Question about DVA account

[alldiz]

HI,
I am opening a DVA account and it is asking me what I want to save for. I am most likely using it
for DCL(April 2016) which is an option. But I might use it for buying my AP's for my WDW November 15 trip.

Does it matter what I indicate I am saving for if I use it for something else.
Thanks
Kerri

Is there a reason this is better than traditional savings methods?

OP, you might want to hold off. People were having problems this weekend: http://www.disboards.com/threads/a-warning-for-dva-account-holders.3414701/

Is there a reason this is better than traditional savings methods?

There's a $20 bonus for every $1000 spent through the DVA. People buy Disney GC at a discount and load it into the DVA.
