Tokyo Disney app: share park tickets with your group (up to 20)

To share park tickets, the person who bought them taps Create Group → Invite Members in the app and sends the URL to everyone, who then tap it. A group holds up to 20 people and is made for one day at a time.

What works without logging in, and what needs an account

The map, wait times and operating hours work without logging in. Showing tickets, groups, Premier Access, Mobile Order and anything else you buy or book needs a free MyDisney account.

Only people aged 13 and over can create a MyDisney account. Children under 13 go on an accompanying adult's app.
The official site says the app doesn't support tablets, iPads and similar devices. Use a smartphone.
Some features use your location. Turn on location access for the app in your phone settings.

Before you go: create an account and add your tickets

Tickets bought on the official site or app appear automatically when you log in with the account you bought them on. If you bought for several people, all of them show in the buyer's app.

Sources:[1]Official info[3]Official info[4]Official info

  1. STEP 1
    Install the app

    From the App Store or Google Play, on a smartphone

  2. STEP 2
    Create a MyDisney account

    A 6-digit code arrives by email from DisneyAccount.com. No email? Check your spam folder

  3. STEP 3
    Official tickets appear automatically

    The QR code shows from midnight on the day of your visit

  4. STEP 4
    Scan paper and other tickets

    Home screen → Park Tickets → Scan Ticket, then scan the code. Works for direct-entry tickets from Japanese travel agents and convenience stores too

Worth noting:Screen names here follow the Japanese app. In the English app some names may differ slightly.

How to make a group and share tickets with family and friends

In a group, everyone's tickets and "plans" (restaurant bookings, Standby Passes and so on) show in every member's app. You can create one when the app is showing a ticket or you have a plan. Both the creator and the people joining need the app and a MyDisney login.

Sources:[5]Official info[8]Official info

  1. STEP 1
    Tap Create Group

    Easiest if the ticket buyer does it. You can make groups for today or later dates

  2. STEP 2
    Invite Members and send the URL

    By email or a messaging app like WhatsApp or LINE

  3. STEP 3
    Invitees tap the URL

    That adds them to the group. Everyone's app then shows the same tickets and plans

  4. STEP 4
    Didn't work? Enter the ID

    Copy the ID from the page that opens, then enter it in the app under User Settings > Enter Group ID and confirm

Group rules, and the most common mistake

The official FAQ warns that if you scan everyone's tickets without a group, the park tickets and plans (such as Premier Access you've bought) show only on the app that scanned last, and disappear from everyone else's. Share your party's tickets through a group instead of scanning them.

Plans
A group holds up to 20 people, including the person inviting. With 21 or more, split into two groups.
One account can be in only one group at a time. If you see "already in another group", leave the old group, then join again.
Groups are per day. Visiting two days running? Make one for each day.
Don't scan the QR code from the purchase email into your own app before entering (the official site asks you not to). Join the group to see it.
Under-13s and people without the app have their ticket shown on a companion's app, and that person gets Premier Access and so on for them.

On the day: Premier Access and Mobile Order

With a group set up, one person can buy Premier Access for everyone at once.

Notes for visitors from overseas

The app displays in Japanese or English. Which one depends on your phone's language setting, and you can't change it inside the app. Any language other than Japanese gives you English.

Sources:[16]Official info[12]Official info[13]Official info[20]Official info[17]Official info[18]Official info[5]Official info[3]Official info

Cards issued outside Japan work if they're JCB, VISA, MasterCard or AMEX. PayPay and Alipay work for Mobile Order only, not Premier Access. You add your card when you first use a service after entering the park.
For Mobile Order, debit cards, prepaid cards and Alipay are charged when you send the order. Refunds for cancelled orders can take two to three months.
The Shopping feature for buying and shipping merchandise is only for "people aged 13 and over who live in Japan", and ships within Japan only. Buy souvenirs in the shops and carry them home.
Online check-in and room key sharing for Disney hotels are also for Japan residents only.
Whether tickets bought from overseas travel agencies can be added with Scan Ticket isn't stated officially. Check the seller's instructions.

What to do next

Getting the app ready? Just do this

  1. Before the day
    • Everyone aged 13+ installs the app and logs in with MyDisney
    • Check that the ticket buyer's app shows everyone's tickets
    • The buyer taps Create Group → Invite Members, sends the URL, and everyone taps it (if not, use Enter Group ID)
    • Going more than one day? Make a group for the next day too
  2. On the morning
    • After midnight, check the ticket QR codes appear
    • Turn on location. Don't scan other people's tickets without a group
  3. In the park
    • Once inside, one person buys Premier Access for the whole group
    • The next Premier Access opens after 60 minutes or at your return time, whichever is sooner
    • For Mobile Order, tap "I have arrived at the restaurant" only when you get there

Decide which Premier Access to buy and where to eat in advance, so you're not rushing after you enter. A route shows the order to go in and rough wait times.
