I know there is a website that lists the advertised discounts with Disney Visa but I was wondering if there is a list of the unadvertised discounts or if we could put one together. Friends of mine visited WDW a few years back and said they asked about discounts everywhere they spent money and were told yes to some locations not mentioned on the Disney Visa site. Not sure how often things like change but I would like to get the most out of my Disney Visa and compiling a list would help a lot!!
 
I'm confused. A discount is offered to get your business on the credit card. Why wouldn't they advertise those discounts?

I think the OP is talking about the perks associated with the card. In addition to the free photo shoot with characters (in Epcot, I believe?), they also offer discounts of 10%-20%, depending on the location, on Disney's behind the scenes tours, at quite a few onsite restaurants (Jiko, Boma, Wave, among others), discounts on some of the recreation activities (boat rental, mini golf), etc., when you pay with your Disney VISA card. The catch is that you HAVE TO ASK FOR THE DISCOUNT. They won't automatically apply it. Do you have any idea of how much money we could have saved at Boma over the years, if I'd only known this!! :sad:

Thanks! That makes sense to me :). I love the Character photo over in Epcot. We stop there and get our freebie every trip.

Deb Wills over on All Ears has a nice PDF of all the dining discounts. I print it out on cardstock and bring it with us on every trip: http://allears.net/pl/disc_dining.pdf
 
What is the cardholder discount with mini golf and boating? Is there a bike rental one too?
 
Great information! Thanks so much OP for asking and others for sharing!!
