MSC Casino - cash charged to on board account?

[MrMike45]

On NCL, we are able to get cash in the casino that gets charged to our on board account, for the 3% fee of course.  

 

First MSC cruise in October.  Can you do the same thing with them?  Don't like carrying around that much cash, so usually do this on the first night (and if a really bad run in the casino additional times lol).

good question, waiting with baited breath for an answer.

I posted on the MSC boards since lack of response here, and got an answer.

 

They don't have casino cards like NCL.  Your ship card is used in the casino and inserted into slot machines.  And you can charge your room (without any fee) when the card is in the machine.  As for tables, he believes it works the same, with the card being given to the pit boss to take money out, but he is not a table player so couldn't say 100% sure.  

 

Do like the no fees.  Don't like that I have to type in my number over and over every machine I go to.  Would rather just take a sum of cash in 1 transaction, but I guess that's not doable.
