Reddit Data API provides a unified gateway to Reddit's public data, enabling developers to fetch subreddit feeds, search posts globally, extract nested comment trees, and retrieve user profiles via clean REST endpoints. The service charges $0.10 per 1,000 posts or comments, with no Reddit OAuth review, per-token rate limits, or residential proxies required. All accounts start with 12,000 free credits ($1.20 value) plus $2.00 in bonus credits for multi-day engagement. The API supports 9 core endpoints including subreddit posts (up to 100 per call), keyword and brand mention search, nested comment trees (up to 200 per call), and user karma profiles. The service guarantees zero charges on failed requests, 404 responses, or empty search results.

FAQ

How does the Unified Credit System work?
$1 equals 10,000 Credits (1 Credit = $0.0001). Charges are based on records returned: 1 Credit per post ($0.10 per 1,000 posts), 1 Credit per comment ($0.10 per 1,000 comments), and 2 Credits ($0.20 per 1,000 calls) for single subreddit metadata, post detail, or user profile lookups, with a minimum floor of 2 Credits per non-empty call.
Do I need a Reddit OAuth client ID, app approval, or residential proxies?
No. RedditDataAPI.io handles all upstream proxy rotation, session management, and multi-provider failover at the gateway layer. Unlike the Official Reddit Data API which requires commercial OAuth review and strict 100 QPM per-token caps, you simply make standard HTTPS GET requests with your x-api-key header.
Am I charged when a request fails, returns 404, or returns 0 results?
Never. Only HTTP 200 responses with non-empty data deduct credits. Upstream errors, non-existent subreddits/posts (HTTP 404), rate-limited requests (HTTP 429), and empty search results cost 0 Credits.
What are the concurrency and rate limits?
Free Trial accounts include 12,000 Credits at 60 RPM with full access to all 9 endpoints. Paid accounts scale from 120 RPM (Starter) and 300 RPM (Growth) up to 600 RPM (Scale).
What payment methods are accepted?
You can top up or subscribe instantly with 0%-fee Cryptocurrency via NOWPayments including USDT or USDC on Solana, Tron, Polygon, Arbitrum, BNB Smart Chain, and Ethereum, plus BTC, ETH, and SOL with an automatic +5% bonus credit reward.
