paying via disney gift card when calling to purchase

[jina]

I'd like to buy Halloween Party tickets and some tour tickets using a Disney gift card - if I call Disney to purchase, do they accept gift cards? I'm surprised they don't accept them online. I'd heard horror stories of being on hold for hours so I'm hoping to save time if the answer is no. I know I could wait until my trip in 6 months and use the card to pay my resort bill but I'd prefer not to have to pay for today's expenses on my credit card right now. TIA!

It says right on the website that you can use a gift card when buying the party tickets:

You can use each of these payment methods: a Disney® Visa® credit or debit card or another credit or debit card, a Disney Gift Card or Disney Vacation account, and a Disney Rewards Redemption Card.

You just have to go through the prompts to get to the gift card section. If you still have trouble then go ahead and call in. They won't make you wait for hours when you are purchasing tickets.
