Membership Magic Beyond - Park Tickets - discount question

[noisykid]

We just became DVC members and I was looking through more ways to save and came across the Membership Magic Beyond benefits package for $99, and I saw this sheet that outlines the Park Ticket discounts when you have MMB.

It clearly says Weekday tickets at the top, but the dates listed have plenty of weekend days included. Can anyone provide some clarity on how this works? We would actually want to use Park Tickets from Tues 11/11/25 thru Sun 11/16/25. That's 5 days starting on 11/11 which it shows is $725 for a Park Hopper. So are we able to do that and go in the parks on that Sat & Sun?

You can not use them over the weekend, but they have the ranges based on start date of the tickets to show which weekdays go with which rate.

Plus, you can use them end of one week and beginning of the other.

Unfortunately it is weekdays only. It can be a nice option if you want resort only days or to utilize free water park day.

I still think MMB is worth it. I haven't even bought one time use points yet and it paid for itself with memory maker on one of my trips.

Reviving this for a question - is there any insight to a 2026 MMB becoming available? We are looking at going to disneyland on 1/2 through 1/4, it looks like the current MMB would only give us tickets through 1/3, trying to see if it makes sense to wait until 2026 and get a ticket that would work for all days.

Nothing has been announced yet. I hope they keep it going.

I have the same question since I'm planning a February DL trip and would love to know if those tickets discounts (and, indeed, the entire program) will be available. I've alreadyd used MMB for the memory maker, shorter lounge time / photo op, and 48 OTU points at $10 each. Thinking very seriously about the Sorcery Pass. Getting those DL tickets will be icing on the cake!

For the DL tickets, they must be purchased by 12/31 and the ticket usage window ends 1/3/26. At least for the 2025 program year, you might need to sign up for the 2026 program year. Also, you only get a max of 24 OTUP per membership, so its really a buy 12 OTUP, get 12 free.

I think what isn't clear is once they roll out the 2026 program, whether 2025 members will be able to buy discounted tickets for 2026 dates. If that's the case, I can get more value out of my 2025 membership.

Also you get 24 OTUP per membership per UY. I bought 24 points for 2024 (12 for $20/ea + 12 free) and 24 more for my 2025 UY. Having a December UY helped.

Wait, help me understand this better. 1) Were you able to apply the discount to both purchases? Or did the second purchase happen at $20/pt? 2) Do you have multiple Use Years? Or are you saying you can buy 24 points in 2024 before your UY, then another 24 after your UY? Can you apply the discount to both purchases, since MMB is based on a calendar year?

I had to log in just to say I love your avatar name !
And Welcome !
BLT is my Home…I have 2 small contracts and also would like to know if I can buy another bonus perk with member beyond for extra points., especially considering I currently only have one point !
August is my Use Year.
I guess I would have to spend another $99 and 12x$20 = 240… So I have to factor that in too.
I know the points have to be used by the end of they year but they would be good for a reservation I can make now for next year.
When I purchased my other member perk …I searched specifically to find something for 24 points . That way it would be easier to keep track of them if I
needed to make any changes.
Member Services will assign them in your profile with a different “ home resort” …I think that is also the only way they can keep track of their usage online.
So far awhile it would look like I also had a contract at Grand Californian Villas in my profile.
In reality, they are purchasing that bonus with points that have been created when we don’t use our home resort points . So they are limited to availability .
I guess I got somebody’s points that had VGC as their home resort.

I hope somebody else has the answer we need about being able to buy more than one MMB .
By the way, the only 24 point reservation I could find was a random Saturday night at the Fort Wilderness. It did help keep track of them by doing it that way.

You can only use the MMB OTUP discount once per benefit year, even if your use year rolls over during the benefit year.

Yes, I applied the discount to both purchases. Technically it's always $20/pt and you just either get free extra points or not. But I got BOGO on both purchases. I spent $240 a few months ago and received 24 points. Then I did it a second time last month- $240 for 24 more. Same MMB membership (we only have one). Same UY (we have two but only one has direct points).

I used it twice. I just called MS and they put me on hold to research. Came back and said yes, it's allowed. They even swapped the points into an existing reservation for me, no dummy reservation needed.

One final detail that might matter- the points were used for 2026. With a December UY, my first 24 were spent on a November '25 reservation. The second 24 were spent on a January '26 booking. I still think I could have used the second of BOGO points for a December reservation, though.

Happy for someone to point to rules that say otherwise but there are at least two cast members who agreed this was allowed.

I just bought points last week for a reservation I will be using, no dummy. I was specifically asked by the Member Services CM if I had already purchased for any other reservation. My use year is October. Makes me think they don't 'see' everything when you are buying the discounted points. I also received points from Grand Californian and Kidani.

Hey if they told you it's allowed, it's all good. The way I read the program's description however, you can only get 12 BOGO OTUP per benefit year (and there has only been one benefit year for the program so far).

I'm guessing it slipped through. Nice perk for the member as they gave what appeared to be accurate info based on MS's actions.

editing: Same UY (we have two but only one has direct points).

I missed this line earlier. Hasn't someone else posted somewhere that because they had 2 use years they were able to either add another MMB membership for a family member/co owner or buy points for each use year and since they had direct points in one use year that qualified them, or am I dreaming?

I mean, I'm sure I'm good but I'm still scratching my head whether it was truly allowed or not I called and said "hey I already got my BOGO points for my '24 UY, can I buy some for my '25 UY." She said something like "that's such an interesting question, let me do some research while I put you on hold." I phrased my question as being unsure since I too thought I'd read you could only get the BOGO points once per program year.

Not sure I follow- are you saying you also bought BOGO points twice this year or that it sounded like you couldn't?
And I received Grand Californian and Old Key West.

No, I only bought them once and actually only could use them once. I was thinking they were now just double checking. From reading on this website it appeared you could buy once with one use year and one membership.

However you have 2 use years, even though one is not direct, so that may have been a contributing factor.

We are pretty used to getting a variety of answers. I'm happy you were able to get the extra set of points!
