How to Connect to Tango Card
Step 1: In the GrowSurf Campaign Editor - Options step, click the Connect to Tango Card button.
You must first select a default currency for your GrowSurf account in order to use Tango Card. Please note that Tango Card is only available in USD, CAD, GBP, and EUR.
Your default currency determines which country your recipients can redeem their gift cards in. For example, if your default currency is USD then the gift card that you choose can only be redeemed in the United States.
Step 2: Connect a reward(s) to Tango Card.
First, click the Connect a Reward button.
Choose the gift cards, set the amount, then hit Save. Now, anytime this reward is unlocked by a winning participant, a Tango Card Reward Link will also be emailed to them.
With double-sided rewards, you have full flexibility in choosing who gets the gift card reward: (1) just the referrer, (2) just the referred person, (3) or both the referrer and referred person.
Step 4: Next, you will need to fund your Tango Card account balance upfront.
Click the Add Funds button, then choose your preferred funding method and follow the step-by-step instructions provided.
ACH/wire or check is 100% free. Credit card incurs a 3.5% processing fee.
Step 5: Verify your account balance by clicking the Back button, then clicking the Refresh Balance icon.
Once you see your account balance updated, your Tango Card integration is all set!
Important notes:
If you are adding funds via credit card for the first time, the initial deposit may take up until the end of the next business day to clear (subsequent deposits will process faster in the future).
If there are insufficient funds in your account balance when covering redemptions, your winners will not receive email links for redeeming gift cards, and you will need to retry failed redemptions at any later time.
(Optional) Step 6: To get notified when failed redemptions happen, you can enable Tango Card alert emails by updating your Notification Preferences on your account page.
Important Notes
Only companies based in the following countries can use Tango Card: USA, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain
If you are using a non-USD currency: Please note that Tango Card uses separate banks for currencies. When you add funds via ACH or wire, please make sure to view the specific instructions within GrowSurf to ensure funds are sent to the right bank. If a payment is sent to Tango Card's USD bank, it will be converted to USD prior to deposit. There may be fees or loss of funds due to this conversion.
Funding fees: Adding funds via ACH/wire or check is free. Funding via credit card incurs a 3.5% processing fee. (Note: transactions are limited to once a day and $5,000 per transaction.)
Funding via credit card:
The initial deposit made by credit card may take up until the end of the next business day for funds to clear.
If Tango Card's security team has to investigate a credit card due to red flags, processing may take an additional business day.
Once your initial deposit has cleared successfully, subsequent deposits will be processed faster in the future.
Insufficient funds: If there are insufficient funds in your account balance when covering redemptions, your winners will not receive email links for redeeming gift cards, and you will need to retry failed redemptions.
If you have manual reward approval enabled for your campaign: Tango Card Reward Link emails will only be issued to the winner(s) only after you approve the reward.
