Step 3. Create your Ads

Product selection options:

  1. All products mean that the system will automatically choose the most relevant product(s) from the shop to advertise to TikTok users.

  3. Click Submit.


Tips:

  • After ad delivery starts, any product that goes out of stock will automatically stop being advertised and will automatically resume advertising once back in stock.

  • Ads automatically use the latest PDP image and information, managed by TikTok Shop in the Seller Center.

  • Each Ad Group can only contain one Ad. To create multiple Ads, please create more Ad Groups.
