How I got APPROVED for the TikTok Creator Fund (100% Effective)
If you're aiming to get approved for the TikTok Creator Fund, this article is tailored for you. I recently got approved and wanted to share the steps I took to achieve it after several attempts. Let’s dive right in!
Eligibility Criteria
To get started, you need to meet a few basic requirements:
- Age: You must be over 18.
- Followers: Have at least 10,000 followers.
- Views: Accumulate 100,000 views on TikTok within the last 30 days.
Once you meet these criteria, TikTok will offer you the option to apply for the Creator Fund. But what if the option doesn't appear? Let’s take a closer look through my story for a possible solution.
My Journey: Steps to Approval
Initial Attempts and Region Restrictions
When I initially qualified for the Creator Fund, I was leaving Egypt. Despite satisfying all necessary conditions, the Creator Fund option did not appear. Upon contacting TikTok support, I found that the Creator Fund was not available in my region. As a traveling YouTuber and TikToker, finding a workaround became essential.
Step-by-Step Process
Initial Steps: I tried using a VPN to change my location to Los Angeles while I was in Turkey. Despite following these instructions meticulously (removing my SIM card and attempting to apply), it didn't work.
Alternative Solution: My friend, a comedian in Los Angeles, suggested another approach. Utilizing my ties to California, I asked my younger brother—who resides there—to log into my TikTok account and apply on my behalf.
Successful Application: After logging out on my end, my brother logged into the account stateside. He completed the application process, which included filling out general information such as age verification, email, and location. Additionally, he had to submit the front and back of my passport.
Dealing with Technical Errors
Upon submission, we encountered an error message—this is typical but indicates that you're on the right track. After waiting 24 hours, I received a notification that I was approved for the Creator Fund.
Conclusion
If you're a traveling TikToker struggling with location-based approval issues, this method may work for you too. Get somebody you trust in an eligible region to assist.
