See our step-by-step guide for detailed instructions with screenshots.

🏠 Loyalty Discount

  1. Log in to your Tesla account that has an existing Tesla vehicle
  2. Start a new vehicle order — Tesla may automatically detect your ownership
  3. Look for a “Loyalty Discount” or “Existing Owner Offer” banner
  4. The $1,000–$5,000 discount is applied automatically to the order total

Discount amount varies by model and current promotions. Not always available — Tesla runs these periodically.

🎓 Teacher/Educator Discount

  1. Visit tesla.com/education
  2. Verify your educator status through Tesla’s verification partner
  3. Receive a unique educator discount code or link
  4. Apply it to your order — stacks with your referral code at checkout

Available to teachers, professors, school administrators, and education staff. $500 off any new Tesla.

🎖️ Military/First Responder Discount

  1. Check Tesla’s current offers page for military/first responder promotions
  2. Verify your status through Tesla’s verification partner (ID.me or similar)
  3. Receive a $500 discount applied to your vehicle order
  4. Combine with your referral code at checkout

Available to active military, veterans, and first responders. May not stack with teacher/educator or loyalty discounts.

💳 0% APR Financing

  1. Check the Tesla website for current financing promotions
  2. Select “Finance” during checkout and choose the promotional APR option
  3. Complete the credit application through Tesla’s lending partner
  4. The 0% APR is applied to your loan — no separate code needed

0% APR promotions are periodic and subject to credit approval. Savings depend on loan amount and term length.

🏛️ State/Local EV Incentives

  1. Check your state’s EV incentive program (varies by state)
  2. Apply separately — most state incentives are rebates filed after purchase
  3. Some states offer point-of-sale discounts that reduce your Tesla’s price
  4. Federal EV tax credits may also apply depending on model and eligibility

Government incentives are always separate from Tesla’s own discounts and stack with everything.

Important Notes & Fine Print

A few things to keep in mind when stacking Tesla discounts.

  • ⚠️One referral code per order. You cannot use multiple referral codes on a single Tesla purchase. Pick one code and use it at checkout.
  • ⚠️Loyalty discount varies. Tesla’s loyalty discount for existing owners ranges from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the model and current promotions. It’s not always available — Tesla runs these offers periodically.
  • ⚠️Teacher discount requires verification. You must verify your educator status through Tesla’s verification process at tesla.com/education before the $500 discount is applied.
  • ⚠️Personal discounts may be exclusive. Tesla’s loyalty, teacher, and military discounts are all “personal discounts” — you may only be able to use one per order. Confirm with Tesla at the time of purchase.
  • ⚠️Enter your referral code BEFORE finalizing. Referral codes should be applied during checkout. It’s difficult (sometimes impossible) to add one after your order is placed.
  • ⚠️Tesla can change programs at any time. All discounts, promotions, and referral benefits are subject to change without notice. This guide reflects the latest information as of April 2026.
