Where can you not use debit cards?

[alwdisney2]

Hi! Our kids are going to Disney next week with their HS marching band and they are only being provided with one counter service meal a day. Many parents are sending VISA debit cards or Disney Rewards dollars cards.

Where in the parks will they NOT be able to use these two forms of payment?

Thanks.

They should be able to use the cards at any store or restaurant (table service or counter service) ... some of the snack carts can accept cards, and NONE of the walk around vendors (for example: the balloon sellers on main st are cash only)

I have never had a problem using my debit card with the exception of the carts/balloon vendors who are in the streets at parade and fireworks time -who obviously would have no way to run a card. I use them to buy water/snacks at the little "kiosks" throughout the parks, in stores, restaurants, etc.

I honestly can't think of anywhere they can't.

Thank you all very much. I will forward this info to the other parents. I really appreciate the help everyone provides on this forum.

Only 8 days until out plane takes off.

The wine cart in France on accepts cash. Not for the students, of course, but for the chaparones.

there are a few carts/stands that don't take them, mainly in World Showcase. I think Coffee between Canada and UK is one of them.

We weren't able to use our room key or credit card at the barber shop on Main Street when we went last year. We didn't go there this year so I'm not sure if that's changed or not. They use an old fashioned cash register...

THey did when we went one year to the Barber shop, but it is done by hand. Fill out the credit card slip by hand,

You can't use debit cards as a debit, it will be used as a credit card. There is no where to enter a PIN, or request cash back at the registers.

I asked a manager (who happened to serve me) at little place that sells egg rolls at the AK. She said it varied but most all of the bigger stands take credit/debit but some of the little carts don't.

The only place I haven't been able to use my debit has been the kaki gori stand in Japan and the walk around vendors.
