What is the difference between blue and green ID at Disney?

You may see Green IDs on Cast Members at places like Gideon's Bakehouse in Disney Springs. All official Disney World Cast Members receive a Blue ID, though, and Disney has strict rules about when and where that Blue ID can be seen.



At Walt Disney World and Disneyland, the color of a staff ID (or name tag) signifies the employee's relationship with the company. A Blue ID is held by a standard "Cast Member" who is directly employed by the Walt Disney Company. These employees typically receive the full suite of Disney perks, including complimentary park admission, the "Main Entrance Pass" for guests, and standardized discounts at Disney-owned stores and resorts. A Green ID (often referred to as a "Contractor" or "Operating Participant" badge) is given to individuals who work on Disney property but are employed by a third-party company, such as those working at restaurants in Disney Springs or the shops in EPCOT’s World Showcase. While many Green ID holders receive basic perks like free parking and certain food discounts, their ability to get into the parks for free depends entirely on the specific contract between Disney and their employer; they often do not receive the same volume of "guest passes" as Blue ID holders.
