Question on paying for the social media plan

[mominwestlake]

My daughter is getting married on a Carnival ship and we have 14 cabins booked with those joining us. My daughter would like several people in the party to have the social media plan so they can post pictures on instagram.

She would like to pay the $25 charge for them as part of their favor for sailing with us. I was thinking we could just put a $25 Carnival gift card in with their other favors, but I can't find them anywhere in that denomination. My question is would a visa gift card work just as well? Does the charge go on your sign and sail account? If so, can you use a visa gift card to pay that? Or do you pay with a credit card when you sign up on your phone for the social media plan?

You can purchase "Carnival Cruise Cash" starting at $25. It will automatically be added to their onboard account.

I believe I saw $25 Carnival cards at Lowes...

I know I've seen them at Lowe's and Winn-Dixie...you can make them any denomination between 25 and 500$.

You can also buy them on Amazon in any amount

Do you have a link? I don't believe Amazon sells Carnival gift cards (or are you talking about visa gift cards)

[singbluesilver1]

Well I bought a ton before our pride cruise this past January but now I can't find them so I guess they stopped it

Not to go off on a tangent, but I was totally disappointed amazon stopped selling them. I was able to get them using some rewards points/credits I had from Amazon. I near about cried when I saw they stopped selling them. I saved over a hundred bucks on my last cruise using those reward points/credits!

Probably a good thing amazon stopped selling them. There was a very long thread of people discussing getting them and when they went to use them there was no money on them. They had somehow already been used.

I've bought several at Krogers. And if you have a PayPal account, you can go to PayPal Digital Gifts to buy them...
