Onboard Expense Account
How do I setup a Royal Caribbean SeaPass or Onboard Expense Account?
If you haven’t already set up an account during Online Check -In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, you can do so in the Royal App or at the Guest Services Desk on Deck 4. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash.
Important Information:
When deciding which credit/debit card to associate with your SeaPass account, please note that a temporary authorization (hold) of $99.75 will be placed on your card to verify funds. Onboard purchases over $100 will generate additional holds. While not actual charges, these holds will reduce available funds. Most holds are released within 3 to 5 business days after your cruise ends but can take up to 30 days depending on your bank. Please contact your bank or financial institution as only they can remove holds. Royal Caribbean International doesn’t control how long holds re main.
How do I pay for things onboard?
Our ships utilize a cashless system. Once your Onboard Expense Account has been set up, simply present your SeaPass Card any time you’d like to make a purchase.
Can I change my form of payment after I’ve set up my account?
The form of payment on your onboard expense account can be updated in the Royal Caribbean App or at the Guest Services Desk on Deck 4 Please note, prior holds will remain on the original card until final charges are submitted at the end of the cruise
Can I add additional guests to my Onboard Expense Account?
Yes, additional guests from your stateroom or another stateroom may be added as authorized users on your account. Please visit our Guest Services Desk to do this.
How can I track my onboard spending?
All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a statement will be delivered the night prior to debark (the final morning of your cruise). A final statement will be e -mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise.
How do I settle my onboard charges?
If you set up your account with a credit or debit card, we’ll automatically post the final charge to your card on file. Guests on a cash acco unt will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
I have Onboard Credits (OBC). How can I use them?
Available onboard credit amounts can be viewed on your account beginning on Day 2 of your sailing via the Royal App. On the last day of your cruise, all onboard credits will be applied to your outstanding account balance before additional payment methods are charged. If your OBC is refundable (not a ssociated to a promotion), any remaining unused balance will be refunded to your card on file. If your OBC is promotional, the value is “use it or lose it” and any remaining amounts will be forfeited at the end of the cruise.
Can limits be placed by parents or guardians on arcade spending?
While our system automatically sets a $50 per person per day limit, this can be increased/decreased to any preferred amount. Just ask your friendly Arcade Attendant to adjust it. Please note, this is a daily limit. A cruise limit cannot be set.
