Casino, Cash and Credit

My husband plans on visiting the casino a couple of times during our trip, will he need cash? Or can he do some sort of credit with our account where it's just grouped with our charges and it's paid with our cc at the end of the trip?

Speedy answers appreciated, we leave tomorrow!

From what I remember, you use cash in the casino. The days of grouping casino cash on your CC as regular charges are no more. You will incur a fee. It's probably too late to purchase casino credits for your cruise. Sorry.

You can charge cash at the casino's cashier against your shipboard account, with a 3% fee charged. The charge will show up on your account just like any other expense (i.e., not as a credit card cash advance). There is a daily limit - I believe it's $2,000 but I'm not 100% certain of that.

This is exactly right, including the $2000 daily limit. The 3% fee applies to all sailings except those in Europe or charged to a Casinos At Sea Gold account member (40,000 points/"Seabucks" in a rolling year).

What happens on the Europe cruises? Thanks.

Thanks all, we'll be sure to stop at the ATM before we get there :)

There is no fee to draw against your onboard account on European cruises at the moment. Of course, that can change at any time.

On our Jade cruise there was no charge for paying for casino chips on your on-board card. There was a fixed charge of $5.50 to draw cash from the ATM

Thanks all, we'll be sure to stop at the ATM before we get there :)

There is also an ATM conveniently located in the casino:D.

Check it out....

Charge to your shipboard account. $2000 daily allowance.

This is also a way round getting money off of your credit card without any charges. As you can change the chips back to cash.

NCL now charges a 3% fee to charge funds to your shipboard account. Only European sailings and Gold or higher CAS members have the fees waived.
