You’ve explain how to order a Rewards Redemption Card. While it acts much like a Disney Gift Card, it is not the same. As mentioned above, once the credit card account is closed, so is the Rewards Redemption Card and any unspent value remaining is lost.
If you haven’t done so already, you need to transfer your reward points to a Rewards Redemption Card. Once you have that, you can order a Disney Gift Card from shopdisney.com or a physical
DisneyStore location, using the Rewards Redemption Card as payment.
