Ways to pay for your Tango orders

• Use an existing bank account to pre-fund your Tango account.

  Note:

  US customers can add bank accounts and deposit funds via the Tango portal. For questions, contact your Customer Success Manager (CSM) or success@tangocard.com.

   

• With the new bank account, you can transfer funds as soon as the bank account is successfully added. It may take 5–6 business days for the funds to finish processing and become available for orders. See Pre-fund with your bank account.

• To pre-fund your Tango account, initiate a transfer from your bank using ACH or Wire. Both ACH and Wire can be completed online or in person at your bank. The ACH and Wire details required by your bank are available in the Tango portal. See Pre-fund your account with ACH or Wire.

• ACH is for US customers only and takes 3-5 business days to process once the Tango Funding team receives the confirmation of ACH payment from your bank.

• Wire transfer is for US and international customers and takes about 1-2 business day to process once the Tango Funding team receives the confirmation of Wire payment from your bank. See Pre-fund your account with ACH or Wire.
