We spotted a change happening around Disney World, and we’re not sure how we feel about it.
Cashless snack cart
It looks like cashless snack carts are popping up in the Disney parks, giving folks the option of paying with credit or debit cards, Disney gift cards, or mobile payments. Here’s what you need to know.
Heads up, Disney World visitors! It looks like Disney is phasing out cash at select snack carts. We spotted this change in Magic Kingdom, at the Main Street, U.S.A. popcorn cart. There are signs posted near the registers of the snack cart advising folks that it’s a “cashless location,” and that credit cards, Disney gift cards, and mobile payments are the only options here.

We also noticed the same sign located at the Anandapur Ice Cream Truck in the Asia section of Animal Kingdom. Cash is no longer accepted at either location.

We expect to see this trend continue at other Disney World snack carts, so make sure you keep an eye out for these signs on your next trip. We’re not sure Disney would make ALL of the snack carts cashless, but it’s possible.
While making things cashless will likely speed up lines and service at some of these carts, sometimes you just want to pay with cash! This is especially true if it’s a small purchase that you don’t feel like putting on a card — like a popcorn refill or a soda, for example. Sometimes cash is just easier, but we’ll be interested to see how this changes things around Disney World, if it does at all.
Keep an eye out at snack carts!
We’ll be on the lookout for more cashless snack carts around Disney World. In the meantime, make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news and more.
