Updated Disney Gift Card Deals and More

[FoxC63]

I purchased tix from UT last week using Paypal and Paypal's pay in 4 option. You can change your payment method with Paypal after the first payment processes, so you could essentially split your own payment using two cards

Thanks for posting! I've read a few articles and watched some videos but none really talk about switching payments specifically to VV & prepaid cards, have you done this with PayPal's Pay in 4?

Never heard of it before now. Just went and they don't have any Disney Gift Cards.

GiftCardDeals.com: How it Works
Buys and sells third party gift cards. Purchased GC are guaranteed for 60 days.

Maybe this might ring a bell:
There have been reports from DISer's with their Disney gc purchases, without reiterating you can read all about it: here and on the same thread others reported success.

Question on RMN. I had a purchase yesterday from Pandora that said doesn’t qualify Because the amount was 0. of course I was not expecting the cash back right away but don’t understand why it says 0 when I spent over $100. Anyone ever have something like that happen? I haven’t ever put a ticket in for thay site but might try.

Has any part of your order changed like backordered or an item cancelled? Put in a ticket after you receive your items. You might have to upload the shipping invoice which must match your original purchase.

I haven't. I've never used a VV with Paypal. If you can use a VV to make a regular purchase with Paypal, I think you could do it. Even if you can't set up auto payments with a VV or prepaid, you can make individual manual payments with any account that normally works with Paypal.
For example, I had payments set to autopay with my Chase card, but the next payment was scheduled for while we're at Disney, and I'd rather keep the entire limit available for travel related expenses, so I selected "make a payment, next payment" and made it from my checking account. The option was there to select from my wallet or add a payment method, so I think you could enter the VV or prepaid card there. The last payment is still set to autopay from the Chase card, but I could opt to make a manual payment again.

I think @dez1978 was trying to find a way to stack savings with VGC, that's how the whole conversation started with UCT & using PayPal

2-the Visa GC... I've never bought them. Only used the ones I earn on SB. I know I can use them to buy my universal tickets and stuff, but is there a better way to stack those?

From my understanding when using PayPal, Buy Now Pay Later option, debit cards need to be tied to your checking account and all cards need to be approved prior to purchase. I could be wrong as I've never used this service.

Again no one has mentioned using VV or prepaid cards with PayPal, Buy Now, Pay Later option and that's what we're looking for, confirmation. If anyone has been successful please share.

Just a head's up that Chase has a new 10% Shop Disney offer. I have it on both my Freedom and Southwest cards (nothing on my Disney card). It's good timing for me as I have runDisney registration days on Tuesday and then again 4/19.

Thanks for posting! Do you have an expiration date & spend?

 

[Turksmom]

I checked the Paypal site. You can not use it for recurring payments, so you couldn't set up Pay in 4, using a prepaid or VV.
Paypal prepaid cards
Curiosity won out. I used a prepaid Visa egc and made a $9 payment on my Pay in 4 plan. Worked with no issues!

Disney has stated that some existing private ground transportation reservations may be impacted due to unforeseen circumstances as well. Guests whose reservations have been affected will receive a phone call from a Disney representative if their reservation has been impacted.

They are out of stock now but get more in all the time. Several people here have purchased. I only
found out from this thread/board. Just wondering if anyone lately has gotten their shipment.

I’ve bought literally thousands and thousands of dollars in DGC from there. Never had a problem. You just do need to be aware that you have to contact them at 31 days out (not earlier) by chat or email to follow up on the order. But then they come by email a day or two later. Only once did I have to follow up a second time. Also, they come in stock frequently but sell out crazy fast. I sign up for email notifications when they are back in stock, and then I made the website’s email address a “favorite” on my phone so that I get a pop up notification when I get an email from them.

I don't get that, why? If you place an order and pay for it, the order should be fulfilled. Is this their policy?

Granted the issues were reported back in 2019 and beyond but it made many of us pause prior to purchasing. The link to @NMbaseballmom is one of many that we older DISers went through as a community and it gave us the foundation of Disney Gift Card Data Points; What to do if you get screwed. What happened with GiftCardDeals.com is a nightmare not wished on anyone. Yes, many have purchased without any issue but it's not 100% guaranteed and that can be said of any third party seller however, the Warning is tagged to this site specifically and should not be ignored or overlooked.

I will look at transportation board but confused by this. Does this include Mears and Sunshjne Flyer.

No. Just Mears and only if you booked it through Disney as part of a package. Jackie did explain it in the comments section of her article but the title itself is confusing.
