How to Create Multiple Reddit Accounts in 2025

Reddit allows users to create and manage multiple accounts. However, just because this is allowed does not grant immunity from bans.

Reddit's detection systems are very advanced. If you manage multiple accounts carelessly, they risk being flagged, suspended, or shadowbanned-sometimes all at once.

This guide explains how to effectively create and manage multiple Reddit accounts. Whether for marketing, research, or personal use, we'll show you how to remain safe, undetected, and organized.

TL;DR: Multi-Account Reddit Management in 2025

Reddit allows users to have multiple accounts but bans them for linking those accounts through IP addresses, fingerprints, behavior, or automation.

If you’re serious about growing your Reddit presence safely, here's the checklist that works:

  • Use AdsPower to isolate each Reddit account with its own fingerprint and proxy
  • Assign a unique IP and avoid sharing cookies or sessions
  • Vary your activity patterns-posting times, tone, subreddits
  • Warm up accounts gradually like real users
  • Never log in outside of the isolated browser profile
  • Use quality residential or mobile proxies, not free or reused ones
  • Stick to Reddit’s rules and subreddit guidelines
  • Monitor account health regularly and don't push too hard, too fast

Whether you’re running two accounts or managing twenty, this setup keeps you clean, scalable, and safe.

Why Use Multiple Reddit Accounts?

Users may create multiple Reddit accounts for a variety of reasons:

  • Separate interests: One account for gaming, another for finance, a third for memes.
  • Privacy: Post about sensitive topics without linking them to your main identity.
  • Marketing and testing: Try different post styles, subreddits, or times to see what performs best.
  • Business presence: Run support, brand, or moderator accounts separately.
  • Redundancy: If one account is unfairly banned from a subreddit, you can keep participating elsewhere.

How Reddit Detects Linked Accounts

Reddit doesn't require you to make a big mistake. One signal is enough to begin linking your accounts; several signals could lead to a ban.

Reddit analyzes various factors to detect multiple accounts controlled by the same person:

IP Address

This is a common mistake. If multiple accounts log in from the same IP address, Reddit assumes they are linked.

Using proxies or mobile hotspots to change your IP address can be a helpful start, but Reddit is looking for some extra measures to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Browser Fingerprinting

Your browser leaks more information than you think.

Reddit can see the following information via your browser:

  • Your operating system version
  • Browser type and version
  • Screen resolution
  • Timezone
  • Installed fonts and plugins
  • Canvas and WebGL fingerprint
  • Typing behavior patterns

These details create a unique identifying fingerprint. If your accounts share any of these details, Reddit will connect them.

Cookies and Session Overlap

Logging into multiple accounts within the same browser session or without clearing cookies connects those accounts behind the scenes.

Behavior Patterns

Reddit's machine learning models can identify when:

  • Accounts vote for each other's content
  • Posts are too similar in style or language
  • You use identical posting schedules or subreddit behavior
  • Multiple accounts post the same link or comment format

These do not require direct evidence; they are patterns that Reddit responds to.

Why Most Manual Multi-Account Methods Fail

Reddit’s detection relies on multiple signals working together. This is why most casual attempts at managing multiple accounts fail quickly.

Let's look at the common methods and why they don’t work for you.

1. Logging In and Out Manually

Logging in and out of the same browser does not isolate sessions. Your cookies and fingerprints remain the same. Reddit tracks all activities.

This setup may work for two hobby accounts, but it isn’t scalable or secure.

2. Incognito or Private Windows

This may provide a fresh session, but your IP address and fingerprint remain unchanged. Reddit still recognizes it as the same user. This approach creates a false sense of security and offers no real protection.

3. Using Different Browser Profiles

Browser profiles isolate cookies and history, which helps. But your fingerprint and IP remain nearly identical across profiles unless you make major technical changes.

4. VPNs and Basic Proxies

Changing your IP address is a beginning, but Reddit flags suspicious proxy IP addresses, particularly free or reused ones. Furthermore, changing your IP does not prevent fingerprint overlap. This method provides only a partial fix, not a complete solution.

5. Multiple Devices

While using different devices is more secure, it is unworkable. Managing and purchasing numerous laptops or phones isn't attainable, and your network IP might still reveal your identity.

These methods may allow you to create multiple Reddit accounts. However, if you are regularly managing several accounts or using them for marketing or business purposes, you need a more robust solution.

The Reliable Way: Use Anti-Detect Browsers

If you want to safely run multiple Reddit accounts, Anti-Detect Browser is the tool that actually works. It's built for exactly this purpose-creating isolated, undetectable browser environments that make each account look like it's being managed by a different person on a different device.

Here's why serious Reddit marketers and agencies use Anti-Detect Browser:

1. Unique Browser Fingerprints for Each Account

Each Anti-Detect Browser browser profile has a completely different fingerprint, including:

  • Operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android)
  • Browser engine and version (Mimic or Stealthfox)
  • Screen resolution, GPU, CPU, RAM
  • Language, timezone, fonts, plugins
  • WebGL and canvas fingerprint spoofing

Reddit sees each profile as a different user. It's not just "different enough"-it's fully randomized to look like real, distinct people.

2. Dedicated Proxies Per Profile

You can assign a separate proxy (residential, mobile, or datacenter) to each browser profile. This gives each Reddit account its own IP address.

Bonus: Anti-Detect Browser lets you test and manage proxies directly in the dashboard, so you're not juggling settings manually.

3. Cookie and Session Isolation

Each browser profile stores its own cookies, cache, and local storage-just like a separate computer. No cross-contamination. No accidental links.

4. Dashboard and Bulk Management

Managing multiple accounts isn't just about not getting caught. It's about staying organized. Anti-Detect Browser helps you:

  • Label, tag, and group Reddit profiles
  • Launch dozens of accounts simultaneously
  • Share profiles with teammates securely, without sharing passwords
  • Export and back up your profiles

5. Optional Automation (If You Need It)

If you're running campaigns at scale, you can use Selenium or Puppeteer to automate Reddit actions (posting, commenting, etc.) within Anti-Detect Browser.

Anti-Detect Browser makes your automation look human-not bot-like-thanks to its fingerprint control.

How to Set Up Multiple Reddit Accounts with Anti-Detect Browser (Step-by-Step)

Here's a simple walkthrough to create and manage multiple Reddit accounts using Multilogin, GoLogin, or AdsPower without triggering Reddit's detection systems.

Step 1: Install and Log In

  • Go to adspower.com (or the others) and sign up
  • Download and install the app for Windows, macOS, or Linux
  • Log in to the AdsPower desktop application
set up adspower

Step 2: Create a New Browser Profile

  • Click "New Browser Profile"
  • Name it something clear like "Reddit – Gaming Persona" or "Reddit – Marketing Account A"
  • Choose your preferred browser engine:
    • Mimic (Chromium) - Best for most use cases
    • Stealthfox (Firefox) - Ideal if you need Firefox-specific features

AdsPower will auto-generate a unique fingerprint. You can customize it if you want, but the defaults already work well for Reddit.

Step 3: Assign a Proxy

  • Use one proxy per profile
  • Choose high-quality residential or mobile proxies for the best results
  • Never use free or datacenter proxies, they're often flagged

To add the proxy:

  • Enter the IP, port, username, and password
  • Click "Check the network" to test it
  • Save the settings

Step 4: Launch the Profile and Sign Up for Reddit

  • Click "Start" to open the new browser window
  • Go to reddit.com
  • Create your Reddit account with a unique email, username, and password
    • You can reuse an email (Reddit allows this), but using separate emails is better for organization and separation
  • Complete the onboarding steps naturally

Step 5: Warm Up Your New Account

Don't go straight into posting links or mass commenting. Let your account age naturally:

  • Browse for 5-10 minutes daily
  • Upvote a few posts and comments
  • Leave thoughtful comments on different subreddits
  • Avoid patterns that look automated or spammy
  • After a few days, you can gradually start posting.

    Step 6: Repeat for Each New Account

    Each Reddit account should:

    • Use a separate browser profile
    • Have its own proxy and fingerprint
    • Be warmed up like a real user

    AdsPower organises everything neatly in a single dashboard.

    Best Practices to Stay Undetected When Creating Multiple Accounts

    Success with AdsPower relies on how human-like your accounts appear. Reddit bans accounts not only for being linked but also for exhibiting fake behavior. Here's how to avoid that.

    1. Vary Behavior Across Accounts

    Reddit's machine learning picks up on patterns. If all your accounts:

    • Post at the same time
    • Use the same writing style
    • Join the same subreddits
    • Upvote the same content

    You're leaving a trail.

    Make each account behave like a real, separate person.

    • Post in different subreddits
    • Use different writing tones or personas
    • Spread activity across time zones
    • Avoid simultaneous upvoting or cross-supporting posts

    2. Warm Up New Accounts Slowly

    Brand-new accounts are fragile. If they post links or get too active too soon, they'll be flagged.

    • Week 1: Browse and upvote only
    • Week 2: Leave 2-3 comments per day
    • Week 3: Start posting, but avoid self-promotion

    This delay builds trust with Reddit's systems.

    3. Never Log In Outside of AdsPower

    Avoid accessing your Reddit account through your regular browser or phone after it has been set up in AdsPower, as this can compromise your account’s isolation. If you need to access your Reddit account on a mobile device, set up AdsPower on a laptop and use a mobile profile fingerprint with a mobile proxy.

    4. Use Strong, Unique Passwords

    Avoid reusing usernames and passwords. Reddit may not display this publicly, but they can detect reused credentials between accounts. Consider using a password manager to keep everything organized.

    5. Stick to Reddit's Content Rules

    No tool can shield you from bans due to spam, hate speech, harassment, or violations of subreddit rules. Even if your setup is undetectable, moderators can still manually report and ban accounts.

    Read subreddit rules. Don't try to game the system with low-effort content.
