All you need to know about Tello’s Referral Program
Tello’s Referal program
Share the Tello love with a friend and you both get rewarded!
If switching to Tello Mobile will certainly turn into the easiest savings you’ll ever make, referring a friend will become the easiest money you’ll make.
Tello’s Referral Program is designed to help you spread the love for our service and earn extra bucks. We are taking questions about it and since over 2k of our customers are using the program and loving it, we are giving the FAQ a section of their own, below. Enjoy!
? How to refer a friend via Tello’s Referral Program?
First things first: you need to be a Tello customer.
All sunshine and rainbows after that:
- Log into your Tello account
- Go to My Tello – Dashboard
- Find your Unique Referral Link
- Share it with your friends on FB, Twitter or via email
Easy peasy!
? How many friends can I refer?
You can refer as many friends as you like.
So, Mr. Life of the Party, what are you waiting for? Start referring and start earning some extra cash. Our customers were already raving about Tello, so why not reward them for it?
? Do I get Tello Dollars if I just tell a friend about you?
No.
Your friend must open a Tello account using your referral code in order for you both to win Tello Dollars. You can share your referral code directly from your Dashboard. The Tello Dollars will appear in your account after your friend places his/her first successful order.
? Do I start earning Tello Dollars immediately?
As soon as your referred friend places a successful order with Tello, you both get 10 Tello Dollars.
? What are Tello Dollars, how can I use them?
Think about Tello Dollars as Thank You Points, or rewards, but cooler.
They transform into account credit and can be used to make a purchase (plan, Pay As You Go Credit or a phone), once the amount of Tello Dollars is enough to pay for the entire invoice. No partial payments are allowed at the moment, but for many of our customers, their earned Tello Dollars added up in months of free of charge service, not too shabby right?
We called them Tello Dollars because the entire program is meant to be more than a simple Thank You Points system. In Tello’s case, both people get rewarded, the one that helps a friend discover the service via a special link, as well as the one that receives the referral link. Win – win ?!
? Why are they called Tello Dollars, does that mean they have monetary value?
The Tello Dollars do not have a direct monetary value.
Each Tello Dollar is, however, equivalent to $1 account credit on Tello Mobile and can be used as payment method, for the entire phone bill or even to buy a phone. More friends, more benefits!
? Do Tello Dollars expire?
Your Tello Dollars will expire if no activity is registered in your account for 6 months (no call or order placed).
? What if my friends think Tello is too good to be true?
We’re not gonna lie to you, this is bound to happen. But once you show them your tiny phone bills and the real advantages of the service, they’ll come around.
If you’re saving and you know it, share the news! After all, friends don’t let friends overpay for wireless. Moreover, Tello Dollars are a great incentive.
You have the certainty that you’re recommending a 5-star quality service and your friends see the instant benefits in their account, after making a successful order. There’s no easier way to save money on your phone bill!

Yellow should get sprint to give coverage at santee, summerton, clarendon cty, cty wide then I would get rid of cricket completely. Just have yellow and a I phone. Thx
Tello.not yellow.
My comment is, I wish tello had an auto-renewal day. I hate to renew every month
Tello is missing the mark competor offering $15 month 2G talk and text with much better Tmobile carrier for first 3 months purchase. By a year for $180 after that includes wifi calling. My Telo will not work in many small towns even if Sprint has roaming privileges.
Wait Louis
That was spoken like a true Tmobile employee..hmmm
I have Tello dollars, but no way to tell Tello to use those to pay for my bill.
Shaw,
Thanks for reaching out. Tello Dollars appear as a payment method when completing your order, but should you need more help, please call our Customer Support Team and they’ll happily assist you in the matter. Great day!
Is there a time limit for the referral program? After 4 days of struggling with TracFone, I finally got my old number ported to Tello. My wife also has a TF account, but it won’t expire until later this year. Given the hell that I have gone through to get out of TracFone, I want to persuade her to switch.
Hi,
Happy to hear you’re working as a Tello ambassador and trying to get your wife on the good side of wireless, thanks!
Your Tello dollars are safe – there’s one case in which they expire: if no activity is registered in the Customer’s account for 6 months (no call or no order placed), the Tello Dollars will expire.
Great day!
I was referred by a friend and my account does shows $10 “You can use this bonus to pay an entire phone bill or buy a new phone. Find out how you can earn even more by referring your own friends” in “order history”. But in payment it shows that in October, $10 will come off my credit card. Where does it say HOW to use the $10? There is no link with that little congratulatory note!
Hi Margit,
In order to use your Tello Dollars, you need to manually renew your plan before the automatic renewal. I can see your plan renews on Oct 21, you can log in to My Tello account on Oct 20 and press the button “RENEW NOW | $10 + Taxes”.
In the checkout, you will have the option to select “Pay with Tello $”. And once the selection is done, you will not pay any other taxes for this order and the total will be $0.
Please let us know if you need extra help with this ;)

Does my friend need to make buy certain minimum plan for new SIM? or any plan is qualifies for new SIM?
Hi Huzaifa,
Any plan is OK ;)
Such a pity that our referral link you provided me with leads to the wrong page. Itg oes directl to the signup page, not that lovely well detailed sales presentation that starts on the website home page. Prehaps youcould get that corrected? Coinversion will go WAY higher.
Hi,
I just signed up for Tello and even just made a purchase to start a plan and receive a new Tello sim card for my unlocked phone. I heard about it from my mom but didn’t realize she may actually have her own Tello account already, nor was I aware of the referral incentive until post-purchase on my new account. Is there still a way I can give her credit for the referral at this point?
You can try calling our Customer Support Team for this matter. They might be able to help you.
