DVC Members also get a number of “membership extras” including certain discounts and special events. But, the points needed to obtain these membership extras has now changed.

Previously, Disney Vacation Club members had to purchase 100 Vacation Points to take advantage of “Membership Extras.” According to the DVC Member Benefits website, Membership Extras include “vacation options in the Disney and Concierge Collections, certain discounts, offers, and special events are incidental benefits.” To receive any Membership Extras, a DVC member must present a valid Disney Vacation Club Membership Card along with a valid photo ID.

As of today, however, that number has changed. The DVC Benefits website now indicates that guests must now accumulate a total of at least 125 Vacation Points purchased directly from Disney Vacation Development, Inc. in order to get a Disney Vacation Club Membership Card and obtain those membership extras.

These membership extras are subject to change or termination, and the number of points needed to enjoy them could continue to change in the future. We’re always on the lookout for more news related to the Disney Vacation Club and Disney in general, so be sure to come back for more updates.
