Disney now testing My Disney Experience Shop in Store mobile checkout

Mobile checkout at retail stores is coming to Walt Disney World via My Disney Experience and is now in testing at two locations.

Currently limited to Mouse Gear at EPCOT and Everything POP at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, you can buy merchandise without having to visit a register. Here is how out works:

• You pickup a special mobile checkout bag when you enter the store.
• Use My Disney Experience to scan items and then place them in the bag.
• When finished, touch Check Out and pay on your phone.
• As you exit the store, a Cast Member scans an app generated QR code to verify the purchase.

The move to self service comes at a time of Disney saving labor costs and minimizing Cast Member interaction due to COVID-19.
