RFID. You can even read the FCC filings for the MagicBands.

Both, actually.
And yes, it's in the FCC filings.

I've tracked down the FCC filings for the tracking units as well, but I posted that a long time ago and don't have the links handy.
But, they are somewhere on the board from about 2-3 years ago.
There's a short range RFID chip that is used for short distance "contact" transactions (like room doors, ticket and purchases).
There's a long range Bluetooth LE that is (or will be, potentially) used for the traffic shaping and guest tracking features.
