What are Awards?

Awards are given by redditors to other redditors for their contributions. Posts or comments with an Award are highlighted, and can grant the author Reddit Premium or Coins. These are the different types of Awards.

Platinum Award

Platinum Award requires 1,800 Coins, and gives the recipient with one month of Reddit Premium membership (which includes 700 Coins for that month).

Gold Award

Gold Award requires 500 Coins and gives the recipient a week of Reddit Premium membership and 100 Coins.

Silver Award

Silver Award requires 100 Coins, which simply marks a post or comment with a Silver Award icon.

Community Awards

Give unique community-specific Awards, while also giving back! Moderators can create their own Awards for their communities called Community Awards. These Awards give a portion of the proceeds to the community moderators to recognize members for their contributions to the community.

Mod Awards

Remember when we said moderators can recognize their members? Well Mod Awards are one way they can. Community moderators use the Coins from Community Awards to give special Awards to recognize their members. Keep a look out for these rare Awards.

How do I give Awards?

Give an Award by clicking on "Give Award" button below a post or comment. A modal will appear with a selection of Awards you can give, described above. Choose the one you’d like to give and configure the options. Awards are given privately, and can be given anonymously or from your username. If you choose, you can also attach a private message.
