Sorry another Carnival Mastercard Question

[bjfitz0703]

I see I can use 20,000 FunPoints for a $200 onboard credit.  Can this be used for my sail and sign card?  I think so yet want to be sure.  thanks

Yes, the credit goes on your sail and sign card.

The FunPoints M/C OBC will not show on your cruise docs, so make sure you print out the redemption confirmation from Barclay's reward program. If the OBC is not added within 24 hours of boarding go to Guest Services with the printout.

Just as a side note most of the time the better points vs/ dollars conversion at Barclay's is billing credit , that can be redeemed against any Carnival purchase. This includes booking deposits and payments, preboarding online FunShop purchases such as beverage or internet packages, prepaid excursions offered in Manage My Booking, and against Carnival gift cards bought through Carnival's website. you may also want to check if Barclays is still offering a billing credit of 10% when you pre-purchase your excursions through Carnival online.

Statement credit is better but if you do use as obc note that the obc will not be refundable.

 

No idea why this should be but use it or lose it.

Another option is to purchase Carnival gift cards with the points. Can then be applied to your sign & sail once you're onboard.

Just FYI- if you have leftover OBC or cruise cash, you can still cash it in at the end of your cruise by going to the casino, applying your remaining funds to your casino account, take one spin on the slot machine then go cash out... just be careful if you're walking around til you get home with a significant amount of cash!

Just want to mention that if you have a charge from Carnival for $1500 or more you get 1.5% back when you apply the points to that charge.
