What do you do if you run out? No worries, there is an ATM (or four) in every casino for debit card withdrawals, or obtaining cash advances off credit cards. If you need to exchange foreign currency or cash a personal check, see the casino’s “Cashier.”

**Jen’s Vegas Travel Tip**
If you do not want to travel with large amounts of cash, you can apply for a line of credit with a casino. Just call them up and ask for the Casino Credit department to begin the application process. You’ll need to know your checking account number. How much credit you can establish will depend on your current bank balance or the six month’s average –usually the lesser of the two. This can all be done in advance via phone and fax, with final procedure at the Casino Cage. Once you’re all set up and ready to play, hand your players card and ID to a floor supervisor or pit boss and ask for a marker of the amount you’d like to borrow. He’ll come around with something for you to sign and then you can start betting. If you leave the table ahead, it’s best to pay back your marker right there. If you are behind, you can sort it out at the end of your trip.
