The same three-month FSD trial as south of the border, but the money is in CAD and the stackable incentives — and one referrer caveat — are Canada-specific.
For a Canadian buyer, a Tesla referral code adds three months of Full Self-Driving (Supervised) to an eligible Model 3, Model Y or Cybertruck order, billed in Canadian dollars. As in the US, Model S and Model X carry no referral benefit after March 2026. The differences worth knowing are the currency, the shifting federal/provincial incentive picture, and a British Columbia caveat on the referrer reward.

Canadian figures checked on July 13, 2026. The benefit is three months of FSD (Supervised), billed in CAD; confirm the current monthly FSD price at tesla.com/en_ca before quoting a dollar figure.
Solar in Canada
Tesla's residential solar lineup is not broadly sold across Canada the way it is in the US, and energy-product offers vary by region. Rather than repeat a US solar figure that may not apply, confirm what Tesla currently offers in your province — and whether a referral benefit attaches — at tesla.com/en_ca.
Federal & provincial rebates you can stack (verify current)
The referral FSD trial is separate from any government rebate, so using a referral never costs you a rebate. The picture on the government side is in flux:
Federal — iZEV is closed; EVAP replaced it. The iZEV program most Canadian guides still name paused in January 2025 when its funding was exhausted and closed to new applications on 31 March 2025. The EV Affordability Program (EVAP) replaced it, opening 16 February 2026 with up to $5,000 on an eligible battery-electric vehicle. If a page still describes iZEV as merely "paused", it predates that replacement.
Quebec — Roulez vert: the main active provincial program; confirm the current rebate amount and eligibility.
British Columbia: provincial rules have restricted referral rewards, so the $250 referrer credit may not be available to referrers in BC even when the buyer's FSD benefit still applies. Verify before relying on it.
Why you should not convert the US dollar figure
US coverage of this benefit routinely prices it at "about $300", from three months of a
subscription listed around $99. It is tempting to convert that into Canadian dollars and call it done.
Don't — the conversion is wrong twice over.
The subscription is priced locally, not converted. Tesla sets the FSD
(Supervised) monthly price per market. A Canadian buyer's three free months are worth three
Canadian monthly payments, whatever those happen to be — a number that has no fixed
relationship to the US figure and no exchange rate in it.
The value is personal before it is national. Three months of a subscription is
worth its price only to someone who would otherwise have subscribed. To a buyer who wouldn't, it is
an interesting three months and a saving of nothing. That is true in both countries, and no currency
conversion changes it.
So the honest Canadian figure is: three times whatever tesla.com/en_ca shows as the monthly
FSD (Supervised) price today, and only if you would have paid it. We deliberately don't print
a CAD total on this page, because it would be a converted US number wearing a maple leaf.
The one thing that is genuinely Canada-specific
Strip out the currency and the incentive churn, and exactly one structural difference remains
between a Canadian and an American referral — and it sits on the referrer's side, not the
buyer's.
The buyer benefit is North-America-flat: the same three-month trial, on the same eligible models,
attached by the same link-first mechanic. What differs is that a referrer resident in British Columbia
may not receive the referrer credit at all, even on an order where the buyer's benefit applies
normally. That asymmetry has a practical consequence worth stating plainly:
If you are a BC owner sharing your code, share it because it helps the buyer —
not because it pays you. Anyone telling BC owners to share for the credit is describing a reward they
may not receive.
If you are a buyer using a BC owner's code, nothing changes for you. Your side
of the benefit is unaffected by where the code's owner lives.
It is also the single fact on this page least likely to appear on a competing Canadian referral
page, for the obvious reason that it discourages the sharing those pages depend on.
How to apply
1
Open the referral link first
Before you configure anything, open a valid referral link (a ts.la/… address wraps an owner's code). This tags your session so the benefit is recognised.
2
Configure and place your order
Build your Model 3, Model Y or eligible Cybertruck and go to the order screen. The 3-month FSD (Supervised) benefit shows in the order summary before payment — there is no coupon box to type into.
3
Confirm it applied, then pay
Check the order summary lists the referral benefit before you submit. Tesla does not add a referral after an order is placed, so verify it is there first.
Canada-specific questions
How much is the Canadian referral benefit worth?
The same three-month FSD (Supervised) trial as the US, billed in Canadian dollars. We do not print a precise CAD figure because Tesla's monthly FSD price in Canada changes — confirm it at tesla.com/en_ca before relying on a number.
Is FSD (Supervised) available to use in Canada?
FSD (Supervised) is offered as an option in Canada; road rules and regulatory approval for hands-off use differ from the US, so use it within the law where you drive. The referral simply gives you three months of the feature set Tesla makes available in Canada.
Do referrers in British Columbia earn the $250 credit?
Referrer rewards can be restricted by provincial rules. British Columbia's consumer-incentive regulations have limited referral rewards in the past, so a referrer in BC may not receive the $250 credit even when the buyer's benefit still applies. Verify the current status before relying on the referrer reward in BC.
Which federal or provincial rebates can I stack?
The referral FSD trial is separate from any government rebate. The federal iZEV program closed to new applications on 31 March 2025 and was replaced by the EV Affordability Program (EVAP) from 16 February 2026, worth up to $5,000 on an eligible battery-electric vehicle; Quebec's Roulez vert program is the main active provincial incentive. Check the current status of each before counting on it — these change often.
