Digital Membership Cards?

I’ve been DVC since 2011 when I purchased 100 points at AKL via resale and have always had a “blue card”. I’m seeing the DVC ND designation. Does this mean I am losing my “grandfathered in” status as a blue card holder?

No. We have no confirmation on what the ND stands for. Could mean Not-Direct and have nothing to do with blue card status. Too many unknowns right now.

We're all just guessing at this point and things are just rolling out. DVC hasn't said anything yet so I wouldn't be worried about grandfathering going away.

No one knows yet. Typical Disney fashion, give just enough details for rampant speculation but not enough to know what’s going on for sure haha
 

Are these tags iphone specific? I'm one of the 75% of the planet people that uses android. Under MyProfile, Membership & Passes, it correctly shows that I am a DVC member, and I can see my upcoming reservations, so it appears to have linked to my MDE. Under MagicMobile, I just get a generic pass. In Google Pay, it shows the same generic pass. ?

I use Android and when you click on details in your wallet it should show the tags (mine shows DVC Y and Annual).
 
Not sure what the MDE site is actually showing but my guess is the update is not completed. On the DVC site when I go to My Dashboard under My DVC, the top line of the Dashboard, "My Memberships," shows an entry for "Membership Card/Identification," and when I go there and then click "View Temporary Card," an actual image of a blue card in my name comes up that expires "02-02-2022," indicating that whatever update that is being done to show one's status on the MDE account may still be a work in progress. And if you are going to WDW in the very near future, I would suggest that you take with you a copy of that blue card image if you are a blue card member entitled to discounts.

I am a total mixed bag. Purchased direct first, have added both direct and resale with multiple memberships (UYs). In MDE, I added my initial credential for the direct purchase back in 2016 (I notice it is neither membership number nor contract number).
My MagicMobile was created and added to my iPhone wallet back in May of 2021. I just looked, and these are my afflictions:
On my MDE profile, it shows I am a So Cal resident hence the geographic? I have WDW AP, main entrance pass, Disney visa, castaway cay member.
I reduced the font size to the smallest but still can’t see the full entry in affiliation 😝

I have 2 resale contracts that are grandfathered in as well and my affiliation is the same as yours on the magic mobile pass. I don’t think they would remove our discounts.

Question for any white card holders. Are you able to choose the Blue DVC member digital card? I have to delete and retry as others have had to do so I will have my affiliations, but I’m wondering if I delete if I may lose the digital member card option since I’m white card.
 
I have Grandfathered, direct and non-grandfathered and mine shows DVC Y.

I was able to select a different image for my Android device. It's not until I select to open it on Google Pay that I can see what it was though. Until I open it up looks generic.

I believe the DVC icon option for MagicMobile has nothing to do with blue or white card members, just that you have your DVC account linked to MDE. I'm a white card/resale only member and no matter what icon I have for MagicMobile it shows my DVC affiliation in the details of my Google Pay wallet as "DVC ND." What that actually means remains to be seen since DVC hasn't said anything yet.
 
What ran thru my mind is the question if the programmers knew that there are grandfathered members or if they were only told 150 points direct for discounts?

I agree that it is likely just not recognizing the resale only blue card status. It's not requiring 150 direct though as I only have 25 direct and mine shows DVC Y.

I should have asked if you see the "change pass style" directly on the pass under Magic Mobile? That's where I changed the style. Am able to change it at will and it updates in Google Pay.
 
We have a grandfathered resale (blue card) and a recent small add on.

Our Affiliation shows - DVC ND

Haven't tried to remove and reinstall from My Wallet yet......

Some one else mentioned their profile only showed the last resell purchase and not the prior resell that was grandfathered in. It may have only taken into consideration your last purchase and that will require you contact someone to have it updated to show all your purchases?
