Tango Card achieves 100% SLA adherence and 6.7x ROI in year one with Ada's conversational AI platform

The problem

Tango Card faced a 54% spike in support ticket volume from reward recipients during the 2020 holiday season, threatening SLA adherence and their brand promise as demand scaled. Reps had to manually look up customer data across multiple disconnected systems for every interaction, slowing them down.
