How to Setup Static IP for the TikTok Creator Rewards Program (Nord VPN)

Introduction

In our recent video, we discussed a common reason many users get disqualified from the TikTok Creator Rewards program—previously known as the TikTok Creativity Program Beta. A significant factor contributing to disqualification is the use of free VPNs or even some paid VPNs with dynamic IP addresses. These dynamic IPs constantly change, making it difficult for TikTok to verify your account.

To resolve this issue, using a static proxy or a dedicated IP is essential. I recommend NordVPN, which I have been using for some time without facing disqualification from TikTok’s programs. To demonstrate its effectiveness, I used a static IP address on an old account with a low revenue per mille (RPM) and managed to generate around $ 11 in just seven days.

While I cannot guarantee 100% success, I will provide a link to NordVPN in the description of this article, where you may find a coupon to reduce the purchasing price. Remember to subscribe to my channel and like the video as we dive into the steps to set up a dedicated IP using your mobile phone.

Steps to Purchase a Dedicated IP

  1. Log Into Your NordVPN Account: Start by logging into your NordVPN account.
  2. Select Dedicated IP: Look for the dedicated IP option in the list of additional features.
  3. Choose Your Location: Select the country or region you want to use for your dedicated IP. For instance, I chose Los Angeles, United States.
  4. Setup Your Dedicated IP: Click on "Set Up Dedicated IP" after selecting your desired location. If you have already purchased one, you can set it up directly.

In my case, my dedicated IP address will renew on June 25, 2026. It’s vital to select your dedicated IP location cautiously, as you will be using it for an extended period. For example, I opted for Los Angeles, then proceeded to set it up.

Setting It Up on Your Smartphone

  1. Log Out of TikTok: If you already have the TikTok app, log out and delete it from your device.
  2. Adjust Phone Settings:
    • Go to Settings > General.
    • Ensure your language is set to English and your region is set to United States.
    • Disable Location Services.
    • Set your time zone to the location where you purchased your dedicated IP—Los Angeles in my case.
  3. Launch NordVPN: Open the NordVPN application to set up your dedicated IP.
  4. Protocol Selection:
    • Access your profile, then go to Settings.
    • Change the protocol to OpenVPN UDP or TCP for the dedicated IP to work effectively.
  5. Connect to the VPN:
    • Search for the server name provided with your dedicated IP.
    • For example, search for "United States number 10477" within your NordVPN application.
    • Once you find the server, connect to it.

After connecting, your VPN will be dedicated solely to your device, and you will not share it with anyone else. Now you can check your IP score to verify your new IP address; it should now reflect your location in California, United States.

In conclusion, this is how you can purchase and set up a dedicated VPN to ensure compliance with TikTok's Creator Rewards program.
