How to set up automatic payment

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. Learn more about automatic payment.

Before you begin

To use automatic payment, you must have a valid payment method. Learn more about Supported Payment Methods for TikTok ads. Without a valid payment method, your ad delivery may be interrupted.

Note: You can't use a prepaid card for automatic payment.

When you add a payment method, it will automatically go through verification to ensure the card is valid. We will deduct at least $10, or the equivalent in local currency, from your card and refund this charge within 15 days.

How to set up automatic payment

For customers with a dedicated TikTok representative, you may discuss selecting the automatic payment option with your representative.

1. Log into TikTok Ads Manager.

2. Hover over the Tools tab at the top, find Settings and click Account setup.

3. Use one of the following to select a payment type or see your selected payment type:

   • Navigate to the Basic information page within the My account module on the left (also called the Account setup module)

   • Navigate to the Summary page within the Payment module on the left.
