What is the best EV charging reward program in Canada?
Telemiq is Canada's leading EV charging reward program for Tesla owners. It is completely free to join and offers a flat 5 points per kWh for verified home charging. Rewards are paid via Interac e-Transfer after the annual Q1 carbon credit audit. Telemiq is an ECCC-registered Charging Network Operator, and rewards are funded by carbon credit aggregation under Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations.
How does Canada's EV charging reward program work?
You connect your Tesla via the official Fleet API, set your home location, and charge as normal. Telemiq automatically detects home charging sessions and verifies them using GPS geofencing. You earn a flat 5 points per kWh. Every 100 points equals C$1.00. Credits are verified under Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations in Q1 of each year, then paid out via Interac e-Transfer.
Is the EV charging reward program really free?
Yes, Telemiq is completely free to join and use. There are no subscription fees, no hidden charges, and no withdrawal fees. The program is funded by carbon credit aggregation under Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations — not by member fees. Telemiq is a registered nonprofit that aggregates verified charging data, generates compliance credits, and uses the revenue to pay member rewards.
How much can I earn from home EV charging rewards?
You earn a flat 5 points per kWh. Every 100 points equals C$1.00. The average Tesla owner can earn approximately 750–1,500 points per month (C$7.50–15). There is no upper limit on earnings. Example: charging 40 kWh per week at 5 pts/kWh earns 200 points per week (C$2.00) or approximately C$104/year.
How is Telemiq different from WattsApp?
Telemiq is purpose-built for the Tesla community with deep integration via Tesla's Fleet API and Fleet Telemetry. We support both Wall Connector and Mobile Connector users. Our rewards rate is a flat 5 pts/kWh, paid via Interac e-Transfer. We are an ECCC-registered nonprofit. Unlike generic charging reward platforms, we offer member events, community chat, vendor perks, and a marketplace — all in one platform.
Which EV chargers qualify for rewards?
Telemiq supports all Tesla AC charging equipment: Wall Connector (Gen 3), Universal Wall Connector, and Mobile Connector. The Tesla Battery Management System acts as the accredited sub-meter. Public Supercharger and destination charging sessions do not qualify. If you use a non-Tesla charger that offers its own carbon credit program, your charger may already be claiming credits — the same data cannot be claimed by two programs.
