Tangem Hardware Wallets: common questions
How does a Tangem card wallet work?
The private key is generated inside the card chip and never leaves it. You tap the card to your phone to confirm transactions in the Tangem app over NFC. There is no battery, cable or screen on the card.
What are the extra cards for?
A 2 or 3 card pack is one wallet with backup cards. Keep the spare cards in different places so you can still access the wallet if one card is lost.
Does Tangem have a seed phrase?
By default no seed phrase is created, which removes the risk of someone finding it. You can choose to generate a BIP39 seed phrase during setup if you prefer a standard backup.
Is Tangem secure?
The cards use an EAL6+ certified chip, and Tangem reports no hacked wallet since launch. Treat the cards and the access code like cash and keep the backups separate.
