Can you promote in r/borrow?
Welcome to r/borrow! Reddit’s longest-standing peer lending community since 2014. We're a reputation-based peer-to-peer lending community where Redditors request short-term loans and connect with others willing to help. This community is for active, established users who value trust, transparency, and accountability. Please review our Rules and FAQs before participating. Responsible behavior and clear communication keep this space safe and effective.
The short answer
Do not market or solicit; if you must engage, act as a regular community member (no links, no messaging unless invited) and focus only on helpful, non-commercial participation.
What works here
- Posting legitimate loan requests or repayment updates using the sub's templates
- Participating respectfully in on-topic community discussions
- Answering questions with non-commercial, generic advice
What gets posts removed
- Promoting a product, service, or company
- Posting external links to landing pages, demos, signups, or surveys
- Privately messaging users unless they explicitly invite contact
- Using multiple accounts or recruiting users from other subs
