Let’s walk through everything step-by-step so you can confidently use or share a Tesla referral code in 2025.

How Tesla Referral Codes Work

A Tesla referral code is a unique link tied to a Tesla owner’s account.
When someone uses your referral link to buy a Tesla, you both receive rewards — typically:

  • $325 in Tesla Credits for the referrer
  • 3 months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised) or $400 off Solar for the buyer (depending on region)

Benefits vary by region and by year, but the process remains simple:
use the link → place the order → get the rewards.

Can You Use a Tesla Referral Code on Inventory?

Yes. Tesla referral codes work on:

  • Custom orders
  • Inventory / in-stock vehicles

When viewing inventory, if your browser URL contains &referral=... or shows a referral banner, the benefit is applied. If you started with the referral link, you’re good to go.

How to Get a Tesla Referral Code

If you’re a Tesla owner:

  • Open the Tesla app
  • Go to Referral Program
  • Copy your unique referral link

If you’re not a Tesla owner:

  • Ask a friend or family member
  • Use a trusted referral source like ReferATesla.ca
  • Find owners sharing valid links in Tesla communities

How to Use a Tesla Referral Code

Before you place your order:

  1. Click a valid referral link (ts.la/…, tesla.com/referral…, or tesla.com/en_ca/referral/…)
  2. Configure your vehicle or select an inventory unit
  3. Look for a referral confirmation message or referral parameter in the URL
  4. Complete your order — the rewards apply automatically

Important: You cannot add a referral code retroactively.
Make sure it’s applied before you finish your order.

How to Share & Send a Tesla Referral Code

You can share your link through:

  • Email, text, WhatsApp, Messenger
  • Instagram, Facebook Groups, Twitter/X, Reddit
  • EV forums like r/TeslaMotors
  • YouTube descriptions, blog posts, newsletters
  • Your Tesla community profile

Make your link visible and easy to click — that’s the key to earning referrals.

Where to Enter a Tesla Referral Code

There is no manual field.

Tesla applies referral benefits automatically when a buyer starts the order from the referral link.

If it doesn’t appear:

  • Refresh the page
  • Try an incognito/private window
  • Restart the order flow from the referral link

What Does a Tesla Referral Code Do?

For the referrer:

  • Earn $325 in Tesla Credits after the buyer takes delivery
  • Credits can be used for Supercharging, upgrades, accessories, or toward a new vehicle

For the buyer:

  • Receive 3 months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised)
  • Or $400 off Solar, depending on region and program timing

Bonus (USA only):

  • Eligible buyers (military, first responders, teachers, students) may also get a stackable $1,000 “American Heroes” discount

When Should You Use a Tesla Referral Code?

Always use a referral code before ordering:

  • For custom orders
  • For inventory units
  • For both cars and solar (when applicable)

As long as the referral link is recognized at checkout, the rewards will apply.

Is Tesla Referral Only for New Vehicles?

Yes.

Referral codes apply to:

  • New vehicles
  • New inventory units
  • Solar products (in regions where Tesla offers Solar referral benefits)

They do not apply to used or resale vehicles.

How to Get Free Supercharging via Referral

Tesla no longer widely offers free Supercharging miles, but older programs occasionally did.

If Supercharging miles are awarded:

  • They appear in your Tesla account after delivery
  • They expire after a set period (varies by promotion)

As of 2025, Supercharging rewards are rare, but always check current terms.

Final Thoughts

Tesla referral codes remain one of the easiest ways to unlock guaranteed perks on a new Tesla purchase in 2025. Whether you’re buying from inventory or custom-ordering, a valid referral link ensures both you and the referrer earn rewards — Tesla Credits, FSD trials, and occasionally Solar discounts.
