Tango supports QR code for instant, in-person reward distribution without requiring recipients' email addresses or phone numbers. When you select the QR code as the delivery method for an eligible reward order, Tango generates a unique QR code for that reward. To present the reward in person, simply display the QR code that the recipient can scan with their smartphone to redeem the reward.
Note:
-
The selected unique Tango reward ID (UTID) must support QR code delivery.
-
If QR code delivery is enabled for your platform, it is available to all accounts in your organization.
-
Recipient email addresses and phone numbers are not required.
-
QR code rewards cannot be scheduled for future delivery.
-
If an expiration date applies, the QR code redemption link expires on the date shown in the order confirmation.
-
Only Choice products, such as Reward Link®, are eligible for resend, cancellation, or reissue when delivered by QR code.

Select QR code as the delivery method.
This option appears only for rewards that support QR code delivery.

How recipients can redeem a QR code reward
After an order with a QR code is placed, Tango generates a unique QR code and a redemption URL for the reward line item.
To redeem the reward by recipients:
-
Display the QR code on your mobile device or provide a printed copy to the recipient.
-
The recipient scans the QR code using their smartphone camera.
-
The recipient taps the link that appears.
-
The redemption page opens in the recipient's mobile browser, where they can redeem the reward.
To view a reward’s redemption credentials and display its QR code, go to the Order history page in Tango. QR code appears only for successful orders that used QR-code delivery; failed orders have no QR code. To view reward credentials see Manage reward orders with Tango | View reward credentials.
