What you're actually buying

TSLAx stands for one Tesla share. xStocks holds the real TSLA shares and you hold the token. You get the price moves and reinvested dividends. You don't get voting rights or a place on Tesla's shareholder register.

Tesla manufactures electric vehicles and energy generation and storage products.

Good to know in New Zealand

  • The FMA publishes warnings about firms to avoid. Check them before signing up to any platform.

Questions people ask

Can I buy Tesla stock from New Zealand?

Pump.fun doesn't block New Zealand, so you can buy TSLAx, a token that stands for one Tesla share. We haven't checked New Zealand's own tax and legal rules yet, so look at the notes on this page and the regulator's website first.

Is TSLAx the same as owning Tesla shares?

Not quite. TSLAx is issued by xStocks, which holds real TSLA shares to back each token 1:1. You get the price moves and reinvested dividends, but no voting rights and you're not on Tesla's shareholder register.

How much does it cost to buy TSLAx?

Pump.fun charges 0.40% platform fee per trade with a referral code, plus Solana network fees and any third-party swap fees. If you top up with Apple Pay or a card, the payment provider may add its own fee.

Do I need a US broker to buy Tesla?

Not for the token. You buy TSLAx with crypto in the Pump.fun app. If you want real TSLA shares in your name, you'd need a broker that accepts people living in New Zealand.
