How To Monetize TikTok Account - Step by Step
Introduction
Monetizing your TikTok account can be a great way to turn your passion for creating videos into a source of income. In this article, I'll guide you through the step-by-step process to set up your TikTok for monetization.
Step 1: Open TikTok and Access Your Profile
- Open the TikTok application on your device.
- Tap on your profile picture located in the bottom right corner of the screen.
Step 2: Access Settings
- Tap on the three horizontal lines (also known as the "hamburger menu") in the top right corner.
- From the dropdown options, select Settings and Privacy at the very top.
Step 3: Switch to a Business Account
- Tap on Account in the settings menu.
- You will see the option to Switch to personal account or Switch to business account.
- Since I already have a business account, follow the prompts to switch to a business account. This selection grants you more features for monetization and access to analytics and insights.
Step 4: Access Creator Tools
After switching to a business account:
- Go back to your profile page.
- Tap on the three horizontal lines again.
- This time, find and tap on Creator Tools or TikTok Studio.
- In this menu, you'll see options for Analytics and below that, you will find Monetization.
Step 5: Explore Monetization Options
Tap on View All next to the monetization option.
Here you can see various programs available to you, based on your eligibility. Options include:
- Subscriptions
- Rewards program
- Video gifts
- Marketplace opportunities
Keep in mind that to turn on monetization, generally, you need at least 10,000 followers. Currently, my eligibility indicates I don’t meet that requirement yet.
Step 6: Withdraw Earnings
- In the top left corner, you will see a balance indicating the amount you have received from monetization. As you reach the threshold required, you can withdraw funds to your bank account.
That’s pretty much it! Following these steps can help set you on the path to successfully monetizing your TikTok account. If you found this video (and article) helpful, feel free to like and subscribe for more content!
