What this site is
freeteslacharging.com is an independent resource that explains the Tesla Refer and Earn program and helps prospective Tesla buyers understand the benefits available to them. We are not Tesla. We are not a Tesla dealer. We are not an authorized Tesla partner. We are an enthusiast-run site that publishes guides, calculators, and explainers about Tesla ownership, with a particular focus on the savings available through Tesla's referral program.
How we make money
This site supports itself in two ways:
- The Tesla referral program. When you click a referral link on this site and complete the purchase of a new Tesla vehicle, Tesla credits the referring account with rewards (such as Supercharging credits or other items Tesla chooses to offer at the time). Those rewards are paid by Tesla to the referrer — they are not a discount taken from you, and you do not pay any extra to use the referral link.
- Display advertising. We show ads on the site through Google AdSense. Advertisers pay Google, Google pays a share to publishers, and that revenue helps cover hosting, content production, and the time it takes to keep the guides up to date.
What you get when you use our referral link
The buyer side of the Tesla referral program changes from time to time. Tesla has, in the past, offered combinations of:
- Free months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised)
- Supercharging credits
- Discounts on the vehicle's purchase price
- Other promotional items (vehicle upgrades, accessories, etc.)
The exact benefit at the time of your purchase is set by Tesla and applied automatically when you order through any active referral link. The headline offer on this site reflects what Tesla is currently advertising publicly, but Tesla can change, suspend, or restart the program at any time. Always confirm the benefit on your order summary at tesla.com before completing a purchase.
Editorial policy
The fact that we earn a referral when you buy through our link does not change what we write. Our policy is simple:
- If a Tesla vehicle is the wrong fit for someone, we say so — including when a competitor (Rivian, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Ford Mach-E, etc.) is genuinely a better choice. See our comparison pages for honest tradeoffs.
- If Tesla makes a change that hurts owners (price increase, FSD price hike, removed feature, paused referral benefits), we report it on our news page.
- We don't manufacture urgency. The "limited time" banner on the site reflects a real fact about Tesla's program: benefits genuinely have changed, paused, and restarted multiple times. We don't push fake countdowns or false scarcity.
- We don't ghost-write praise. Every guide on this site is written based on first-hand Tesla ownership experience, public Tesla documentation, and verifiable third-party reporting that we link to.
FTC compliance
Under the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's endorsement guides, we are required to disclose any material connection between this site and the products we recommend. This page is that disclosure. The relationship is: we receive a Tesla referral credit when readers buy a Tesla through our link.
Advertising disclosure
Display ads on this site are served by Google AdSense. We do not select individual advertisers. The ads you see are chosen by Google based on the content of the page, your interests (if you allow personalized advertising), and Google's policies. The presence of an advertiser on the site is not an endorsement.
If you'd rather not use our link
You're not obligated to. If you'd prefer to use a different referrer's link — a friend, a family member, or another Tesla owner — that's a perfectly fine choice and the buyer-side benefit is the same. Tesla also occasionally lets buyers proceed without a referral, in which case the buyer-side benefit may not apply. The point of this site is to make sure you don't accidentally leave the referral benefit on the table.
