Guests at Ocean Casino Resort, a premier luxury casino destination known for state-of-the-art gaming, now have an easier and more convenient way to play. The resort launched Cardless Gaming, an all-new, fully integrated mobile experience, available via the Ocean Casino Resort Mobile App. Debuting as a first for New Jersey, this feature is designed to put the entire resort’s experience at guests’ fingertips as a one-stop-shop.
