What is the TikTok Creativity Program?
The Creator Fund is basically something like YouTube, where they reward you for getting views on their platform. On TikTok, you can get paid around $1 for each 1,000 views you get.
Now you might be asking, "Where's the catch?" Good question. This is actually where most people stop and give up.
Requirements to Join the TikTok Creativity Program
You must be at least 18 years old.
You must be from one of the eligible countries.
You need 10,000 followers and 100,000 views.
On TikTok, that's super easy to get!
Steps to Join the TikTok Creativity Program
Part 1: Creating an Account
To join the program, there are two main parts:
Creating an account that has the TikTok Creativity Program available.
Getting accepted into the program and providing identification or tax information to withdraw money.
Don't worry; I have three solutions for this, so you'll be covered no matter where you're from.
Method 1: Creating an Account From Your Phone
Turn on the VPN on your phone.
Log in with your username and password.
Click the three dots in the top-right corner.
Go to "Creator Tools" and check for the Creativity Program Beta under "Monetization."
Ensure you meet the 10,000 followers and 100,000 views requirements.
Method 2: Creating an Account From Your Computer
Open your browser (e.g., Google Chrome) and click "Add" to create a new profile.
Install a free VPN extension like Urban VPN.
Set the VPN to the United States.
Go to TikTok and sign up with your email.
Verify your email to start using the account.
Verifying Your Account
To verify your account:
Provide an ID or passport (must be 18+).
If you're not 18, use the ID of a trusted adult.
Providing Tax Information
Option 1: Using a Social Security Number (SSN)
Find someone you trust who can provide their SSN or Tax ID.
This option can be challenging if you don’t know anyone in the US.
Option 2: Registering a US-Based LLC
Set up an LLC (costs around $100-$200).
Use this LLC information for tax purposes.
Alternative: Use a Non-US Account
Create an account in a European country (e.g., UK, France).
Benefit: You won’t need to provide US tax information.
Con: Initially, your TikToks may not reach the US audience.
Linking Your Payout Method
Add your PayPal account (works from any country).
TikTok accepts it without issues.
Final Tips
Add “United States” to the location of your TikToks to reach a broader audience.
Grow your account over time; eventually, your content will spread globally.
