Disney Gift Card Deals

Yep, all I bought was one $100 gift card.

E-card or physical?

ETA:I see someone was successful with e-GC. Any positive DPs with physical GC? I want a cute design.

I bought two $50 physical ones and mine is pending.

Physical. I got a Tianna card. I'm so excited to finally have a card that doesn't have Mickey on it. Love the guy, but it's monotonous.

Okay, so the gift card option just isn't showing up for me. It's supposed to be above the "Disney Rewards Redemption" option, but it isn't there. I'm guessing its some kind of a glitch. I tried just filling my cart with merchandise in case it was the system blocking me from buying a GC with a GC, but that didn't change anything.

Are you trying to pay for a Disney gift card on shopdisney with another Disney gift card? If you are, it will not work. You can use a Disney rewards card from your Disney Chase, but not a regular gift card.

Even just buying regular merchandise, the GC option won't load.

I have a pending credit from both a physical card and an e-card.

Shopdisney doesn't allow you to pay for a gift card with a gift card. I tried a few month ago when I had a ton of the plain $50 cards from bj's. I tried all different kind of ways and it wouldn't allow me to use the gc until I placed the gift card I was trying to purchase to save for later

If you have or had a gift card in your cart you might need to exit the site and go back in. Adding a gift card to the cart takes the GC payment option away. If you empty your cart, exit the site and re-add just the merchandise you should have the option to pay with GC.

Thank you for the BJs heads up. I just saved $402.50, which $227.50 of that was due to the bulk discount.

Reporting a newbie mistake so other don't make it. I saved up about $700 in discounted GCs. Around day 5 of our 7 day trip I went to front desk and had them apply the gift card to my folio. She did and handed the GC back to me (but I can't find it). WDW had issues with end of trip folios going out to people last weekend and I called today to get it emailed to me. When I reviewed it there was only a random $63.17 credit to my folio from the gift card. Everything else went to my CC. HUH...makes no sense.

I then when online to check my GC balance - yep still over $600 on it.

What happened was Disney had just swept my folio balance over to my credit card mid stay. So, when the CM applied my gift card, my balance at the time was only $63.17. Thus that is all they took from the gift card.

I haven't decided yet if I will call and see if they can reverse the credit card charges and apply the gift card instead. Seems like a hassle.

BUT........What I am most thankful for at this moment is that you all taught me how to register my GCs and consolidate them on the DGC site. If I hadn't done that and I never find that GC then I would have really been SOL. At least now I can just go buy a small one somewhere and transfer that balance to it. Thank you for teaching me that trick!

That stinks! They should be able to switch it with minor hassle though.

wow! how much did you purchase?

That's great! Do we know if this is targeted only to those receiving the emails?

 

[elsbit]

After reading here, I researched it on the internet and confirmed that you can email the gentleman listed in the previous posts. I had a BJs online account from black Friday last year, but had never received any emails. After emailing with them, I was advised that I could place an order and then email them my order #. The bulk price is what is previously posted. I purchased 35 $150 gift card sets because that set offered the highest discount. So basically, it was $11.50 off per set. I have a 0% credit card rate that is good for a year, so while I am not getting any additional rewards, I am not being charged interest and didn't foot the bill upfront.

I will consolidate them on the Disney gift card website before calling in my payment for our planned trip. I am ok having this amount in D gc because it is being used.

Anyone have experience with RMN pending rewards not going through by the date they’re supposed to be posted? I have two purchases from February from different retailers that were supposed to post yesterday, but they’re still pending.

I usually get mine the day after they say it will post. If they say the 18th, I get it on the 19th. See if you get it today.

The same for me. It always shows up the day AFTER it's listed!

Well pooh. I've never noticed cute physical disney gift cards. I want a cute one too!

Thank you. Never saw all these terrific designs before. I want to buy a couple but only put a low amount in, buy Target discount cards and transfer over on the card website.

Would you know if there a charge to buy gift cards and have them sent to the buyer?

That is a good move. I think I will do the same. There is no charge for the gift cards themselves but since they have to mail them, if you only buy one there is shipping, I believe. If you spend $75 then shipping is free with the code shipmagic. I just saw $50 gift cards but I didn't look too closely, either.

Lowest amount you can buy is $25 and it goes up to $500.
