Gift Cards/Disney Springs Question

[Duck143]

I was wondering if anyone knows which stores accept Disney Gift Cards at Disney Springs? Is there a list somewhere? My Mother's birthday is coming up and I'm wondering if she'll be able to use gift cards at the Lilly Pulitzer store.

Thanks!!

Only the Disney owned and operated stores at Disney Springs are "a given" for accepting Disney Gift Cards. The 3rd party stores may or may not accept them, and that changes all the time. Those stores have to sign up with Disney to access the Disney payment systems. And Disney charges a fee for that. Giftcard system is separate from the MB charging system, so there are multiple fees, potentially, and a lot of the stores opt to just not do it. I've never seen a list from Disney. The Disney web site just says "participating locations" without giving details. I know the Vera Bradley store does accept giftcards - or did last October. We had a nice chat with the store manager which is where the info above comes from.

You pretty much have to ask at the store when you get there (or call them). Not particularly helpful to you, I know, but kind of the reality of the situation.

Ditto the PP. We were there in August and we were able to use magic bands to pay at certain non disney type stores like Uniqlo and a few others that aren't affiliated with WDW. it just varies on who decides to participate and who doesn't. I think you can request a list from WDW guest services by calling them. Good luck.

Thank you for your help on this! I will call Lilly before we go to see if they take the gift cards. Otherwise, I'm sure my mother will have a fantastic time spending them at the Disney stores on Dooneys
