Shipboard/Onboard credits usage?

[thecoop]

My wife and I both have a $100 shipboard credit on the Dawn for next may. What can the credits be used for? Onboard shops? Drinks? Excursions? Tips? Just curious.

 

Thanks in advance.

Everything you listed and anything else available on the ship. Enjoy your cruise.

shipboard credit can be used for shops, drinks, tips, excursions, etc..

We were given an OBC that specified not for tips. But the OBC goes against your total bill. Since all we had our our bill was tips, the OBC was applied against them.

I am not sure, but I think they can not be used for the casino. I may be wrong.

If you leave auto tipping in place, it usually uses up all the cabin credit, but they just keep subtracting from the amount no matter what the charge is for.
