A new Canadian program is giving Tesla owners an opportunity to earn rewards simply by charging at home. WattsApp, a Toronto-based Charging Network Operator registered under Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR), has launched a platform designed to help EV owners benefit from federal clean energy incentives without any additional hardware or complicated setup.
WattsApp’s goal is straightforward: reduce the cost of EV ownership while supporting Canada’s transition to cleaner energy. The company acts as an intermediary between federal clean fuel programs and everyday drivers, handling the technical and regulatory requirements so users can receive rewards tied to their home charging activity.
You can sign up and create your own account in just minutes, with WattsApp connecting securely through Tesla’s official APIs. This allows owners to grant and revoke access at any time directly from their Tesla account.
How The WattsApp Home Charging Program Works
Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations were introduced to reduce carbon emissions by encouraging the use of clean electricity instead of fossil fuels. Programs like WattsApp translate those policies into tangible benefits for EV owners, allowing them to earn points based on how much energy they add to their vehicle.
Once a Tesla Wall Connector or Universal Wall Connector (Gen 3) is linked to the WattsApp platform, charging sessions are automatically tracked. Users earn three points for every kilowatt-hour (kWh) added during charging. For example, a typical session delivering 35 to 50 kWh could generate between 105 and 150 points. Points are credited within 24 hours and remain valid indefinitely until redeemed.
Rewards can be redeemed starting at 25,000 points, equivalent to $250 in gift cards. Higher tiers offer increased benefits, including $500 cash via e-transfer at 50,000 points or even a Tesla Wall Connector at 70,000 points.
Notably, WattsApp currently supports Tesla Gen 3 Wall Connectors and Universal Wall Connectors, with plans to expand compatibility to other internet-connected chargers in the future.
Designed For Tesla Owners in Canada
While other programs exist, few support Tesla’s home charging ecosystem in Canada. WattsApp is aiming to fill that gap, making it easier for Tesla owners to participate in clean energy credit programs.
Security and privacy are key priorities. WattsApp integrates directly with Tesla’s official APIs, meaning users are redirected to Tesla’s official login page to grant permission. While this may seem daunting, this is actually the most secure way to connect your account, as your Tesla credentials are entered only on Tesla’s official website and are never shared directly with WattsApp. Access can be reviewed or revoked at any time through the Tesla account dashboard, ensuring users maintain full control over their data and permissions.
The platform requires vehicle details such as make, model, and weight to comply with federal reporting requirements, but the entire process is automated with no manual tracking required.
Early Access Available As Beta Program Nears Capacity
WattsApp is currently in the final stages of beta testing and is inviting Tesla owners with compatible Wall Connectors to participate. Beta testers receive early access and retain all points earned during the testing phase, which can later be redeemed for rewards.
According to the WattsApp founders, the beta testing phase will end this Sunday, February 22, so be sure to sign up now to get early access.
Because the program operates in the background, you earn points simply by charging as you normally would—turning everyday charging sessions into real-world value over time.
