Noah's Ark is Cashless

Transitioning to smoother, safer cashless operations this season. Offering free Cash to Card services.

The most important part of your experience with us at Noah's Ark is ensuring you have a great experience! That’s why we are transitioning to smoother, safer cashless operations this season. Noah's Ark now accepts only electronic payments such as debit cards, credit cards, and mobile payments like Apple Pay and Google Pay. All you have to do is swipe or tap to pay at any admissions office, food stand, gift shop, or park game—no digging for change to pay or waiting for cash back from our staff. Moving to a fully electronic payment system will streamline the payment process for both Guests and Team Members, making paying for everything from tickets to sweet treats safer, simpler, and more secure.

Only have cash? You’re still covered! Guests will have free access to multiple easy-to-use Cash to Card kiosks conveniently located throughout Noah's Ark. You can transfer your cash free of charge onto a card, use it throughout the park, and if you have money left over, use it anywhere else that cards are accepted.
