Magic Band and charging to resort room

[Nana2Callie]

What can still be charged to your room via magic band?

 

[Robo]

Same things as always.
Virtually everything sold by Disney at WDW.

Everything you buy from food/alcohol to merchandise you can still scan with your magic band. You don’t really get an invoice until the last day or after your vacation so you should somewhat monitor what you’re spending. In our case they charged some things immediately (ADR) then refunded us and put it on our final bill.

Not that I've seen, but they are available in the MDE mobile app.

We charged everything just as we have on other trips. No change that we noticed.

Didn't see that channel in the resorts.

Didn't they pre charge your card before for something like $100 and then when you got close to that another pre charge of $100? Has that changed and went back to the old way of just charging to your room and then paying?

Thats not related to the Magicband specifically, but resort policy.
Per WDW:
On the day of arrival, Resort hotels will place an authorization hold on your card for any balance due on the reservation—plus $100 for estimated incidental expenses. If your spending exceeds the original $100 hold, additional incremental holds will automatically be obtained. The authorization holds on the card will not exceed the current balance due plus $100.

What about mobile ordering? I thought this was required at many QS and had to be paid for through the app?

When you mobile order food, you pay with the CC linked to the mobile app or you can enter a Disney Gift Card Number during check out. If using an iPhone, you can also use Apple Pay.
