Check how old any Reddit account is, see their karma breakdown, and find out if they meet posting requirements.
Reddit treats every new account as a potential bot or spammer. Account age is the simplest signal they use to filter out low-quality users before they cause harm.

Age restrictions only affect posting and link submissions. You can comment freely in almost every subreddit from day one. Use that time to build karma and establish yourself as a genuine community member.
Creating a new account to bypass age restrictions is against Reddit's Terms of Service. It also resets your karma and history. The safer path is always to wait and build legitimately.
The combination of account age and karma is your key to any subreddit. A 90-day-old account with 500 karma will have near-zero friction posting in any marketing-relevant community.

Everything you need to know about Reddit account age and trust requirements.
Reddit uses account age as a trust signal. New accounts are treated as potential spam or bot accounts. Many subreddits require accounts to be at least 30, 60, or even 90 days old before allowing posts or link submissions. Older accounts also face less scrutiny from Reddit's spam filters.
It varies by subreddit. General subreddits like r/AskReddit have no minimum age. Niche and professional subreddits typically require 30-90 days. Finance and crypto subreddits often require 60-90+ days. Always check the subreddit sidebar or rules tab for their specific requirements.
No. Account age is based on the actual date the account was created and cannot be accelerated. However, you can build karma quickly during the waiting period by commenting genuinely in communities. This way, when your account reaches the required age, you already have the karma needed to post.
You can use this tool to check any account including your own. Simply enter your username. You can also find your account creation date in your Reddit profile settings under "Account Settings".
