on-board credit

I know this has been addressed before but just to get it straight in my mind. I have a voucher with my tickets that is itemized and at the bottom it says $50.00 on-board credit. My daughter also has the same on hers. Does that mean we will each get an on-board credit that will be taken off of our final bill on board. Thank you

I have a question about on board credits. Can you purchase them in advance like you can on Celebrity? I've been doing that for my next Century cruise (and also asked for them for birthday presents) so I won't have to charge so much on my cruise. I would love it if Princess does the same thing. We're doing the Panama Canal on Coral Princess next year and I would like to prepay as much as possible

This is a previos post by Princess Di: Dear Clandt,
Prepaying is an excellent way to budget and have that money in place. You need not bother your T.A. Call 1-800-Princes, give your Booking Number and name. The res agent will repeat the Product Line (Ship, cruise date, ports). This is to make sure they have the correct booking to put the credit card on. Whenever you want a certain amount (and you can do this weekly or monthly, in increments), just call up, give your cc number, expiry date, address, and phone number. Voila, it will be a credit on your on-board folio before you even board. You also can dictate a little message to yourself and a card for each transaction will be in your cabin with the message to yourself. You could also drop that Booking Number to your friends and relatives if they want to give you a Bon Voyage gift. I give all my friends on-board credit long before their sailing and they are always pleasantly surprised. I may even give myself one.
