How to create an Instant Page

Last updated: September 2024

TikTok Instant page is a mobile web page created in TikTok. Within an Instant page, people can watch engaging videos and photos, swipe through carousels, and click on buttons to view another location.


You can customize your own instant pages by editing the picture, video, carousels and button components.

Before you begin

You can access the instant page builder at the ad level or an ad group that belongs to a campaign using the Traffic, Website Conversions, Reach or Video Views objective. Instant pages are not available for:

  • App install or lead generation advertising objectives in a campaign.

  • App promotion types in ad groups.

  • Within Newsfeed App Series manual placements in ad groups.

You can navigate there by:

  • Creating a new campaign, ad group (with website conversion as the promotion type), selecting instant page (with a button click as the optimization event), choosing TikTok as the placement (by manual selection or automatic), and accessing the instant page builder at the ad level.

  • Selecting an existing campaign, creating a new ad group that includes an instant page (with a button click as the optimization event), choosing TikTok as the placement (by manual selection or automatic), and accessing the instant page builder at the ad level.
