The matchplay chips I've received in the past from Paris/Ballys simply required that I go to the cage after I checked in.
They then gave me the amount of chips that corresponded with the offer I received.
These chips were valid for 1 decision only - win or lose, I was not required to place any chips of my own on the table. If I won, they paid me a real money chip and took the NN chip. If I lost, the took the NN chip.
