TikTok Application Country Targeting Q/A - TikTok Ads
Introduction
In recent discussions surrounding TikTok's advertising capabilities and account management, several important factors have been highlighted regarding country targeting for ads, especially when it comes to using a Pakistani IP or running campaigns targeting the UK or other countries. Below, we'll discuss the key points of this subject to help clarify the process and limitations involved.
Understanding TikTok Ads from Different Regions
If you have a UK TikTok account where you regularly upload videos, you may notice that while you can see promotions and campaigns for your videos, there may be certain limitations regarding the countries where your ads are shown. TikTok requires that the account used for promotion matches the location where the ads will be displayed. If you are attempting to run ads from Pakistan, the platform may only run those ads in the designated country of the account, in this case, the UK.
Promoting Your Content
When you access the promotion features of your UK TikTok account, you're likely to find age demographics and interests about your potential audience. However, it’s important to ensure that the financial aspects are also aligned with the currency relevant to the country of your TikTok account.
For instance, if your account is configured in pounds, you'll likely see that ad expenditure is calculated in pounds, which may range from three pounds or more per ad campaign. Therefore, when associating a bank account for transactions, you should ensure this account can handle transactions in pounds, providing you easy payment flexibility.
Running Ads While Using a Pakistani IP
A frequently asked question among users is whether they can run ads from a Pakistani IP as they did previously. Unfortunately, if you are outside the country associated with your TikTok account, the platform tends to restrict ad activity, preventing the possibility of simply creating a new TikTok account without regard to geographical limitations.
