[EeyoreFan90]

Can anyone list the perks to having a Disney Visa and booking a trip with it?

The only thing I've found is early access to discount codes, the photo at Epcot, and using your reward dollars to pay things on your trip. We charge almost everything on that card and will be paying off a large chunk of our room only reservation with rewards dollars.

6 months interest free financing on vacation packages/rooms.

I think allears.net may have a list. But the link above is the best.

I haven't used any of the perks. I'd rather have a few bucks off memory maker than a free photo of some character I don't really care for.

However, I'm not paying much for this trip as I have been hoarding up my points. Probably will only have to pay for a couple of meals and souvenirs. I put everything on my card and pay it off every month.

You get to carry Darth Vader around in your wallet!

Some of the stores give you a discount on a $50 purchase. There are a few restaurants that give you a 10% discount, I know Trails End is one of them.

Like someone else said you get a meet and great at Epcot and Hollywood

Chase also does a lounge during food and wine with some free soft drinks and water. video games for the kids.

Love earning points to convert to money towards a trip/spending money!

Thanks for this info! I just got the Disney Chase card and had no idea about this perk. We will be going during F&W this year so I'll be on the lookout for this!

Oh I did forget the 10% off at World of Disney but have also been able to use it at the Emporium in MK. That lounge was spectacular!

I get "I like your card" almost everywhere I use it.

Yes love this. If you know you will pay in full before paying any interest (before 6 months is up) this is a good deal as you will earn the Disney dollars. I try to have the trip money sitting in the bank but charge on my card to earn my Disney dollars-extra$20-40 for using in parks usually for Dining or dining gratuity.

When kids were younger, we used the free photo at Epcot. Now usually don't take the time but it IS a nice perk (one we did was great: had minnie, mickey, donald & goofy)

Often the DisneyVIsa has certain stores (like Downtown Disney the big one there and MouseGears) if you charge $50 or more you receive 10% off. Check the website. I think I have done that once.

(oh just saw someone posted --"World of Disney" and The Emporium did that 10% too....)

We were able to get free dining a week before it was available to the public due to having the card - a perk I wasn't aware of until my Travel Agent alerted me And I don't mean book a week earlier, the free dining became effective a week earlier for us in August, if that makes sense. It was supposed to start the day after we left, but instead we got it to start the day after we arrive

 

[BeckyEsq]

Has anyone done the Star Wars Meet and Greet? What characters are there?

 

[blemon]

The meet and greet is Rilo Ken.

And how did you get info on the free dining, etc? I never hear about any of this?

I feel like I have also been alerted to Disney Visa resort deals/code discounts a week or so before open to general public. The benefit to this, I suppose is that only a certain number of rooms per resort is allotted to these deals so you may be more certain to getting the type of room you are looking for at your preferred resort for your dates.

I think I may have received an email and/or possibly a mailer from DisneyVISa. However, when I am booking (and even after I book as many here know, you can often retroactively have discounts applied and receive money back) I am often checking and rechecking Disney's site and DisneyVisa for "deals".

Correct. Our travel agent for a 2013 trip was able to get us the DDP for $100 per person for our 6 day stay. She was alerted about 2 days in advance and was ready to go when it became bookable.
