Abstract

Systems and methods that, responsive to a receipt, from a component of a credit card issuer, of a request for payment of an amount of debt incurred in association with a credit card, utilize funds associated with a gaming establishment account to transact against an amount of funds owed in association with a financial account associated with the credit card. If a determination, based on the gaming establishment account, occurs to authorize the payment of the amount of debt incurred in association with the credit card, the systems and methods automatically initiate a transfer of an amount of funds associated with the amount of debt from the gaming establishment account to the account associated with the credit card.
