More Tesla referral questions
The questions the homepage doesn't cover, answered the same way: a short answer first, then the detail and the Tesla page behind it.
Does a Tesla referral code work on Cybertruck?
Short answer
In the US, yes for Premium AWD and Cyberbeast: Tesla's referral page showed 3 months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised) on Oct 3, 2026. Cybertruck Dual Motor AWD is excluded.
The US terms are explicit: “Cybertruck Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive is eligible for loyalty benefits only and cannot be purchased to earn buyer or referrer benefits.” The Canadian referral page also showed 3 months of FSD (Supervised) on Cybertruck (Sep 25, 2026) but didn't name trims. The UK, Irish and German referral pages we checked showed no Cybertruck card at all.
Cybertruck's referral benefit has changed more than any other model's — it was $1,000 off as recently as March 2026. See the changelog.

Is a Tesla referral code the same as a promo code?
Short answer
No. A referral code is an existing owner's personal link. The benefit is set by Tesla for your country, and you get it by ordering from that link — not by typing anything in.
Tesla's referral terms describe referral links only. They say nothing about promo codes for cars, and there's no field in the car order to enter one. A referral also isn't a price cut in every country: in the US it's currently a Full Self-Driving trial, in the UK free Supercharging miles, in Australia and Japan money off. Tesla's terms add that benefits are “non-transferable and not redeemable for cash”.

Does a referral code work on a business or fleet order?
Short answer
Tesla's referral terms don't say. They're written around individual customers, a Tesla Account, and your first qualifying product — ask Tesla before you order on a company's behalf.
Two clauses matter if you try: benefits go to the primary account holder only, and buyer benefits only apply to the first qualifying product on that account. Neither tells you how Tesla treats a company buyer, so we won't guess.

Does a referral code work on Tesla solar or Powerwall?
Short answer
In the US, Tesla's referral page showed $400 off “Solar Panels & Powerwall” on Oct 3, 2026. Solar panels only qualify if Tesla installs them.
One catch: Tesla's FAQ says that if you already own a qualifying Tesla energy product, “you cannot use a friend's referral link” — you get loyalty benefits instead. Note the terms list “solar panels” as the qualifying energy product, while the referral page card says “Solar Panels & Powerwall”; ask Tesla which applies before you rely on it for a Powerwall-only order.

Is it safe to use a referral code from a site like this?
Short answer
Yes, if the link opens tesla.com. Using a referral costs you nothing, and this site asks you for nothing — no sign-up, no payment, no personal details.
Check the address bar says tesla.com before you sign in or pay. Never enter Tesla account details on any other site. This site is run independently, isn't Tesla, and the code's owner may earn Tesla credits if you order — who runs this site and how the referral relationship works.
Tesla's terms also say it won't honor referral links tied to “paid advertising, selling or paying or offering incentives”. We offer nothing in exchange for using a code.

What changed in Tesla's referral program recently?
Short answer
Model S and Model X left the US referral page by Apr 1, 2026, and Cybertruck moved from $1,000 off to 3 months of FSD (Supervised). Model 3 and Model Y have shown the FSD trial since at least Sep 2025.
- — US page unchanged since April: Model 3, Model Y, Cybertruck 3 months FSD (Supervised); solar and Powerwall $400 off.
- — Model S and Model X gone from the US page; Cybertruck switches to 3 months FSD (Supervised).
- — Tesla updates its US terms; Model S and X no longer listed as qualifying.
Every dated change since late 2024, with its source, is in the program changelog.
