Can you promote your product in r/alphaandbetausers?

Yes, you can promote your product in r/alphaandbetausers, but only if it fits the subreddit’s testing purpose and follows the posting rules. Posts must include a link to a product that is ready to be tested, use stage and system tags, include a description, and must not be just an email signup, launch waitlist, or future testing application page; spam, non-alpha/beta links, and NSFW products can be removed.

The rules that cover promotion

Whatever the written rules say, the pattern that gets promo removed everywhere is the same: batches of similar comments, reused wording, and necro-posting on old threads. A promotional mention only has value if it survives, so pace matters more than volume. We measured this the expensive way: 70% of bought pool comments were removed within two weeks.
