We have around 10 vendors maintaining for purchase of voucher codes, in those tango will be best one among all 

We are maintaining our relationship since 6+ years and we may have escalations of 1 or 2. Which has resolved in a quite speedy manner.

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

I just suggest you team that to include paypal for more markets, It would be great If they include paypal for more markets other than that we didn't have any dislikes with this vendor

With the help of this tango vendor, we are able to get most of the codes for all 40+ markets with this it's reduces the count of maintaining vendors list.

We are a new-age Fintech startup where we reward our users on purchases.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex J. | Digital Lab Product Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

The best part of Tango Cards is that you never have to guess what a person would want.

The flexibility to section gift cards by country also ensures your gift will be available to them no matter where they live.

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

Getting started can be a bit challenging. Had someone not helped me from the beginning, I would have struggled to make it happen. There's also a waiting period to get everything setup, so you can't jump right on your first time and send a gift card immediately.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It was hard to get everything set up. It took a long time to figure out how to integrate it with Qualtrics and the process was confusing. There's also no easy way to make sure it works.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They helped me through the integration and made survey incentives easy to give out.

  ### 42. Equitability and Ease All Rolled into 1!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jenna G. | Director, Educator Success, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

Our organization switched from sending participants in our events Amazon gift cards to using Tango Card / Reward Genius.  We realized one day when we overheard someone telling another participant that he wished it wasn't an Amazon gift card, because "What was he going to do with that?" and we had an AHA! moment that giving everyone Amazon gift cards, while easy, was not exactly equitable since not everyone shops there.  I had just recently used Tango Card from a study my son had done and LOVED how he was able to split his amount into 2 different stores to get the items he wanted with it.  We switched a few weeks later and have not looked back!  We love seeing what people spend their cards on and it makes our hearts happy to see that people redeem it from EVERYWHERE!!! We have some that get grocery cards, others redeem to the movie theather, and tons pick their favorite restaurant (or the one the frequent most nearby their place of work).  Our participants love how quick and easy it is for them!

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

We haven't really experienced anything we dislike using Tango Card / Rewards Genius.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As mentioned in the review, it's helping us reach our participants (both adults and kids) be able to more effectively spend the money we give them through our programs.

  ### 43. Flexible and Easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jennifer W. | Director of Marketing, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

Very easy to use, with many options for the recipient to choose from, and I really like how I can update the template and maintain a consistent branding for each of my campaigns...meetings, training, promotions, etc.

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

To use the platform, it just takes planning to request the invoice and have that paid so that the account is loaded. Unable to pay with a credit card if I needed an instant reward. I would also like to know if there is a way to ensure that recipients have received their reward and/or cashed it in. I know this can be done if you click on each transaction. Would like to know if there is a dashboard or report overview.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Affordable and convenient options. Rather than offering physical Visa or MC gift cards and having to pay for the fees, I can brand a message of "thanks" or appreciation and quickly send it off to our recipients. Generic, plain cards or gift cards would be awesome to give to recipients in public formats. I'm currently passing out paper certificates that read, "watch your emails for..." so that I can publicly reward our winners with something.

  ### 44. Tango gift cards make it so easy to...gift!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kim R. | Executive Assistant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

Tango is easy to send and receive gifts. As an administrator, I have watched Tango grow and take customer feedback to make the system better. As a user in my org, I have always loved the options given to me to redeem my gifts...and it's always a very simple process to get the funds!

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

Probably the only thing I 'dislike' is actually a safety feature that in all reality...I do kinda like. It will only send the gift card to the original email address the Tango email was sent to from the gifter! So you can't just randomly get use someone else's gift card unless you are in the actual account.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We no longer have to 'figure out' what to get everyone...because it fits EVERYONE! Even that one person who would rather just donate the funds to a good cause. I love how much time it saves our company.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Karli B. | Sr. Director of Talent Acquisition, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

No worrying about how long it will take or if someone will get a giftcard in the mail.... no worries about GC's getting lost in the mail. The best way to send Instant rewards for our employees or clients! They love that they can pick from a variety of stores and not just one specific retail location.

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

I do not have anything bad to say about Tango Card. It serves everything we need it to.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Instant rewards for our employees. No more waiting for gift cards to arrive in the mail or worrying about them getting lost. 

We can reward our employees instantly for a job well done and they can use the prize at many differnt places! It saves us money because they will actually use the gift card to somewhere they like instead of us making a guess of what they like.

What I like best about Tango is the reachability and friendliness of their customer service to make sure you understand all the in and outs of Tango's website and services.

I have some trouble accessing reports and finding out who has been paid gift cards could be more streamlined.

  ### 50. Excellent service for an excellent product!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lizzie P. | Program Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2022

**What do you like best about Tango?**

I had such a positive experience using Tango Cards for a recent tester rewards program. Our Tango Card account representatives were proactive and helpful, making the process of creating a campaign and sending cards very straightforward. We will certainly be using Tango Cards again!

**What do you dislike about Tango?**

My company already had an account with Tango Card when I started working with them. Before I knew about the existing account, I tried to get a new account set up on my own. This process was a bit confusing and I was grateful to get to leverage an existing relationship.

**What problems is Tango solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We did not have a good existing way to reward testers for their contributions. Since we are a large company, it's complicated to offer gift cards to other big companies, like Amazon. Tango Card takes the direct competitor edge off and lets us offer a "neutral" option.
