Tesla’s new US referral offer gives eligible owners FSD-related rewards when a referred Tesla owner subscribes, while vehicle purchases are no longer listed for referral rewards. The articles agree on the main eligibility rules, but differ on when the referrer’s reward is granted.

An eligible invitee receives one month of FSD (Supervised); if they subscribe, the referrer receives either one free month or a $99 Tesla Credit, depending on how the referrer obtained FSD.
Referrers must subscribe to FSD or own it outright; invitees must meet Tesla’s ownership and prior-subscription requirements. Rewards are capped at 12 per calendar year.
Electrek says Tesla’s referral terms no longer list vehicle purchases for buyer or referrer rewards; Notebookcheck focuses on the new FSD offer and its restrictions.
