're good.

You can use a CC. Keep your parking receipt, as you can change lots during the same day for one fee.
