Can I use my onboard credit on the casino?

If so how?

 

Thanks!

Using your sea pass card ask for any amount of money, there will be a 5% charge. The amount you requested plus the 5% will be deducted from your onboard credit. If the total is greater than the credit than you will be charged the difference in your account.

Yes. Just go to a casino cashier and request table chips or a slot voucher to be billed to your onboard account.

There will be a 5% service fee added unless you set up your onboard account as a cash one. If the latter is done make sure you advise the cashier of that.

Both the table chips and slot voucher received are likely to be non-cashable. If so the slot voucher can be used in any machine and becomes a cashable one when you cash out.

The non-cashable table chips must be played but the winnings are paid in cashable chips. If any non-cashable chips remain after your playing is done convert these to a slot voucher at the cashier and do the above at any machine without actually playing.

On Oasis, the slot vouchers we're still printing as non cashable except for winnings. No way to convert to cash unless you won more than the value.

Wait a minute. Are you saying that if you put a $20 bill in the slot machine, use $2 in play, you cannot cash out and get $18 cash back from the casino cashier?

Is that something new? In the past they were cashable once inserted into the machine

 

To answer the OP question answer in post 2 is correct. There is a 5% fee to get money out unless you have a cash account

For onboard credit it was requiring that value be played and not cashed out. If you cashed out a promo value or onboard credit you got to slip that said onboard credit not redeemable for cash.If you put a $20 bill and you can cash out twenty bucks all the way down to a penny.

I would not tell them that you are cashing out OBC, just that you want to take money out to gamble with. I would think that there must be lots of people who don't want to carry around a lot of cash and do it that way.

Sorry, I'm still missing something. Is the cashout ticket somehow different when you insert a $20 bill than when you insert whatever it is they give you when you get a cash advance against your onboard account?

All the times I received a slot voucher for the money that was deducted from my sea pass account and I inserted into a slot machine and either won or lost I received the full value amount that was listed on the slot voucher I turned in to receive the cash. My onboard credits that were deducted from my see pass account consisted of both refundable and nonrefundable with 75% of the account being nonrefundable, never had anyone comment that you couldn't receive the full amount.

I've taken money off of my Seapass card at the tables many times and have watched many others do the same. I have NEVER seen "non cashable" chips.
