Before getting started: The following feature is currently only available for agency clients. If you are not an agency, refer to the regular Business Center articles. Additionally, you can only start creating new ad accounts once your Agency Business Center has been created and approved. Learn more on how to create an Agency Business Center.
Once you have created an Agency Business Center, the next step is to manage and create your assets, like ad accounts and audiences. This is an important step because you can not start assigning your team different ad accounts until you've added your assets to your TikTok Business Center account.
Note: Only the Admin in Business Center can add or create Ad Accounts.

The Audience is the users in our apps who may see the ads. It's provided by the advertiser or collected during the previous ads delivery, and it's an important part of the advertiser's data as it greatly influences the effect of ads. Audience differs when using different methods to create the custom Audience.
Sharing a Custom Audience or a Lookalike Audience between different ad accounts can help advertisers conveniently and efficiently utilize audience data to fulfill their marketing needs.
You have a Business Center.
If not, sign up for one.
Make sure the share ad account and receive ad account are within the same Business Center.
Only ad accounts owned by a BC can share Audience with other accounts within this BC.
You have to be the owner, admin, or operator of the shared ad account.
The receive account must be within the same Business Center as the share account.
Business Center enables you to view the shared audience history directly.
