MDE Multiple Accounts Question!

[pascalspal]

I am going to Disney with my friend soon and had a few questions about the MDE app that I would like to find some answers for! I have booked a room and ticket package under my account and paid the deposit. I will likely just have my friend venmo me her half and I will pay everything from my card. When I was booking this package, I had to select my guest and I inputted my friend's name and that she is 18+. When I go to the website or the app, it now shows: "friend's name (plans managed by me).

Ultimately I am wondering about some park logistics. I know we will both want to use our apple watches to scan into the park and would like too use these as payment options too. Is it an option for my friend to make her own MDE account and link to my reservation somehow? That way she could store her own credit card on her app for payment, but also have access to her park ticket that I booked?

Or is our only option for her to be signed into my MDE app and pay by actually using her credit card at each stop since mine will be linked in my account?

Hopefully that makes sense! I am happy to clarify if it doesn't! Thanks!

She can create her own MDE account. You can then send her a friend request to her linked emailed address via your MDE. Once she accepts the friend request, she should be able to see the reservation and tickets in her own MDE.

thank you, thank you! I figured it was a simple process like this, but I didnt want to start clicking around and accidentally mess something up.

Once she accepts the friend request, her ticket will be transferred to her account. You will no longer be able to see it. Don't panic when it disappears.

Also, make sure both of you click the boxes to share all plans. Otherwise, you won't see things the other set up.

Thanks for this info! I definitely would have panicked a little if I hadn't known!

Everything mentioned above, plus if that doesn't work out, I recommend using the chat feature on the website to sort it out.

It was relatively quick to fix and without any waiting on the phone.
It shouldn't be a problem, when following the steps above, but having encountered an issue with one person having an account and being managed by someone else simultaneously and therefore having problems...just wanted to throw out that there's no need to worry. It can be resolved.

Thanks so much for this! Have been hearing good things about the chat feature recently!
