Spend $500, get $500 free. Reddit's straightforward matching credit for new ad accounts.

Reddit gives you a $500 ad credit when you spend $500 on ads within 30 days of account creation. You have to claim the offer within 30 days, hit the spend threshold, then use the credit within another 30 days. It's a hard 1:1 match—no negotiation, no sliding scale. The upside: you're essentially doubling your first month's budget if you're already planning to test Reddit ads. The catch: you need to move fast and have real spend ready to go. Best for early-stage founders who know they want to run Reddit campaigns and can commit the cash upfront.
