Question- Are you able to charge what you spend in the casino to your on board account?

Yes.  They will charge a small fee to charge to room.

3% fee unless you gain high status or play enough to convince a host to waive them.  Max is $1000/day and the transaction is coded as travel (if you have credit card that rewards you extra for travel transactions, use that card).  Casino ATM fee was $5.99 on the Jade last month; that may vary by ship.  Slots payout is about 80% which is roughly 10% less than land casinos.  Table games also often have less favorable odds/rules than land based casinos.

The max is at least $2000 a day (maybe 3000?).    Perhaps it depends on your credit card on your account.

 

Anything you pull out in the casino is just lumped into your overall charges on that cruise so it does not show up as a cash advance, just a 'purchase'.  Nice if your credit card gives you a percent back for your charges.  

 

If you earn 2500 or more points during the cruise, talk with a host at the end of the cruise as they can comp items off your bill.

There is a 3% service charge. 
 

Consider if you charge $500 to your room, there will be a $15 service charge. The ATM will charge you $6 service charge.

Actually the max is $3000/day.  If you need more than that, you can ask for clearance from the finance manager for $2000 more for a total of $5000/day.

I was on the Epic this past May and the Jade last month, I asked what the maximum amount per day I could take out and both pit-bosses told me the max is $1000/day.  With the Epic I had zero play under my belt but with the Jade they could probably see my previous Epic play so its a head-scratcher why I was told $1000/day, twice.  Perhaps I simply look like a grand a day kind of guy (lol).  Don't ask how much the max is, simply tell them how much you want is the moral of the story.

I was on the Gem last week (Feb 2020) and the casino managers said I could withdraw up to $3k per day + 3%.

 

I used this option to calculate how much I need to get to 30k in points which I'll use for a meta upgrade on a future cruise on my NCL BOA card.
