Have not heard of them and never used them, we used other sources.

Thanks Doc

Lots of information on URCOMPED on Cruise critic website.

Do a search on that site . some interesting information available.

I saw this elsewhere, caught my eye because I’m getting on a ship they’re getting off of next month:

"Craig Shacklett, CEO of URComped, and UNLV’s Director of the Center for Gaming Research David Schwartz will be hosting this event. Over the course of the 4-night Bahamas cruise, you will hear the incredible stories of the entrepreneurs that built Las Vegas and those who are shaping the casino industry today. You’ll come away with timeless lessons that will help you grow your own business leadership skills; skills you can take home and put to work for you immediately.

David’s session will touch on:
The Real Legacy of Steve Wynn
Ahead of the Curve (Thomas Hull, Jay Sarno, Peter Morton)
How Bugsy Blew it – a leadership talk that draws on lessons from Bugsy Siegel’s mistakes at the Flamingo

Craig from URComped will share insider tips on how you can MAXIMIZE your comps and casino dollars while keeping the same gambling budget. Feel like the casino doesn’t appreciate you? He’ll go into the traps that some players fall into that causes the value of their offers to cut in HALF. Here’s an example. Let’s say you’re in a casino that rates you on your average bet instead of your total spread. You typically play $60 each on the six and eight. This casino rates you as a $60 player, even though you have $120 in action. Now let’s take that same $120 and pick one number to bet on. Let’s say the six is the point. Let’s place the eight for $120. You have the same amount of action at risk, but now the casino rates you as a $120 player. That’s playing the comp game to win!

Craig will also share the story of URComped and the marketing and technology strategies they’ve used to build theie business from 0 to 75,000 players. These are fundamental strategies that will help anyone that wants to grow revenue and customer engagement, whether for your own business or within a company.

Lastly, Craig and his team will facilitate a business roundtable session where entrepreneurs and business leaders can confidentially share challenges facing their businesses, swap ideas and build lasting relationships with fellow leaders from around the country."

It’s an odd combination as it’s presented like a business leader’s meeting, then turns to the casino side and goes way out to left field…. nothing to do with playing our game the right way but how you get comps.

If you find anything from the Cruse Critic site, let me know. At the moment, I’m staying away.

I was trying to find if this was a scam or for real. After looking at Cruise Critic (Thanks Colorup), it does not appear to be a scam.
I do take several cruises and this may be something I will look into. If I do, I will post results here. Thanks for everyone’s help.
