What the Reddit startup program is
Reddit is one of the largest community platforms on the internet, and its self-serve ads product lets brands reach highly specific interest groups across thousands of subreddits. For startups testing paid channels, that targeting can surface niche audiences other networks miss. Reddit runs a promotional advertiser credit program that gives newer ad accounts free advertising credit to trial campaigns on the platform.

Who the Reddit perk is for
Perkstack has not pinned this listing to a single funding stage, which usually means the provider judges applicants on product and company age rather than on how much you have raised. It is a public program, so you apply directly with Reddit and nobody has to introduce you. We rate the realistic chance of approval for an eligible team as high.
What the Reddit perk is worth
Perkstack estimates this listing at about $500. Every figure on the site is an estimate of what the credit or benefit is realistically worth to an early stage company, not a quote and not a guarantee of the tier you will be offered. Providers routinely run several tiers, so treat this as the ceiling to aim at and check the program page for the current numbers.
What the listing includes
- The eligibility conditions for Reddit, written out from the provider's own terms
- The direct apply link, so you are not guessing which of the provider's five pages is the real form
- Straight through to the provider: this listing has no written guide yet, so you get the verified conditions and the direct link
- The same treatment on 234 other perks, each with a last verified date
How this listing is verified
A human last opened Reddit's own program page and confirmed this offer on May 22, 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.
