Yes totally.
U dont have to tip 20% btw.
We had awful awful service in 1 place and i left a 1c tip (so she knew i had to tip but she was so crap i didnt and we left a 40% tip as staff were beyond amazing (fyi at 50sptc)

Tipping is subjective.

But normally 15 to 25 per cent x

I always stay onsite, just charge everything to magic band which charges to my credit card, trip I've just got back from I had less than $20 in cash and it's usually the same for every trip, even non WDW ones

I use the cc for as much as possible including tips so I only take around $500 in cash. You also get the benefit of the business rate of exchange and that tends to be a couple of cents more than the travel rate.

We use CC for everything. $100 cash does us three or more trips. We have done a trip without spending a single cent of cash.

I find it amazing that people don’t take a bit of cash even for tipping. I always carry some cash for small purchases and even for emergencies ie lost credit cards.

Do a search on the new room charge/cc policy before making a decision, as usual they have managed to mess up something that should be so simple!

We wouldn't need it for lost credit cards as we never keep the main and backup cards completely seperate . I know some people like to tip in cash so need more but our last trip I seriously didn't need to spend a penny in cash (two weeks Orlando, Tampa and Vero ) except for tipping the Little Toot captain.

You can tip with card. You can make small purchases with card. Have a couple of cards in case one gets lost etc. Easy. Not so amazing at all really.

I’m planning on taking $200 plus credit card on QSDP.
Can I ask at what point you have to pay off your magic bands? Is it a certain amount? And how much does everyone tip for their room cleaning? Staying at CBR if that makes any difference?

Thanks

Can I ask if you all have a cc such as Halifax clarity in these instances? Mine is a standard cc and so I don't charge anything to it due to transaction fees plus Visa does not have a good exchange rate only MasterCard -it's just with me for an emergency. Tend to take a revolut card which I then clear room charges every few days
