We have been Disney Visa card holders for a while and have always wanted to do the special meet and greet at Epcot, but for some reason it never happens. Can anyone give me some details about this? Thanks!

Sure. Go into Innoventions West and look for the small sign for the Chase Disney Rewards Cardmembers Meet & Greet. It's best if you go in the entrance by the fire truck and head in and it will be on your right. Or you can go in and find the video games on the wall and it will be just to your right. You get in the line, show them your card when you get up there, go in and get your picture with 2 of the fab 4. They don't tell you who because they may have a break or make a change during your wait. It's always a surprise. You'll get all the time you want(within reason) in there with them and the pictures will go on your PhotoPass card. You can then go to the Photo center by SSE to get your photo. You can add all the little borders etc, for no cost.
We get them every trip to Epcot, meaning multiple free pictures per trip, but only one per day.

We do it every time. Don't go when it first opens as there is always a long line. It does go quickly though. Wait a little then go there will be no waiting. We usually get Minnie and Goofy but once got Mickey and Minnie which was rare. Its still a good picture either way. On your way out stop at the Photo Center and show them your photopass and they let you pick which picture you want (they take a few) then your allowed to add boarders to your pictures and when your done the print it out for you. Easy to do! Use to be 1pm to 4pm but now 1pm to 6pm I believe.

It's free, it's simple, and it's...free. Did I mention free?
Avoid any line, as there is none throughout much of the day. We had it done a few weeks ago, and it was so empty that the attendants outside made us wait a moment in order to tell the characters inside to get ready. I expected cigarette smoke in the air with the characters trying to wave it away with their arms, but it didn't happen.

They actually extended it from 1-7 - it is a nice, non-rushed experience.

Hello!
I wanted to check and see of anyone has done this recently?
Is it still in the same location from 1pm-7pm?
Also, what if you don't have a photo pass card? Is there still a way to get the pictures?
Thanks in advance! We're down to 15 days!!

Yes, they give you a paper voucher to get your free copy. Last time we went the line was non existent, but getting the picture printed took forever bc people were picking through their photopass pictures.

Great, thanks for the info!
We will definitely be heading to Innoventions West for our picture!
And the photo center to get the picture printed is right there as well?

It is 1pm to 7pm. If you don't have a Photopass card, the CM will give you one. The card itself is free, and there is no charge for them to take your pictures, you need to pay if you want to buy them. When you check in the with CM in front of the M&G, you will need to show them your Disney Visa, and they will give you a coupon that you take to the camera center. That coupon is good for one free 5x7 of one of the pictures taken during the photo session.
The photo center is on your right hand side as you go under Spaceship Earth. Opposite Gateway Gifts, before the restrooms and lockers.

This was about three weeks ago. It was fun and did not take long. Get in line, show your Disney Visa then redeem at photo center. We picked ours up about an hour later. They let you look at the photos and pick the one you like best, then they print it out right there. You can see your other photo pass pics and purchase any of them if you would like. We just took the freebie.

Does any one know of this hospitality suite that somebody spoke of recently in their TR for Visa Card holders upstairs at the American pavilion?

Get one from any photo pass photographer or you can get one at the Visa location there in Epcot.

@dreamfinder and @epcotisbest thank you both for the info (@epcotisbest , thanks for the photo too!) it's nice to see it has a fun background!!
Not sure what I was expecting, but it looks like a fun picture!
I don't plan on getting a photo pass card so I'll just have to get the voucher from the CM.
Thanks so much!!
