I remember that there is a limit of 800 disney dollars per year. Is there a limit or cap on how many reward dollars you can put on your card in a given year?

Good question, I looked for an answer and couldn't find one.
I'll give them an email and post the response. We will have like 4 years built up by the time we go again and well you just never know how many dollars will be built up by then.
I know the points start to expire at some point, I'm thinking two maybe three years at the most....I just put all my points onto the rewards card and some of my points where expiring in the year 2013 and 2014, I cash out every year when we purchase our AP so I don't pay too much attention. I can't go back and look because they are gone from my account now but I do remember seeing that. I do know that the rewards card itself expires in one year and you do have to use them or lose them.
Thanks for the reminder. 2013 is when they start to expire and Sept 2012 is when we are looking to go again.
Alrighty. Just read all of the fine print. There is no limit on how many dollars you can earn in a year and there is nothing about a cap on how many you can put on your card.
You have 1 calendar year after the year you cash out to use your dollars before they expire.
So we should be good!
Another expiration date to keep an eye out for is the rewards card itself. I transferred rewards points last September to my card. The points didn't expire until 2012 but the card expires 12-2011. Once you transfer to a card, you have to use it all before the card expiration date.
That's what I tried to say in my last sentence above, maybe it wasn't clear :D ...this is why I make sure to redeem right before I want to use them...you can even redeem the points onto a rewards card right at Disney's customer service either downtown or at any of the parks. I had a card already that I picked up while at Disney last time, all I had to do is activate it and add the rewards on to it...it expires 12/11.
What I've done in the past, to avoid the expiration problem, is cash out my rewards, then as soon as I get them, turn around and use them to buy a disney gift card for the same amount, then that one never expires! :sunshine: Hopefully that's still possible, haven't done it in a while!
