Open your US referral link
LiveTesla sets and can change US referral benefits without notice. Always confirm the benefit on your order summary before paying the order fee.
What the US referral code is worth
| Model | Buyer benefit | How to order |
|---|---|---|
| Model Y | 3 months Full Self-Driving (Supervised) | Configurator or inventory |
| Model 3 | 3 months Full Self-Driving (Supervised) | Configurator or inventory |
| Cybertruck | 3 months Full Self-Driving (Supervised). Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive is not eligible | Configurator or inventory |
Tesla words it as “3 mo Full Self-Driving (Supervised) for new owners” on the configurator itself, in a banner that appears once a referral link is applied. FSD (Supervised) is a $99/month subscription in the US, so the trial is worth roughly $300 — and it lets you evaluate the feature properly before deciding whether to subscribe or buy it outright.
The new-owner condition matters
This is the part most referral pages omit. Tesla states plainly that the promotion is available to new owners only: existing or previous owners instead receive a $500 loyalty benefit off the vehicle price, and in that case the referrer receives nothing either. The promotion is tied to your Tesla Account and cannot be transferred to another vehicle, person or order.
So if you have owned a Tesla before, a referral link does not help you — the $500 loyalty benefit applies automatically without one.
How to use a Tesla referral code in the US
-
01
Open the link for your model
Start from the Model 3, Model Y or Cybertruck link above, not from tesla.com directly. The referral attaches to your session at that moment.
-
02
Check the referral banner
The configurator should show a “Referral Applied” banner reading “Order a new Model Y and receive: 3 mo Full Self-Driving (Supervised) for new owners”.
-
03
Order from that page
Use Order Now to configure a vehicle, or Explore Inventory to pick something already built.
-
04
Check the order summary
Before you pay the order fee, make sure the referral benefit is listed. It cannot be added afterwards.
Eligibility rules worth knowing
New owners only
Tesla’s US terms require that you have never owned a qualifying Tesla product. Existing or previous owners receive a $500 loyalty benefit off the vehicle price instead, and the referrer receives nothing on those orders. The promotion is tied to your Tesla Account and cannot be transferred to another vehicle, person or order.
Cybertruck Dual Motor is excluded
Tesla lists one model-level exclusion on the US configurator: Cybertruck Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive is not eligible for referral benefits. Other Cybertruck configurations are.
Incentives are unaffected
A referral benefit comes from Tesla and sits outside federal and state EV incentive programmes. Using one does not change your eligibility for a tax credit, a state rebate or a utility rebate.
Energy products vary
Powerwall and solar have moved in and out of the referral programme over the years. If you are ordering energy rather than a vehicle, check what the referral page actually lists before assuming it applies.
The referral must be applied before ordering
There is no code field at checkout and no way to add one later. If you already have a configuration open in another tab, close it and start again from the referral link.
What the referring owner receives
This site supplies a working referral code belonging to a Tesla owner. When an eligible order completes, Tesla pays that owner a referrer benefit — added as Supercharging credits or Tesla Credits depending on the vehicle bought, shown as “pending” in the Tesla app until the grant date, and expiring 12 months later. Tesla does not publish the value in advance, so neither can this site. It costs you nothing and does not change your price.
The definitive rules live in Tesla’s US Refer and Earn terms. If anything here disagrees with Tesla, Tesla wins.
Tesla referral code USA: questions
What does a Tesla referral code give US buyers?
Tesla US currently gives 3 months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised) to new owners ordering a Model 3, Model Y or Cybertruck through a referral link. Cybertruck Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive is excluded. Tesla can change this at any time, so this page is rechecked regularly.
What if I have owned a Tesla before?
Tesla states that the promotion is only available to new owners. Existing or previous owners instead receive a $500 loyalty benefit off the vehicle price, and in that case the referrer receives no benefit either.
Where do I enter the Tesla referral code?
You do not. Opening the referral link attaches the referral to your session. There is no code field at checkout, so start your order from the referral page.
Can a referral be added after the order is placed?
No. Tesla does not apply referrals retrospectively. If you have already ordered, the benefit is lost for that order.
Who is eligible for the buyer benefit?
Only new owners. Tesla’s terms require that you have never owned a qualifying Tesla product. The promotion is tied to your Tesla Account and cannot be transferred to another vehicle, person or order.
Does it work on inventory and demo vehicles?
Tesla provides an Explore Inventory path from the referral page, so many in-stock vehicles qualify. Eligibility varies by vehicle, so confirm the benefit on your order summary before paying.
Does a referral affect the federal EV tax credit or state rebates?
No. A referral benefit is awarded by Tesla and is independent of federal or state incentive programmes.
Does it work on Powerwall or solar?
Tesla has included energy products in the referral programme in some periods and excluded them in others. Check what the referral page lists before you place an energy order.
Does using the link cost me anything?
No. The price is identical. Tesla separately awards the referring owner a referrer benefit, added as Supercharging credits or Tesla Credits depending on the vehicle bought.
Is this an official Tesla website?
No. Tesla Treats is an independent site run by a Tesla owner. Every button sends you to tesla.com, where Tesla confirms the benefit.
