. Comps are given to reward casino play. You do not 'deserve' comps just for walking into a casino. Management likes you to stay in their rooms, eat at their restaurants, buy in their shops, and watch their shows, but they won't give you a comp for doing so. Earning complimentary items and free services (comps) at the casino with your slot or table game play is a benefit offered by most casinos in the US. Not every casino offers comps. In fact, there aren't many foreign casinos that offer comps—but then again, in most foreign countries you don't have to tip the dealers.
As someone that used to work in database marketing for casinos, I get asked all the time about how casinos determine what specific offers and comps to give to different players. While there are some tier-based offers (Diamond Aspiration trips are a good example), most casino offers are based on a player's Average Daily Value (also referred to as Average Daily Theoretical or ADT). The majority of casinos aim to reinvest between 30-40% of a player's average daily value into offers and comps.
I created a comp calculator to help players estimate what their daily values are. Check it out here. Every casino uses slightly different math to calculate theoretical, but this should give you a solid ballpark estimate of what the casino thinks you're worth.
I'd love to hear honest feedback from my fellow Slot Fanatics. Does the calc make sense? Easy to use? Any questions?
Thank you!

December 2020 Cruises Canceled
Everybody that had something booked in December now has to rebook it. The options depend on the cruise line. So with Royal Caribbean, they came up with a new offer that you would have received in an email from URComped. If you don't see it, then check your spam folder. If you had free play on your December cruise, that will not roll over because it was directly affiliated with the previous offer you booked your December 2020 cruise on.
For Celebrity Cruise Line, you would have received an email with a list of sailings to choose from to rebook. Reply to the email and let your URComped host know which sailing you would like.
How Do Casino Comps Work
With MSC Cruises, If you want to rebook, you need to move fast while those reservations are still open. They could close at any time and your reservation will automatically be refunded. We can switch you to any comparable sailing in 2021. The only small caveat is if you want to book a holiday sailing in 2021 there is a surcharge that they didn't have in 2020.
Are simulated sailings going to happen?
With the new CDC order that came out, the cruise lines have to do a number of simulated sailings before normal passengers can start sailing. It is essentially a run-through or practice cruise. Several people are asking if they can volunteer to be on the simulated sailings. Planet of the apes symbol. And that's something that I'll definitely ask our contacts because I think it'd be fun. I'd love to see what they're planning on doing. It really hasn't been that long since the CDC released that document, so the cruise lines are still working through exactly how they're going to go live. So stay tuned..
