Ship Magicband+ to resort

[Brandis]

We're visiting Walt Disney World in September, staying at Copper Creek Villas. I read that you get a discount when ordering Magicbands before arriving at the resort. How can I have them shipped to the resort? In the order form, there is no way to select my resort, even though I'm logged in with the account linked to my booking.

Also, does the Disney Resorts package handling fee apply to this delivery as well?

You can't elect to have them sent to the resort. At one time, they would automatically send them to the resort if you ordered them 10 days or less prior to arrival, but I'm not sure they do that anymore.

Is there a reason you do not want them shipped to you? I know that if you wait until under 10 days, they will automatically be shipped to your resort, but, if I remember right, you will not be able to have them inscribed with your name.
There is no fee.

Unfortunately, they do not ship outside the US. Guess I have to wait then.

That's not true. If you order between 10-6 days prior to your arrival, they will ship to your resort and it will be inscribed with your name. I did that back in December, and again for my parents and friend just a few weeks ago. When you check in, you will need to ask for the magicbands - for some reason it doesn't show up in their system when you check in that you ordered magicbands.

All that said, sometimes the magicbands have pre-arrival discounts, sometimes they don't. If you're trying to order within that short window, your selection will be limited and may not be able to get the design you liked/saw weeks before ordering. It's a gamble, but I did get a design that I was happy with at a pre-arrival discounted price and had it delivered to the hotel.

And no, there's no handling fee to get the magicbands delivered to the hotel.

If I order 10 days before arrival will it say somewhere that they will be shipped to the resort or give me an option for that? Or will I just have to trust that they will show up at the resort?

Or should I enter the resort address, to be sure?

It's automatic, you don't have to put in the resort information. You will even get notification via email when your order ships to the resort And you should be good to go (no pairing necessary with your account) once you get it - everything will already be linked.
