Can you pay for Disney Tickets with a disney gift card?
You can only buy Disney tickets, via Disney's website or through Mouse Unlimited, using a Credit/Debit Card or your Disney Rewards Points.
For some reason, you can't use Disney Gift Card to buy Disney Theme Park Tickets.
You MAY be able to at a Disney Store. That would be a good question for Tricia

We added ours to our room and then paid for them with the gift cards when we got there. Not sure about the Disney Store itself though.

Kevin said he went to the front desk and told him that he needed park tickets. They charged them to our room. Then Kevin applied the gift cards to the room. Maybe it's because we were DVC?? We booked the dining plan in advance and when we got there paid for it with the gift cards as well.

FWIW, on disneygiftcard.com at the WDW theme park section, it says "The Disney Gift Card can be used to purchase Theme Park admission tickets and annual passes."
So if nothing else, there's that.
It's so odd to me when DLR has features that WDW doesn't, because that's so rare...with DLR you can add them to a room-only, without turning it into a package (requires calling), so it's just wild to me that you can't do it at WDW.
When we order tickets for guests, we use the online system. It's identical to the Ticket Order system you see when you go to buy tickets from WDW's main site, except at the top it says 'Welcome Travel Agent' instead of 'Welcome Guest'.
On either version, the only options are the Rewards Card and Credit Card. I imagine that if we called into WDTC to order tickets for a client, we could use a Disney Gift Card then.

If the ONLY important part is using the GC to buy the tix, not *where* you buy the tix, as I mentioned, disneygiftcard.com says that you can use the GC to buy them when you're actually there at WDW.
But if it's the MU part you want, then yes, paypal makes more sense. (unless you want the GC to buy souvenirs, food, etc)
