How to do TikTok Shop Affiliate WITHOUT 5,000 Followers

Introduction

If you want to start doing TikTok Shop but don't have 5,000 followers, I've got you covered. In this article, I'm going to show you a method to start with any account, even if it has zero followers.

Step-by-Step Guide

First, head over to the website called TikTok Shop Seller Center. This is the site for actual sellers on TikTok Shop, but we can use it to set up a loophole. Go ahead and sign up with any email you prefer.

2. Select Business Type

After signing up for an account, you'll need to select a business type. Just click on 'Individual' unless you own an LLC.

3. Add Your ID

Next, you have to go ahead and add your ID. Once you've uploaded that, enter all your other information and click 'Next.'

4. Fill Out Shop Information

Now, fill out the shop information. It doesn't really matter because we're only creating the seller account to set up our TikTok Shop account profile.

5. Verification Process

After completing the above steps, TikTok will need to verify your info. This process can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours. In this scenario, the verification took about 8 hours.

6. Complete Additional Steps

Once verified, continue to fill out all remaining steps. When it comes to adding a product, insert a fake one and price it very high.

7. Connect Your Account

After that, you'll get a 'Connect' button to link your account. You'll need to scan a QR code and do an identity verification, but once that’s done, your account should be all good to go.
