Get exchange rates

We offer international rewards at Tango in over 80 different countries and their local currencies. The foreign exchange rate is calculated daily using multiple sources depending on the brand and location. Using the day’s currency exchange rate, we convert the reward's currency to your account’s default currency. We present the amount that will be charged to your account at the time of order.

At Tango we offer currency functionality in USD, CAD, EUR, and GBP. When you create an account, you are able to set the currency you would like to transact in.

📘
Note:

We only accept CAD, EUR, GBP, or USD.

Only one currency can be specified. The currency of a Tango account is set at the time the account is created, and can't be changed after any transactions have been made on the account. The currency defaults to USD if no currency is specified.

You can only change currency on an account that doesn’t have any transactions. If transactions have already occurred, a new account will have to be created reflecting the requested currency.

Completed transactions are final. Once a transaction is complete, its currency cannot be exchanged for another currency.

Exchange rates are updated once per day starting at 12:00 UTC and no later than +13:00 UTC.
