How to embed Reddit testimonials on your website

Reddit is full of honest, unprompted praise for products and services. Here’s how to capture those organic mentions and feature them as social proof on your site.

The universal snippet

Once you’ve collected your Reddit testimonials in Vouchnest, this two-line snippet displays them on any page. Works everywhere HTML is accepted.

HTML snippet

<script src="https://cdn.vouchnest.com/widget.js" data-space-id="YOUR_SPACE_ID" async></script>
<div id="vouchnest-wall"></div>

Authentic social proof

Reddit comments feel genuine because they're unsolicited. Screenshots add visual proof.

Full moderation

Import only the comments that reflect well on your brand. Approve, edit, or discard freely.

Works with other sources

Mix Reddit testimonials with Google reviews, tweets, and manual entries in one unified wall.

No code? Use the hosted wall page

  2. 2Use the Reddit API to fetch comments from specific threads, subreddits, or users.
  3. 3Build a custom component that renders Reddit comments with attribution and permalinks.

Reddit widget

Frequently asked questions

Is it legal to embed Reddit comments?+

Yes. Reddit comments are public by default and can be embedded under Reddit's terms of service. The native embed iframe includes attribution and a link back to the original thread, which we recommend keeping.

Do I need Reddit permission?+

You don't need permission from Reddit or the comment author to embed public content, as long as you provide attribution. However, it's good practice to reach out to the user if you're highlighting their comment prominently.

Can I show Reddit upvotes?+

If you use a screenshot, the upvote count is visible naturally. Native Reddit embeds display upvotes too. In Vouchnest's manual entry, you can include the upvote count as part of the testimonial metadata.

Will it work for NSFW subreddits?+

Reddit's native embed may not render content from NSFW-marked subreddits on external sites. For these cases, take a screenshot and import it manually through Vouchnest. Avoid displaying NSFW content on business websites.

Can I filter by subreddit?+

When importing manually, you choose exactly which comments to import. If you're using the Reddit API or a widget, you can filter by specific subreddits. Vouchnest's manual approach gives you the most control.
