The TikTok Pixel is a piece of code that you can place on your website that allows advertisers to share website visitor events with TikTok via browser. The pixel might be right for you if you're looking for a solution that's already prebuilt and is easy to set up and maintain.
How it works
The pixel collects information available via standard web browsers, like Chrome.
Ad/Event information: Information about the ad a TikTok user has clicked or an event that was triggered.
Timestamp: Time that the pixel event fired. This is used to determine when website actions took place, like when a page was viewed, when a product was purchased, etc.
IP Address: Used to determine the geographic location of an event.
User Agent: Used to determine the device make, model, operating system and browser information.
Cookies: First-party cookies are optional but third-party cookies are on by default with the TikTok Pixel. Cookies help the measurement, optimization, and targeting of your campaigns. Performance is boosted when first- and third-party cookies are paired with Advanced Matching. See Using Cookies with TikTok Pixel to learn more.
For more information about data collection policies, refer to TikTok Business Products (Data) Terms and TikTok Privacy Policy.

Create a Pixel: Create a new pixel in one click by connecting your website with one of our partners or by manual installation.
Create Events: Select from a list of standard events that best align with your business goal and define how they are tracked.
Add/Edit Events: Make changes to your Pixel as your website grows and changes by editing existing events or adding new ones.
Monitor and Diagnose: Check Pixel setup, monitor and test Events in real-time, or troubleshoot common issues with error messages and suggestions on how to fix them.
