Faster. Safer. A better experience for you!
Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari is going cashless in 2023 to provide faster service and increased security. All locations throughout the park will continue to accept most credit cards as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay. For Guests who normally bring cash, free cash-to-card kiosks will be available throughout both parks.
We’re sure you have some questions. And we’ll do our best to answer all of them below.

Where can I find kiosks to convert cash to a card?

You can load up to $500 per kiosk transaction. If you’d like to load more, you can simply repeat the process for a second card.
