FAQs

Do I need to pay any fees to use the Tangem Wallet?

The Tangem Wallet itself does not have any recurring fees. You will, however, need to pay standard network transaction fees (gas fees) for any cryptocurrency transactions you make on the blockchain.

How secure is the Tangem Wallet against physical damage?

The cards are designed to be highly durable. They are IP69 waterproof, meaning they can withstand high-pressure water jets, and are tamper-resistant. They are built to last for over 25 years under normal conditions.

What happens if I lose one of my Tangem cards?

If you lose one card, your assets remain secure on the other card, provided you have set it up as a backup. You can use the remaining card to access and manage your funds. It is recommended to obtain a replacement card to maintain a secure backup system.

Can I use Tangem with a desktop computer?

The Tangem Wallet is primarily designed for use with iOS and Android mobile devices via NFC. Direct desktop computer compatibility may vary and is typically managed through smartphone integration rather than direct connection.

Is my personal information stored by Tangem?

No, Tangem does not require or store any personal data from users. The security of your assets relies on the cryptographic keys stored on the card itself, not on personal information held by the company.

How do I update the firmware on my Tangem cards?

Firmware updates are typically managed automatically through the Tangem app. When an update is available and your card is connected, the app will prompt you to perform the update.

Troubleshooting

Card not detected by the app

Ensure your phone's NFC is enabled. Try repositioning the card on the back of your phone. Clean the NFC area on your phone and the card's surface. Restart the Tangem app and your phone.

Transaction failed

Verify the recipient address and amount. Ensure you have sufficient funds in the wallet. Check your internet connection and ensure the card is properly tapped to the phone during confirmation.

App showing incorrect balance

Refresh the app by pulling down on the wallet screen. Ensure you are connected to the internet. Close and reopen the Tangem app.

Cannot initialize the second card

Ensure the first card is not connected to the phone. Follow the setup process precisely for the second card. If issues persist, contact Tangem support.
