When you are trading Disney Pins at the Disneyland Resort, please follow our etiquette and location guidelines for trading.

Pin Trading Etiquette

• Official Disney Pins
  Only official Disney pins may be traded. The main criteria when judging whether a pin is tradable or not (although other factors may be considered) is that the metal pin needs to bear a “©Disney” mark on the back, representing an official Disney event, place, location, character or icon. A Disneyland Resort Cast Member has the sole discretion to determine whether or not a pin is tradable.

• Pin Condition
  Pins should be in good, undamaged and tradable condition, with the pin backing attached.

• Safety
  For a safe trading experience, please trade one pin at a time.

• Trading Maximum
  Trade a maximum of 2 pins per Cast Member or trading board, per day. Each trade is limited to one pin for one pin.

• Ask First
  Please refrain from touching the pin or lanyard of a Cast Member or Guest. If you need a closer look, kindly ask the Cast Member or Guest wearing the lanyard to give you a clearer view.

• Not Exchangeable for Trade
  The following may not be exchanged or in any way used when making a trade for a pin:
• Monies
• Gifts
• Vouchers
• Receipts
• Multiple pins for one pin

• Pins That Are Okay to Trade with a Cast Member
  • Any tradable pin that is not currently displayed on a Cast Member’s lanyard or trading board
  • Pins from other business units of The Walt Disney Company (e.g., ABC and ESPN), when a Cast Member determines them to be tradable
  • Operating participant pins that show a Disney, Disneyland Resort or Walt Disney World Resort affiliation, when a Cast Member determines them to be tradable

• Pins That Are Not Okay to Trade with a Cast Member
  • Unauthorized pins, plastic pins, rubber pins or other nonmetal pins
