Yes. We always buy Disney gift cards to pay for our TS meals at the parks and resorts. Some Disney Springs restaurants take it as well.
Have several Disney GC with various amounts - will WDW park restaurants accept them for payment of meals?
you can combine them on disneygiftcard if you want to do that. I even have mine on my Apple Watch so no need to carry them around.
Thanks - wasn't aware there was an option to combine all GC onto one - will do this later!
I had absolutely No Idea I could combine all cards onto one ( up to maximum of 1000), nor that there was a website to refer too.

I never charge to the room. That's the main reason we use gift cards (or cash). We've bought $1000 plus in gift cards to the parks and restaurants. I never have more than $100 on one card and I keep them separately. I can see if you have the Disney Visa that is the card on hold for your room and accumulating points as you go and paying off before you left. But point wise, it's probably not a significant amount (but everything helps).A related question - is there any benefit of charging to the room and paying it off with the gift cards, rather than carrying around the cards and using them to pay? Or vice versa?
I'm nervous to carry around a $1,000 gift card, but also worried about all of the credit card holds when charging to the room.

That's really helpful to know, thank you!In the past we always charged everything to the room and then paid with giftcards. During our trip in November, we found out that many of the restaurants don't have the little handheld Magic Band Scanners anymore, so they had to physically take your magic band to the computer to do do a room charge. After the first meal, I just started paying with the gift card at the restaurant to save a little hassle on the servers.
Wouldn't they just put the refund on a new gift card like any other business?One important thing to remember -if you use the card(s) to make a purchase, be sure to keep it ..otherwise there will be no way to refund something down the road.
All Disney owned restaurants will accept the GC. As far as Disney Springs restaurants (most of which are independently owned), that is up to each individual restaurant so hopefully someone can chime in here specifically for T Rex.Can you use a gc to pay for character meal at chef Mickey? How about T Rex in DisneySprings?
You can tip using the gift card - it processes like a credit card where you just fill in the tip and total.How do the gc work with tipping in a ts restaurant? Do you just leave cash?
