When is my Disney DVC banking deadline?
Expert Insight: When is my Disney DVC banking deadline?
Your banking deadline depends entirely on your Use Year — the month in which your DVC contract renews each year. Disney allows you to bank 100% of your points within the first 8 months of your Use Year. After that point, banking is no longer an option. If the points go unused by the end of the Use Year, they expire and are lost permanently.
Here is a quick-reference table to help determine your banking deadline based on your Use Year:
Why It Matters:Banking is a final and irreversible transaction. If you miss your banking deadline, there is no grace period or appeal. This is especially important if you're selling your contract — expired or unusable points can reduce its value and make it less appealing to buyers.
If your contract sells near the end of your banking window, there may not be enough time for the buyer to receive the points and bank them before the deadline. In this case, it’s often best for the seller to bank the points in advance, or agree to do so as part of the deal.
