Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use any referral code?
Yes, you can use any valid referral code, even if you don't know the owner personally. The code owner will also receive benefits when you use their code.
When do the Supercharger miles expire?
Free Supercharger miles typically expire 6 months after they are awarded, so be sure to use them within that timeframe.
Can I use a referral code after I've already ordered?
Referral codes must be applied before finalizing your Tesla purchase. If you've already completed your order without a referral code, you generally cannot add one retroactively. Contact Tesla customer service for specific situations.
