Useful, honest recommendations
Worth knowing about.
Every service listed here will be something we use ourselves or genuinely believe is useful. We’ll explain what it provides, why we recommend it, and any benefit available to you.
| Service | What it provides | Why we recommend it | Link and benefit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monzo Banking and travel money |
A current account with Pots that can keep your Disney trip savings separate, plus fee-free card payments abroad using Mastercard’s exchange rate. |
Pots make it easy to set money aside for flights, accommodation, park tickets, spending money, and the extras that are easy to forget. |
Referral benefit

| Surfshark VPN Online privacy while travelling |
A VPN that encrypts your internet traffic, helps protect your data on public Wi-Fi, masks your IP address, and supports unlimited compatible devices on one account. |
It’s useful when the family is using airport, hotel, café, and other public Wi-Fi. One account can cover compatible phones, tablets, laptops, TVs, and other devices. |
Referral benefit
Depending on the plan, a new customer can receive one or three free months. After the customer remains subscribed for 31 days, WhimsyTrip may receive free months or a referral commission, subject to Surfshark’s eligibility rules. See the Surfshark offer |
| Disney Vacation Club Disney holiday accommodation |
A long-term timeshare membership that uses Vacation Points for stays at Disney Vacation Club resorts, subject to the membership rules and booking availability. |
Before we joined, our family was spending around £8,000 on each Walt Disney World holiday. The way we use our membership now costs us much less, and we wish we’d spoken to Disney Vacation Club years earlier. It won’t suit every family, so we recommend arranging a discussion, hearing what they currently offer, and deciding whether the full cost is affordable for you. |
Member referral
Use our link to ask Disney Vacation Club for more information. If someone we refer becomes a Member, WhimsyTrip might receive a special Disney Gift Card as a thank you. Offers, eligibility, and rewards can change. Talk to Disney Vacation Club |
Provider eligibility rules, prices, fees, allowances, and referral terms apply and may change. The Monzo entry is a personal recommendation, not financial advice. Disney Vacation Club is a timeshare purchase with an upfront cost, annual dues, and a long-term commitment. Annual dues remain payable whether or not you travel. Our £8,000 comparison is our family’s experience, not a promise of future savings.
