Can I mention my own product here?
Yes, as long as it is a genuine contribution and not advertising, because the “No spam” rule bans promotion of any kind.

Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- Respect others and be civil: No harassment, hate speech, or toxic behavior. Treat all contributors and members with kindness.
- No spam: Excessive promotion, spam, or advertising of any kind is not allowed.
Works well
- A walkthrough of a real finance workflow problem you solved, written as a story with no pitch attached.
- An honest question about how other teams handle spend management, asked because you actually want the answers.
- A comparison of approaches to expense tracking that talks about tradeoffs instead of naming a winner.
- A helpful, detailed answer to someone else's question, which builds standing before you ever start your own thread.
- A lesson learned post about finance operations that gives value first and mentions your product only if someone asks.
Avoid
- Posting your product link with a pitch, because that is advertising and the “No spam” rule bans it.
- Dropping the same promo message in many subreddits, since excessive promotion gets removed here.
- Writing a post that is mostly an ad with a thin question attached to make it look like discussion.
- Arguing with or talking down to members, because the “Respect others and be civil” rule covers harassment and toxic behavior.
- Treating the community as a free distribution channel instead of a place to take part.
- Assuming links are fine by default, since the rules do not say either way, so a link-heavy post is a gamble.
What r/RampPlatform Is For
r/RampPlatform is a subreddit dedicated to all things Ramp. Ramp is a finance and spend management platform, so the people here are users, potential users, and people who work with finance tools in their companies. They come to talk about the product, how it fits into their workflows, and the problems it solves. The community keeps its rules short and simple. There are only two of them, and both are about how you behave, not about what topic you post. That tells you the room is open to many kinds of discussion as long as you are civil and not selling.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
Two rules decide everything here. The first is “Respect others and be civil”, which bans harassment, hate speech, and toxic behavior, and asks everyone to treat contributors and members with kindness. The second is “No spam”, which says excessive promotion, spam, or advertising of any kind is not allowed. For a founder, the second rule is the one that will make or break your post. The word any is doing a lot of work in that rule, so a post that reads like an ad is at risk even if it is not aggressive about it. The moderators also state plainly that they remove posts that are uncivil, harassing, or contain spam and excessive promotion.
What To Post
A good post here is a genuine contribution to a conversation about Ramp or finance operations. Share a real experience, ask a real question, or walk through how you solved a problem, and keep any mention of your own product out of it or so light it is clearly not the point. Be kind in your post and in your comments, because civility is a written rule here, not just good manners. Since there are no observed top posts to learn from, play it safe and lead with usefulness. If you would feel awkward showing your post to a moderator, rewrite it until you would not.
What To Avoid
The clear way to get removed here is promotion. The “No spam” rule bans excessive promotion, spam, or advertising of any kind, so a post that exists to push your product is the main thing to avoid. That includes thinly disguised ads, repeated self promotion, and posts whose main purpose is a link or a pitch. The other way to get removed or banned is breaking the “Respect others and be civil” rule. Harassment, hate speech, toxic behavior, or being unkind to other members will get your post pulled. Since the moderators say they remove uncivil and spammy posts, a post can fail on either front.

Common questions about r/RampPlatform
Are links allowed?
The rules do not say links are banned, but they also do not say they are allowed, so treat any link as risky and only include one when it truly helps the discussion.
Can I announce my launch here?
No. The “No spam” rule bans advertising of any kind, and a launch post is advertising.
Can I ask people what they think of a tool?
Yes. Asking for opinions or experiences is fine and fits the community, as long as you stay civil.
What happens if I post something promotional anyway?
You risk removal under the “No spam” rule, and repeated promotion is exactly what that rule is written to stop.
