Pack a fully charged portable battery and the cable your phone uses. That gives you power in a queue, at a table or while moving between the parks. The resort kiosks are a useful backup when your own battery is empty, missing or back at the hotel.
How the portable charger kiosks work
The kiosks are operated by a third party. Buy a charged portable battery with a major credit card, connect it with one of the supplied cables, then keep it for later use.
When the battery runs down, recharge it with a USB charging source or return it to a participating kiosk for a charged replacement. A swap gives you another battery; it does not leave your phone attached to a wall or charging cabinet.

Purchase price and swap fees
There is no dependable resort-wide price to quote before you reach the machine. Purchase and swap charges can vary by kiosk and battery type. Read the amount on the screen before confirming the transaction, including any swap charge.
If you already own a compatible swappable battery, bring it. Check the screen before inserting it so you know whether that kiosk supports the battery and what the exchange will cost.
Check the cable before you pay
Kiosk batteries come with charging cables, but connector packages can change. Check the kit description on the screen and package before buying. Bringing your own short cable is still useful, especially if your phone, camera or other device has a less common port.
Test your cable at home. A charged battery cannot help if the connector is wrong or the cable is damaged.
Bring your own battery or use a kiosk?
Bring your own
Best when you already have a battery that can cover the day. You control the cable, capacity and cost, and you can start charging anywhere.
Use a kiosk
Useful when your battery is empty or missing. You can buy a ready-to-use unit and exchange it later, but the screen price and available connector set matter.
A practical park-day charging routine
- Leave the hotel at 100%. Charge the phone and battery overnight, then test the cable once.
- Start charging before the phone is desperate. A meal, show or long queue gives the battery time to work while the screen is mostly off.
- Reduce the easy drains. Lower brightness, use low-power mode and pause automatic photo uploads when the battery is slipping.
- Keep tickets and plans available. Save the next reservation, hotel details and meeting point where your group can reach them without repeated searching.
- Reset the kit at night. Recharge the phone and battery, inspect the cable and put everything back in the same bag pocket.
Frequently asked questions
Can I swap a portable charger at another kiosk?
Yes. A depleted kiosk battery can be exchanged for a charged replacement at a participating third-party kiosk. Check the screen for compatibility and the current swap charge.
Is there a fixed kiosk price across Disneyland Resort?
No. Purchase and swap charges can vary. Confirm the amount on the kiosk screen before paying.
Are kiosks available outside the parks?
Yes. The current list includes Downtown Disney, the Disneyland Hotel lobby, the Pixar Place Hotel lobby and Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
Should I rely on finding a wall outlet?
No. Bring a portable battery or plan to use a kiosk. An outlet may be unavailable, occupied or in a place that does not suit your plans.
