How this listing is verified
A human last opened Tailscale's own program page and confirmed this offer on Oct 17, 2026. Credit programs change quietly: tiers get cut, forms move behind partner referrals, and dead programs stay published for months. Perkstack rechecks listings and marks the ones that expire or change their terms, so the date above is the date the offer was confirmed rather than the date the page was written.
