New Disney Visa "Inspire" card

[hhisc16]

Confirmed: spent 2k on wdw/hhi rooms and got 200 in rewards when statement closed. Plus the disney+ credit.

(Renewing annual pass in aug for ticket credit)

That's an interesting tip to increase room charges to help hit the $2k resort spend. That works for table service dining. Is there any way to charge to room for quick service dining and/or mobile orders?

I’m struggling to see how this would ever be better than just getting the 10% discount by paying with your card. Unless you’re able to convince the CM to give you the 10% discount AND let you charge it to the room.

It would really depend on where you are eating. The 10% discount is only offered at select sit down dining locations. Not dining at any of those? Better to let the room charge accumulate and see where you land.

That is an interesting point if the Chase Disney Visa is the only way you can get the dining discount. Some people have Annual Passes or MagicKey, or are DVC blue card and are eligible for a dining discount that way.

Most of the quick serve dining locations around WDW are not eligible for any dining discounts.

You don’t get 10% back on resort spending until you hit $2K. If you charge restaurants directly, they code as dining & not as resort spending. Without those extra restaurants & shopping charges, some people may not hit the $2K resort spend & might miss out on 10% for the actual resort room cost. If you add the dining & shopping to your room & pass $2K, you’ll get 10% back on the whole $2K.

If your resort costs more than $2K, or you’re past that in resort spending, yes, charge the Disney Visa directly for the discount.

If you add the dining & shopping to your room & pass $2K, you’ll get 10% back on all of it.

If your resort costs more than $2K, yes, charge the Disney Visa directly for the discount.

Well its not 10% back on all of it. It's 200 Reward Dollars and the 3% rewards. It will be different for everyone, a lot of it depending on where you eat.

Sorry, I saw my mistake & corrected it already.

Someone please help! I just renewed my annual pass (DVC Sorcerers Pass) which you have to call. I charged 200 dollars to the Visa but the pending transaction doesn't mention tickets in any way. Is this what other folks charges looked like? I'm worried it won't count as ticket spend.

 

[foodiddiedoo]

I just bought one yesterday. I’ll let you know if it triggers a $100 reward.

Did yours post to the card like this?

I renewed my DVC Sorcerers Pass last month and it looked just like that. Took about a week for it to trigger the $100 credit.

Yes it did

Thanks I freaked a bit when nothing denoted ticket or AP!

Well my plan is to get the DVC discount on dining, and then charge to my room and get this back.

I've never had a single problem with getting my DVC or AP discount and charging to the room.

Yes, that totally works for direct DVC members but not for resale members or non DVC folks who have to actually use the card at time of payment to get the discount.

Just clarifying, did your statement also close in that week timeframe?

It seems like the $100 ticket credit is posting 48 hours after the statement close with a "ticket" purchase from various DPs.

I renewed my AP on 2/6, the credit posted on 2/13, and my statement closed on 2/14.

My AP monthly charge did trigger the $100 statement credit even though it was classified as a subscription on the charge. I have 5 APs that we renewed in Nov that get financed over the year since we are FL residents.
