Our self-service Chatbot—located in our recipient Help Center—makes it easy for your recipients to quickly receive the support they need while redeeming and spending rewards. For issues that can’t quickly be resolved via the bot, recipients will be put in touch with one of our support team members via email or phone, whichever is the recipient’s preferred communication method.

When you work with us, there’s no need to maintain spreadsheets or tracking documents. We offer simplified, easy reporting in one simple web portal.

Our web portal was built with you and your workflow in mind to ensure any reports and tracking stay organized with minimal effort.
Keep in mind, you don’t have to use our web portal for tracking and reporting. You’re welcome to build your own reporting system via the Tango Card API.
