News Disney Explores Amazon Prime-Like Membership Program to Offer Discounts and Perks

Translation:
“How can we get people to pay us money for some of the same things they already get today?”

Nope.

I’m not against this.

I’m guessing it would be Disney+ and then whatever on top. In the UK maybe 10% off shopdisney, free delivery and early access to merch.

The version of this for DVC members I’ve heard before and basically moves all the direct perks like cheaper APs and discounts behind this paywall, sounds great for someone like me who bought resale.

A single service that cross promotes their business’ makes a lot of sense and something I think they should have done along time ago

 

[GhostHost1000]

Nope.

I hope that is the case.

If we give new we need to get new

…is everyone enjoying their expiring APs today?

You might want to talk to it/pet/tell it you love it while you still can

 

[Hakunamatata]

I wonder if it will have dining discounts attached.

Renewed already.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Renewed already.

What about next year?

So APs going completely and this new service maybe offering a small discount on day/ multi day tickets?

We shall see.

I have no idea…

But that was “rumored” around Disney I believe about 5 years ago? Pre-dating Covid.

The customers have not made the case for them to keep APs by the looks of it

I could see that for DL but WDW? Who do they think are going to keep the Epcot festivals going?

I did recently get a survey question about the perceived value of Disney+ versus Amazon Prime, and it asked my opinion on whether I believed additional perks should be given to Disney+ subscribers.

 

[dreday3]

If this is going to be based on what you buy/spend/vacations - can this be retroactive?

 

[TheGuyThatMakesSwords]

Bailing on all fronts... LT Transfers is already in the process of doing a gratuitous transfer of our DVC interests to my eldest son. I have no idea why he wanted this .

 

[erasure fan1]

No no, Disney is different, remember?

Well if you've been in the rising prices is just progress thread, Disney should just do whatever everyone else is doing now. Why blaze your own trail when you can just follow someone else's lead. Or so that's what I've been told.

 

[CaptinEO]

My thing is I'm a fan of themeparks, classic Disney, and classic Star Wars. I buy movies I like so Disney+ offers me nothing. (No way would I pay a subscription to watch a movie I already own).

I just want to visit their themeparks. I guess that's the point of this venture, to get people to pay for services they wouldn't normally buy.

 

[Indy_UK]

Surely an easy win would be that it includes Disney+ but also gave something like 2 for 1 cinema tickets on all Disney/ 20th century movies? That would increase Box office revenue and maybe slow people down from just waiting for it to be on Disney+

 

[Tom P.]

If Disney paid attention to the "fanbase" here on these forums, they would just shut the company down tomorrow and be done with it.

 

[mikejs78]

Nope.

Is this something you'd personally consider paying for?

 

[JoeCamel]

Sounds like a crack dealer offering a delivery service to the addicts.
Really dangerous for some fans
