Applying gift card to kids room card

[becker80]

My kids each received a NCL gift card for Christmas. Is there a way to apply the gift card to their room key or do I just apply it to our room account?

I can give you my experience in November. The kids room key was no different then ours (either turn on or off). Guest Service could not put a spend limit on hers, it was linked with our credit card because we did want her to be able make some small purchases on her own. I heard others were able to get the spend limit placed on their kids cards but they wouldn't do it for me.

The easiest thing will be to add it to your account. I can't comment on being able to put a spending cap on it, as I've never tried. I'd suggest just reviewing the account regularly to make sure they arent overspending. The arcade could potentially get though some money.

 

You could set up individual accounts (I assume you can do this for kids), but that would get complicated anyway as the DSC would also be charged to their account, meaning you would still have to have another source of money.

 

I'd just set up one account and keep an eye on it.
