split stay and magic bands

[disneyred]

its been quite a while since I have been to disney and now I am slowly reading up on these magic bands..
If doing a split stay first at POP then over to BC, do you get 2 sets of magic bands..
pick up at POP, then checking into BC will get another set ?
thanks.

Since you can't order bands ahead of time being outside the US, you will be offered bands at each check-in. You can still customize them on MDX (colors/personalization).

You'll get 2 sets and they'll be mailed to your home ahead of time if you're within the USA.

ok.. so now to my understanding .. is this correct ?

when I log onto disney site... I make sure my address is correct (its in Canada)..
I customize the bands ..

since I do live in Canada, as they see from my address... they will ship
the customized magic bands to my resort instead of to my home.

MyDisneyExperience. Some write MDE (abbreviation) while others write MDX (abbreviation then the sound of the last word).

Basically, just your account on disneyworld.com.

Yes.

The MBs will work interchangably at the resorts. No need to fret about which one is "for" which resort. As long as a glitch doesn't happen, they will all work just fine.

They won't ship outside the US so they will not ship them to you in Canada. You will pick them up at the resort when you arrive.

We did a split stay last year we picked up our first bands at pop and then then our second at POR.
Once we got to POR we used whichever band came to hand first and they worked fine.
I had my old one from 2013 with me as well and even it worked.
We liked that we could customise both sets so we had plenty colour options.
