Creator's Key Takeaways

the Ovation of the Seas, you can't do that. There is, I assume, RFID technology inside the cards, and so they don't want you to punch any holes in it whatsoever.

So always check with guest services before you start punching holes in your card because you don't want to make your card unusual.

These they just hold it against it. So it's just a proximity sensor inside that allows you to purchase things, get on and off the ship, verify your identity or whatever they're needing your card for.
