Terms of Use

Payment Terms

General

These Payment Terms describe your agreement to pay for current and future goods and services, together with any charges or fees applied by us related to goods or services. In these Payment Terms, ‘we’ and ‘us’ mean the Tesla group entity supplying the goods and services in your country.

In order to use certain services, such as Supercharging, authorized automatic or one-time payments, recurring payments and subscriptions, you allow Tesla to store, maintain, and recover funds from your specified payment method in accordance with these Payment Terms. Tesla may amend these terms from time to time and any changes are effective when posted to this page.

When you add a payment method to your Tesla Account, such as a credit card, certain information including, but not limited to device location, device identification number, and card information may be sent to Tesla and shared with our payment processor. Card information is encrypted during the transmission and Tesla will not have access to the actual card number. When the stored payment method or a new credit card is used for purchasing goods and services on a Tesla hosted website or application, the necessary information to process payment will be shared with our global processors and our banking partners, to process your payment, comply with financial regulations, to prevent fraud, and for troubleshooting any payment issues. When you pay using your bank account details, those details are stored by Tesla in an encrypted format that prevents unauthorized access without specific permissions. For information on how we handle your payment information, please see Tesla’s Privacy Notice.

You must maintain at least one valid payment method in your Tesla Account. Any services received may result in charges being applied to your saved payment method, and charges may include taxes as required by law. Your failure to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date payment information, including an invalid or expired payment method, may result in your inability to access or use services such as Supercharging.

When you request a bank payment such as an Automated Clearing House (ACH) or Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) payment transfer, and where required by law, we will inform you at least three days before the initial payment due date, and up to one day before payment is collected. You may amend or cancel this authorization at any time by providing us with thirty (30) days’ notice. You have certain recourse rights if any debit does not comply with this agreement, such as the right to receive reimbursement in the event of an unauthorized debit inconsistent with these terms. To obtain more information on your recourse rights, contact your financial institution.

For charges that support automatic or recurring payments, you understand that your payment method will be charged each time your service automatically renews at the end of the prescribed period, unless turned off at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the end of the current billing period. You can manage or turn off automatic payments in your Tesla Account at any time.

Any person who uses your vehicle can also make use of the services described in these Payment Terms, and you will remain responsible to Tesla for payment of the applicable charges. Tesla will require payment from you using the payment method saved in your Tesla Account. You will be able to review a summary of transactions in your Tesla Account.

In the event that any attempt to recover funds from you should fail using the payment method saved in your Tesla Account, you agree to allow Tesla to recover all or less than all of the amount owed for goods or services as set out in this clause. If we are unable to collect payment, we may contact you based on your information on file or may request payment when we are performing services for you. If you violate these Payment Terms, such as by not paying past due and unchallenged amounts, we may limit or block your vehicle's ability to use the related services until payment issues are resolved.

Vehicle Charging Policy

Tesla offers convenient charging options to fit your lifestyle and driving needs, including Superchargers, Wall Connectors and other charging stations. Except to the extent set out in applicable law, Tesla will not be liable for any damage or loss suffered as a result of your use of a charging station or Tesla’s payment processes. In addition to the fees detailed below, you also authorize Tesla to tow your vehicle if it blocks a charging stall while you are not actively charging.

Idle Fees. A Supercharger or other charging station may have either idle fees or congestion fees, but not both. Idle fees will accrue if indicated in the map pin pop-up for the charging station (accessible through the navigation application on your Tesla vehicle’s touchscreen or in the Tesla app) or if it is otherwise communicated that idle fees apply. In consideration of others who need to use a Supercharger or any other Tesla charging station, we ask that you move your vehicle when it is finished charging. To encourage this, you will incur an idle fee for the time your vehicle remains parked in a charging stall or connected to a charging station after it is finished charging. We will waive the idle fee if your vehicle is moved within five minutes after it is finished charging. At Superchargers, idle fees will not accumulate while less than half of the charging stalls at the station are occupied. All vehicles are subject to idle fees, regardless of when your vehicle was purchased and whether it is a Tesla or non-Tesla vehicle. To avoid idle fees, we recommend you monitor your vehicle while using a Tesla charging station and encourage you to use the Tesla mobile app to track your vehicle's charge status.

Idle fees are incurred on a per minute basis. The idle fee rate for each location may change from time to time, and the latest information is provided in the map pin pop-up for the charging station or as is otherwise communicated to you. By remaining parked in a charging stall or connected to a charger after your vehicle is finished charging, you accept the idle fee rate communicated to you. For additional information, please see our idle fee support page.

Congestion Fees. A Supercharger or other charging station may have either idle fees or congestion fees, but not both. Congestion fees will accrue if indicated in the map pin pop-up for the charging station (accessible through the navigation application on your Tesla vehicle’s touchscreen or in the Tesla app) or if it is otherwise communicated that congestion fees apply. Congestion fees only apply when the site is busy and (i) your vehicle has reached a high battery charge level or (ii) once charging is complete, whichever comes first. The threshold of charging stall occupancy used to determine whether the site is busy and the charge level where congestion fees apply vary by location and will be communicated through alerts on the vehicle touchscreen. Additionally, the Tesla app will alert owners when their battery has reached the charge level where congestion fees may apply. If a site is busy, you will incur a congestion fee for the time your vehicle remains parked in a charging stall or connected to a charging station after it has reached the indicated battery charge level or once charging is complete, whichever comes first. We will waive the congestion fees incurred after you reach the indicated battery charge level or once charging is complete, whichever comes first, if your car is moved within five minutes after it reaches said threshold. All vehicles are subject to congestion fees, regardless of when your vehicle was purchased and whether it is a Tesla or non-Tesla vehicle. Vehicles with free, unlimited Supercharging will not be charged a congestion fee during an active charging session, but congestion fees will apply once the vehicle is fully charged and/or the charging session has ended. To avoid congestion fees, we recommend you monitor your vehicle while using a Tesla charging station and encourage you to use the Tesla mobile app to track your vehicle's charge status.

Congestion fees are incurred on a per minute basis. The congestion fee rate for each location, the site occupancy threshold, and the battery charge level where congestion fees may accrue may change from time to time. The latest information on the congestion fee rate for each location is provided in the map pin pop-up for the charging station, and the latest battery charge level at which congestion fees apply is displayed on your vehicle touchscreen, or as is otherwise communicated to you. By remaining parked in a charging stall or connected to a charger after it reaches the state of charge indicated for congestion fees or once charging is complete, you accept the congestion fee rate communicated to you. For additional information, please see our congestion fee support page.

Pay Per Use — Supercharger. All Tesla vehicles are enabled for Supercharging on a pay per use basis. Any credits for free Supercharging, including any annual renewal of credits, expire upon the end of the specified time period, or upon sale or transfer of the vehicle, whichever occurs first.

Non-Tesla vehicles may access the Supercharger network on a pay per use basis. Supercharger stations that are available to non-Tesla vehicles are indicated in the Tesla app, and may not include all locations. In order to charge a non-Tesla vehicle you must download the Tesla app and create a Tesla Account. You must then store a valid payment method in your Tesla Account, which will be used for all one-time or recurring payments, and agree to these Payment Terms. We will place a temporary payment authorization hold on your payment method at the start of each charge session, and will release the authorization when your charge session is complete and successfully paid.

Tesla offers an optional Supercharger membership that allows non-Tesla vehicles to charge at lower pay per use billing rates than would otherwise apply. A separate membership is needed for each Tesla Account, and each membership is limited to a maximum of five Supercharger charge sessions per day. Membership renews automatically on a monthly basis for a fee charged at the start of each month. Membership pricing and signup details are available in the Tesla app.

The pay per use billing unit and rate for each location may change from time to time, and the latest information is provided in the map pin pop-up (accessible through the navigation application on your Tesla vehicle touchscreen or in the Tesla app). Map pin pop-ups on the Tesla vehicle touchscreen show pricing for Tesla vehicles. Pricing for non-Tesla vehicles is shown in map pin pop-ups in the Tesla Account holders’ Tesla app (and will show either member or non-member pricing, whichever applies to the Tesla Account). By charging your vehicle in a particular location, you accept the price of charging communicated to you through the map pin pop-up. For additional information, please see our Supercharger support page.

Pay Per Use — Other Charging Stations. All Tesla vehicles are enabled to charge on Wall Connectors and other Tesla charging stations. Charging is on a pay per use basis if indicated on the map pin pop-up for the charging station (accessible through the navigation application on your Tesla vehicle’s touchscreen or in the Tesla app) or if it is otherwise communicated that there is a charge to use the charging station.

Non-Tesla vehicles may access certain Wall Connectors and other Tesla charging stations on a pay per use basis. Charging stations that are available to non-Tesla vehicles are indicated in the Tesla app or may be identified by other means. In order to charge a non-Tesla vehicle you must download the Tesla app and create a Tesla Account. You must then store a valid payment method in your Tesla Account, which will be used for all one-time or recurring payments, and agree to these Payment Terms. We will place a temporary payment authorization hold on your payment method at the start of each charge session, and will release the authorization when your charge session is complete and successfully paid.

The pay per use billing unit and rate for each location may change from time to time, and the latest information is provided in the map pin pop-up or as is otherwise communicated to you. By charging your vehicle in a particular location, you accept the price of charging communicated to you. For additional information, please see our Supercharger support page.

Supercharger Fair Use Policy

We are continually expanding our global network of Supercharger stations, which enable long distance travel and provide a charging solution for those without access to charging at home or work, and are thereby accelerating the world’s transition to sustainable energy.

To help ensure Superchargers are available for their intended use, we ask that you not charge your vehicle using a Supercharger if your vehicle is being used for a commercial purpose (such as a taxi or for ridesharing through services like Uber or Lyft), unless you charge on a pay per use basis.

If you charge your vehicle in a manner that does not comply with this Supercharger Fair Use Policy, we may ask you to modify this behavior, or we may take additional action to protect the availability of Superchargers for their intended purpose, such as limiting or blocking your vehicle’s ability to use Supercharger stations.

This Policy applies to all Superchargers worldwide and all Tesla vehicles with free unlimited Supercharging or free Supercharging for the lifetime of vehicle ownership, purchased, either new or used, whether from Tesla or a third party, after December 15, 2017.

Charging Alternatives: We encourage the commercial use of Tesla vehicles while using appropriate charging solutions. Please reach out to your local sales contact to explore transitioning to pay per use charging, or other vehicle and charging options that suit your needs. For questions related to home charging, please contact charginginstallation@tesla.com.

Anti-Vandalism Policy

Users of Superchargers and other Tesla charging stations may not intentionally cause damage to equipment, vehicles, or other property on site. Anyone who violates this policy may be prohibited from using Tesla charging stations and held responsible for the cost of the damage.

Third-Party Adapter Policy

To avoid risk of serious injury and property damage, users of Tesla charging stations may only use adapters sold or provided by Tesla or by other automakers in the United States. Your use of any other adapter with Tesla’s charging stations is strictly prohibited.

This monitoring may include Tesla accessing and using Licensee's API Client or Application, for example to identify security issues that could affect Tesla or its users. Licensee may not interfere with this monitoring or access by Tesla. Tesla may use any technical means to overcome any interference that Tesla reasonably believes is occurring. To the extent any information collected and used by Tesla includes Personal Data, Tesla is separate Controller for the collection and use of such Personal Data for the above purposes and will Process such Personal Data in accordance with applicable data protection law and with the Tesla Privacy Notice.

8.3. Processing of Individuals' Personal Data in the Context of the API and Application.

8.3.1. Use of the API may enable Licensee to collect, use, disclose or otherwise process Personal Data about vehicle owners, vehicle operators, vehicle drivers, and passengers (each, an “Individual”). Without prejudice to the rest of this § 8, Licensee acknowledges that Licensee acts as a Controller when processing Individuals' Personal Data in the context of the API. As a Controller, Licensee has the sole and exclusive responsibility for complying with any and all applicable international, federal, state and local laws and regulations (depending on the jurisdiction of the API users) relating to the privacy, confidentiality, security and protection of Personal Data, including, without limitation: the California Consumer Privacy Act, Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act in Canada, Mexico's Federal Data Protection law, privacy laws applicable to the European Union, the European Economic Area and their member states, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR); laws regulating unsolicited e-mail communications; security breach notification laws; laws imposing minimum security requirements and other regulations relating to the processing of Personal Data (collectively, “Data Protection Laws”). Licensee shall cooperate with Tesla in order to comply with, and to facilitate Tesla's compliance with, applicable Laws, including Data Protection Laws.

8.3.2. As required under applicable Data Protection Laws and this Agreement, Licensee must: (a) provide notice in clear and plain language to Individuals about the collection, use, or disclosure of their Personal Data; (b) provide all necessary notices to and obtain all necessary consents in writing from Individuals, in particular Licensee must obtain vehicle drivers' and passengers' explicit, prior, specific, informed and freely given consent for the processing of Personal Data which is at least as protective as identified in Standard Minimum Terms, and provide a copy of any such consent to Tesla upon request; (c) comply with applicable regulatory filings and legal requirements before a data protection authority, or alternatively, legal requirements in relation to maintaining respective data protection inventories; (d) comply with applicable labor law restrictions such as obtaining vehicle drivers' consent or informing, consulting or obtaining authorization from employees' representative or works council as applicable; (e) comply with applicable data transfer restrictions; (f) comply with requests and inquiries from competent data protection authorities; and (g) comply with Individuals' requests to exercise their rights of access, correction, blocking or deletion of Personal Data, or to withdraw their consent. Licensee must ensure that all Users understand and consent to the full scope of Licensee's Processing of Personal Data before downloading or installing the Application and before any Processing of such User's Personal Data occurs. Licensee shall make available to Users and shall adhere to a privacy policy with respect to the Application that complies with all applicable Data Protection Laws and all relevant app store policies and fully, accurately, and clearly describes to Users what data Licensee will collect, how Licensee will use and Process such data, and how Users can request access to and deletion of their Personal Data. Tesla will not respond to requests from Individuals, unless instructed by Licensee in writing to do so. Tesla will reasonably cooperate with Licensee if an Individual wants to access, rectify, delete or block his/her Personal Data or in case of an investigation by a data protection authority if Licensee has documented such requests in writing. Licensee shall reimburse Tesla for Tesla's costs arising from such cooperation.

8.3.3. Licensee may Process Tesla Personal Data only in accordance with Licensee's privacy policy, applicable Data Protection Laws, and this Agreement. Licensee's privacy policy does not supersede or modify, and may not be inconsistent with, this Agreement or the Tesla Privacy Notice. If any conflict exists between Licensee's Privacy Policy and the Tesla Privacy Notice, the Tesla Privacy Notice will take precedence. Licensee shall maintain publicly available and accurate links to its privacy policy for each Application.

8.3.4. With respect to international data transfers, the parties hereby enter into the Standard Contractual Clauses integrated into this Agreement. The processing operations are deemed to be those described in this Agreement. Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, parties shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including any other controls mandated by applicable data protection laws. Licensee must maintain reasonable and appropriate safeguards and other security measures designed to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of Personal Data within the API; (b) protect Personal Data against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such information; and (c) protect Personal Data against any actual or suspected unauthorized processing, loss, use, disclosure or acquisition of or access to such information. Licensee shall exercise all necessary and appropriate supervision over its relevant personnel to maintain appropriate privacy, confidentiality, and security of Personal Data. Licensee must take its own precautions to ensure that the process, which Licensee employs for accessing the API does not expose Licensee to the risk of viruses, malicious computer code or other forms of interference which may damage Licensee own computer system. For the removal of doubt, Tesla does not accept responsibility for any interference or damage to Licensee's network or computer system, which arises in connection with use of this API.

8.3.5. Before an Application collects or stores any Recording or Precise Geolocation (whether on a local device or on a server), Licensee must obtain express, opt-in consent from each affected User, and the Application must display a reasonably conspicuous audio, visual, or other indicator to indicate (as applicable) that a Recording is being made or that a Precise Geolocation is being determined.

8.3.6. Licensee may not Process Tesla Personal Data that is an Individual's Sensitive Information. Licensee may not use data to infer or derive Sensitive Information regarding Individuals in the context of using the API or an Application.

8.3.7. An Application may not collect Personal Data or device data without prior, express, opt-in consent of the User. Licensee may not broaden or otherwise change the scope of usage for previously collected Personal Data or device data to include advertising without obtaining prior, expressly, opt-in User consent for such expanded or otherwise changed usage.

8.3.8. Licensee shall immediately notify Tesla and provide any information reasonably requested by Tesla if Licensee knows of or suspects any security incident or data breach involving Tesla Personal Data or any incident of unauthorized access to or Processing of Tesla Personal Data or any incident that has or is reasonably likely to compromise the security, confidentiality, or integrity of systems owned or used by Licensee or its Subprocessor that Process or relate to Tesla Personal Data. In the event of any of the foregoing incidents, Licensee shall consult and cooperate with Tesla, assist with any required notices, keep Tesla regularly updated about the incident, and immediately remedy any breach or potential vulnerability resulting from Licensee's possession, custody, control, or access to the Tesla Personal Data.

8.3.9. Except to the extent Licensee is required to retain Tesla Personal Data under applicable Law, Licensee shall promptly update and delete any Tesla Personal Data in its possession, custody, or control when:

8.3.9.1. Retaining it is no longer necessary for an Application's stated and approved functionality that is permitted under this Agreement;

8.3.9.2. Licensee stops operating the Application;

8.3.9.3. Tesla requests that Licensee delete it;

8.3.9.4. The applicable Individual exercises their right to deletion; or

8.3.9.5. Required by applicable Law.
