Casino Cash vs. Casino Chips

[HawkIVette]

So, I understand Carnival Casinos are changing the cash they give you as an incentive to book a Premier cruise. Now, you are to get "Special" Casino Chips.

 

So, my question is when you make a bet with special Casino Chips and you win, do they swap out the 'special" chips with real chips and pay you in real chips too? Or must you keep betting the Special chips until you eventually lose them?

We just got off Magic on Saturday, on a regular cruise not Premier. I was given $75 in special chips. I was playing craps. Each time I bet & won, for example on the passline with odds behind it using the special chips for both, they exchanged the special chips for real chips and also paid me the winnings in real chips. (when I didn't win, they were more than happy to take the special chips just like real chips, haha!)

 

Also, they were originally going to give me the $75 on slots play, but were happy to give it to me in chips when I told them I was a table player.
