## What is Tango Card?
[Tango Card](https://tangocard.com) is a service that lets you reward winners of your referral program with their choice of e-gift cards or non-profit donations.
Tango Card is 100% free to use. You only pay for the value of the e-gift cards that you issue to your winners.
**Here are some additional things to note:**
* GrowSurf automatically creates a new Tango Card account for you. You do not need to create a separate Tango Card account yourself.
* Your GrowSurf Tango Card account is separate from any external Tango Card accounts you already own. You may request to transfer funds from your external accounts to your GrowSurf Tango Card account by [contacting Tango Card support](#contact-tango-card-support).
* GrowSurf's Tango Card integration supports currencies for the following countries: *USA, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, India, Singapore, United Arab Emirates*. For other currencies, use [Zapier](https://docs.growsurf.com/automate-rewards/zapier) or [Webhooks](https://docs.growsurf.com/developer-tools/webhooks) with your external Tango Card account instead.[

## How to Connect to Tango Card
**Step 1:** In the GrowSurf Program Editor - Options step, click the *Connect to Tango Card* button.
{% hint style="info" %}
You must first select a default currency for your GrowSurf account in order to use Tango Card. Tango Card is only available in the following currencies: USD, CAD, GBP, EUR, INR, SGD, ARS, AUD, AED, BRL.
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.
{% endhint %}
**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.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Advanced feature tip: Issue different gift card amounts by using dynamic rewards**
Dynamic rewards let you offer different reward values based on specific attributes of the referred friend (such as the pricing plan they signed up for) or referrer (such as their partner status).
For example, you can award $50 gift cards to winners when their referral signs up for your base plan or $100 gift cards when they sign up for a higher-costing plan.

{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
With double-sided rewards, you choose who gets the gift card: the referrer, the referred friend, or both.
{% endhint %}
**Step 3:** 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.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: If your program currency is not CAD, GBP, or EUR, Tango Card requires that you add funds to your account using USD.
{% endhint %}
**Step 4:** 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!
{% hint style="danger" %}
**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](#retrying-failed-redemptions) at any later time.
{% endhint %}
**(Optional) Step 5:** To get notified when failed redemptions happen, you can enable Tango Card alert emails by updating your Notification Preferences on your [account page](https://growsurf.com/account).
## Important Notes
* Only companies based in the countries listed at the top of this page can use Tango Card.
* **If you are using a non-USD currency:** 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 non-USD 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.
* If your program currency is not CAD, GBP, or EUR, Tango Card requires that you add funds to your account using USD. You will also see your primary account balance within GrowSurf as USD, but your participants will still receive gift cards in your program's primary currency.
* **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](#retrying-failed-redemptions).
* **If you have manual reward approval enabled for your program**: Tango Card Reward Link emails are issued only after you approve the reward.
* **Cancellation policy:** Please make sure you understand [Tango Card's cancellation policy here](https://help.rewardsgenius.com/s/article/TangoCardCancellationPolicy). Tango Card can NOT cancel direct merchant brands, only unredeemed Reward Links and Prepaid Visas.
## Troubleshooting Tips
If there is an issue with sending out redemption links, GrowSurf will send out a notification email to the program owner. The issue will also be stated in the participant's detail page when you view their reward or when you view the participant's activity logs.
Here are some reason why there may be failures when trying to send out redemption links:
* There is a lack of funds in your Tango Card account.
* If dynamic reward rules are enabled for the Tango Card reward, there may have been no matching rule found.
### Retrying Failed Redemptions
Once you resolve the issue (such as adding sufficient funds or updating your dynamic rewards configuration), click the 'Retry Redemptions' button (see image below).
## Contact Tango Card Support
GrowSurf automatically creates a Tango Card account on your behalf using your GrowSurf email. In the event that you need to contact Tango Card, please reference your Tango Card account details, including your *Account Identifier* (found in the popover window when you click the *Contact Tango Card Support* link in the Tango Card integration card).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.growsurf.com/integrations/tango-card.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
