Financial Services

Last updated: March 2025

Principle

At TikTok, our aim is to provide our users with the necessary details to allow them to make well-informed financial choices. Our policies prioritize equipping users with the information they need to evaluate financial products and services, while also protecting them from any deceptive or harmful practices.


Policy

This policy requires enhanced transparency from you, as an advertiser, that promotes financial products and services, such as banking, insurance, trusts, securities, and leases that deal with financial commodities, financing, payments, investments, information exchange, or debt relief.


Generally, the following requirements must be met, but may depend on your delivery market (see the Market-specific requirements section for additional guidance):

  • Comply with relevant local laws and regulations

  • Be licensed by local and regional authorities

  • Include proper disclaimers where applicable

  • The ad must be restricted to audiences aged 18 years and older


Examples of what is not allowed:

  • Get-rich-quick offers

  • Pyramid schemes

  • Too-good-to-be-true financial offers
