Tesla is preparing to let owners pay with X Money inside the Tesla app, according to code found in app version 4.62. Not a Tesla App reported on Oct. 27, 2026 that X Money could be set up as a payment method for Tesla Shop purchases, Supercharging and Full Self-Driving (Supervised) subscriptions. Tesla hasn't announced the feature.
What the code shows
- A separate teardown of iOS app 4.62.3 by X user Ming (@tslaming) found that Tesla's bundled payment library now has an X Money payment method, a wallet-account display, and payment redirect and completion handling. Ming said availability "is still unconfirmed."
- X Money is the payment service built into X. Users can send money and pay from an X wallet balance or a linked bank account.
- Not a Tesla App says X Money first turned up in Robotaxi app code last month, hinting at payments for rides.
- X Money already has a role at Tesla: it can be used for the $5,000 upfront Roadster reservation deposit, per Not a Tesla App.
Same update, other finds
App 4.62 also added large-screen layouts for iPad, iPhone Duo and Android tablets and foldables, plus code for FSD referral rewards. We covered that in Tesla app 4.62 FSD referral code.
Why it matters
X is owned by SpaceX, and Tesla and SpaceX have both formed special committees to study a possible combination. X Money in the Tesla app would be another link between Musk's companies. There's no launch date, and features found in code don't always ship.
