If you use the Platform for purposes within your trade, business, craft or profession, the Business Terms also apply to your participation in Creativity Program Beta.

Creativity Program Beta is available only in selected countries, whether you are entitled to participate will depend on your country of residence. For this purpose, data will be processed in accordance with the Platform Privacy Policy.

What can I get if I shift to Creativity Program Beta?

Creativity Program Beta is a Program through which you can collect Rewards from TikTok, in addition to rewards you may collect from time to time through other features.

Rewards are calculated dynamically based on the country of the video views origin, the number of video views, video engagement and authenticity of a video view.

Participant's legitimate, unique video views on qualifying videos are determined by TikTok and exclude video views that we determine:

For the avoidance of doubt, not all content you post to participate in the Creativity Program Beta will collect Rewards.

Reward Payments under the Creativity Program Beta will be free of charge.

No payments are due to participants for use of their content, in accordance with the Terms of Service.

What videos can collect Rewards?

Creativity Program Beta rewards content that meets all these criteria:

  • It must be one minute or longer;
  • It must reach at least 1,000 qualified views*;
  • It is not a Duet or Stitch video;
  • It is not a Photo Mode video;
  • It is not an advertisement, paid promotion, or sponsored content;
  • It is original content and produced entirely by the creator and/or adds new ideas to preexisting content;
  • It is high quality as determined by TikTok in its sole discretion; and
  • It does not violate these Creativity Program Beta Terms, the Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, Copyright Policy and any other Platform terms and policies which may apply.  *Qualified views are those that a user views for five seconds or more, are not marked by the viewer as "not interested" and it would not be otherwise reasonable or fair to consider as qualified (the views generated from the same user account will be counted as one view).

How will I know if I have collected something?

You can check how many Rewards you have collected in the last 30 days by accessing your account balance through Profile > Settings and privacy > Balance > Income+.

The Program page will be updated daily.

Can I lose access to Creativity Program Beta?

In addition to the reasons set out in the Rewards Policy, we may temporarily or permanently suspend or terminate your access to this Program or access to Rewards that you have collected through this Program if:

  • you become involved in any situation or occurrence which reflects unfavourably upon you or TikTok (including the Platform or the Program); or
