Wait....what do you show for a fastpass now?

I just thought of a question..... what do you show to get onto rides with a FP+ reservation? It's obviously not a paper pass....do you scan your ticket? How does it work?

Resort guests and AP holders have Magic Bands. Offsite guests have a park ticket.

Both the Magic Band and the tickets have an RFID chip embedded in them. This chip has a serial number that connects to a database holding the FP+ information.

Each FP+ capable attraction has a scanner. You hold your ticket or magic band to the sensor, and it spins green to allow you on the ride.
