About automatic payment

Last updated: September 2024

When you create your TikTok Ads Manager account, you must select a billing option. Your account's billing option will determine how and when we charge your account. With automatic payment, TikTok will automatically bill your ad delivery charges to your account when you reach your account's billing threshold or bill date - whatever comes first. For ad accounts owned by Business Center, clients can only add a payment method for automatic payment in Business Center.


Note: Even if you have automatic payment set up, you may need to make manual payments in some situations, such as when your payment method fails. If you need further help with payment-related issues, contact customer support.


TikTok Ads Manager supports weekly and monthly billing. Your account's bill date will be based on your registration time and historical spending on the platform.
