How it works

From a plan to a customer at your table.

Tango Plans makes real plans for going out and sends Texas A&M students straight to local venues. Here is the whole journey, and why you never pay until someone walks in.

Three ways out, one door

It starts inside the app.

Tango runs on three audiences. They all end the same way: real Aggies on the way to your venue, whether it is two people meeting for the first time or a whole group of Friends on a night out.

Riding solo

Singles meeting someone new

  1. 1Aggies get matched with up to three people a week.
  2. 2On a mutual match, Tango plans the whole outing.
  3. 3The new pair arrives at a venue like yours as fresh customers.

Two in the saddle

Couples on a night out

  1. 1Partners link their accounts inside the app.
  2. 2Tango reads what they both love and picks the spot.
  3. 3They come back again and again as loyal regulars.

The whole posse

Friends on a group night out

  1. 1A group of Friends plans their night out together in the app.
  2. 2Tango picks one venue that fits everyone.
  3. 3Five to ten Aggies check in at once, your biggest night.
How it works

How the partnership works

1

Tango makes the plan

Singles meet someone new, Couples plan their next night out, and Friends get the group together. Either way, Tango builds the whole plan: who, when, and where.

2

Your venue gets picked

Your location lands directly inside the plan as the spot, matched to the group by vibe, budget, and proximity in College Station.

3

They check in, you pay

Only when guests physically arrive does a small per-visit fee come out of your balance. Nothing is charged before they walk in. That is the whole model.

The billing moment

You only pay when they walk in.

Plan made

Tango sets the venue, time, and details in-app.

Questions

Common questions

What counts as a check-in?

A verified arrival: a real Tango user, whether a single, a couple, or a whole friend group, physically showing up at your venue for their planned night.

When am I charged?

Only at a verified check-in. A small per-visit fee, about $1 to $2, comes out of your balance up to the max bid you set.

Do I have to make ads?

No. Tango writes the recommendation and builds the plan. You just keep your listing accurate and show up.

Can I control my spend?

Yes. Set a max per check-in plus daily and weekly caps, and pause anytime. You never spend more than you fund.
