Help confused

[OzzieDisneyTragic]

good morning all my fellow Disney fans, I'm busy trying to plan a very belated honeymoon for myself and HH and I been reading the magic band conditions etc now it say they have to be linked to a credit card. Now does anybody know if they except travel credit cards for this ? Of it a master or vista debt card works? Or does it have to be a credit card/ credit card

now it say they have to be linked to a credit card

For charging privileges they do - can't see any other reason that you "have" to have a credit card

I gather it was so I could charge things to the room which I very much plan todo but do you know if it can be a travel type card

 

[CAPTAIN HOOK]

but do you know if it can be a travel type card

I'm honestly unsure what a "travel credit card" is !!!

If it's a real credit card (you're billed at the end of the month) then yes, they'll accept it.
If it's a pre-loaded card (you put cash on the card in a shop/bank to avoid carrying cash around) then no as it's not a credit card and if you try and charge to your room over and above the limit on the card Disney can't recoup that overspend.
If it's anything else you'll need to explain

I use a travel card as coming from the UK its easier than carrying dollars around. its a pre-loaded card and it works fine. Think it all depends on the type of travel card as mine is a mastercard.

Both. It's linked to my magic band to allow charges for my length of stay.

Oh now that interesting

Yes you can use a pre loaded card.
I've often used my pre loaded Google wallet card because it alerted me right away before I got my credit card.

Just he careful because many prepaid cards will automatically charge an additional 15% on hotel charges. So if you make $100 worth of purchases, some prepaid will automatically hold $115 until the hotel pushes through the final charge.
