New Annual Passholder! (questions)

[coinkc]

I JUST PURCHASED AN ANNUAL PASS! WOO HOO!!!!

My questions are...will I be getting something in the mail or is it strictly a will call thing that I need to pick up when I get to WDW? I know the MagicBand won't come until after I activate the pass which won't be for a few months but didn't know if I should be on the lookout for any paperwork or anything.

Also, is there a way to sign up to receive notices of annual passholder discounts if they become available?

Thanks for the help!

You should have been able to choose during the checkout process if you wanted will call, print at home, or mailed certificates. If you do get something mailed, it'll be green plastic cards that say "Exchange Certificate." Otherwise, you'll receive an email with either a confirmation number for will call (it'll be formatted ABCD12345678) or an orange button that says "Print your e-Certificate." (E-certs might only be for FL resident passes, I've never actually bought one so I'm not sure.)

When you activate your pass, the CM doing the transaction will likely ask you for an email address. Give them one and you'll get passholder emails. You may have been asked for it during the online process as well - sometimes I see them with the email already filled in, sometimes not.
