The Mobile Order feature on the My Disney Experience app has become a popular and widely used feature on the app. Later today the app will be getting an update and it will include a long awaited option for the Mobile Order feature.
The latest feature that will be added is the ability for guests to use their Disney Dining Plan credits towards orders placed through the Mobile Order feature. As of right now, the app still says it only accepts credit cards, but the update should be released later today, according to Disney. Once the update goes through, guests will be able to use dining credits towards orders made through the app.
Disney has been improving the My Disney Experience app quite a bit lately and this latest update is further improvement. Lots of guests use the Disney Dining Plan, so it was a little frustrating for those that wanted to use the Mobile Order feature, but couldn’t use their credits.
Check out Disney’s video to see how the update will work.
How it Works
- Click Your Icon Picture
- Click “Order Food”
- Pick Your Restaurant
- Pick Your Menu Items (Click Add to Add Items)
- Customize Your Order (if you want)
- Click “View My Order” When Ready to Purchase
- Click “Review Order Summary” (You will have the option to use Dining Plan credits or pay with a card)
- Purchase Your Order
When you are ready to pick up your order just go back into the app and click “I’m Here, Prepare My Order” and they will start making your order. You will get notified when your order is ready. The restaurants have a separate line for Mobile Order purchases and there will be a sign that says “Mobile Order Pick Up.”
So you can order something while you are in line for a ride and not have to pick it up right away. That’s the really helpful thing about this feature, it allows you to order ahead of time and pick up when you are ready.
Currently, Disney has 23 locations around Disney World property where mobile ordering is available.

As I said above, Disney will be releasing this update later today (1/31/2018). I’m not seeing an update yet, but will keep checking. I think this is a great option to be added to the Mobile Order feature!

I love all things Disney, but my main love is for Disney World and I'm always planning for the next trip. Before becoming a Disney blogger, I was a radio DJ, so I guess I'm just continuing in the communication industry, just in a different form. I love talking Disney and I could talk about Disney all day. That's why I started blogging and created the Facebook group. The Disney community is full of friendly, helpful, and happy people...and I love being a part of it! If there is any Disney subject you would like to see covered just let me know! Need help planning your Disney vacation. Feel free to contact myself or Melissa at Never Stop Dreaming Travel Co. We love helping people plan their trips! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to check out our Countdown to Disney app! Feel free to email me with suggestions of things you would like to see in the app :-)
