Step-by-Step Guide to Connect TikTok Pixel to Shopify

Step 1: Log into Your Shopify Store

Begin by logging into your Shopify store. Make sure you have administrative access to install applications and modify settings.

Step 2: Access the Shopify App Store

Once logged in, navigate to the bottom left corner of the dashboard and click on Settings. Next, select Apps and sales channels, then click on Shopify App Store located at the top right of the page.

Step 3: Search for the TikTok App

In the Shopify App Store search bar, type in TikTok. This will redirect you to the TikTok app that you need to download for integration.

Step 4: Download the TikTok App

Click on the TikTok app in the search results. Be aware that some users may encounter compatibility issues if TikTok is not supported in their country. For instance, if you are using a store in a region where TikTok integration isn't available, you may receive a message stating that the app isn't compatible.

Step 5: Change Your Store's Country (If Necessary)

To resolve compatibility issues, you may need to change your store’s country to one where TikTok is supported, such as the United States. To do this, go back to Settings, click General, and modify the Country setting to the United States.

After changing the country, return to the Shopify App Store and search for TikTok again to download and install the application.

Step 6: Install the TikTok App

Once you've found the TikTok app, click on Install and proceed with the installation process. Follow any prompts that appear.

Step 7: Connect to TikTok for Business

After installation, you will need to connect your TikTok account. If you have not created a TikTok for Business account yet, search for "TikTok for Business" on Google and sign up. You can create an account using your email address or through your Google account.

Step 8: Complete the Connection

Once you are logged into your TikTok for Business account, you should see options to connect. Proceed to connect to TikTok Business Center and TikTok Ads Manager as prompted.

If prompted, set up your data sharing preferences. Ensure you input your company information correctly. After completing the necessary details, click on Finish setup.

Note for International Users

For those who reside outside the supported regions, it may be necessary to provide a U.S. address. Remember to revert your store's country setting back to your original location after successful installation and connection.

By following these steps, you can effectively set up your TikTok Pixel within Shopify, allowing you to utilize TikTok’s advertising tools to reach a wider audience.
