If you're ordering a Tesla in Europe, using a referral code is one of the easiest ways to get extra value on your purchase. Whether it's free Supercharging credits, software upgrades, or ordering discounts — the Tesla referral program rewards both new buyers and existing owners. This guide covers what you get and which countries are eligible. If you want a step-by-step walkthrough of exactly how to apply the code and verify it worked, see the Tesla referral code how-to guide.
What Is the Tesla Referral Program?
Tesla's referral program lets existing owners share a unique referral link with people about to order a new Tesla. When someone uses that link to complete a purchase, both the referrer and the new buyer receive rewards. The program has evolved many times but remains one of the most generous in the automotive industry.
What Do You Get With a Tesla Referral Code in Europe?
For New Buyers (You)
- Free Supercharging credits — added to your account after delivery
- Potential order discount — varies by market and campaign period
- Bonus software features — occasionally offered (e.g. FSD trial, Premium Connectivity extension)
What is the Tesla Loot Box?
Tesla renamed its referral rewards interface to the Loot Box in a 2023 app update. It's simply where your referral credits live after delivery. In the Tesla app, go to your account → Loot Box to see your current Supercharging credit balance, expiry dates, and any Tesla account credits you've received. The credits apply automatically when you charge at a Supercharger — no action required on your part. Free km is deducted before your paid balance.
