How do I grow and make money on TikTok?
Learn TikTok through questions about content ideas, short videos, audience growth, analytics, brand work, and monetization.
People searching this page want to know how to grow on TikTok and how to get paid. Growth is the videos you can keep making. The payout program is Creator Rewards, and it is not worldwide.
TikTok's Creator Academy says Creator Rewards is open in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, South Korea, France, Mexico, and Brazil. You must live there and use an account registered there. Pakistan and India are not on the list. The old Creator Fund is closed.
Where it is open, you need a personal account, to be 18 or older, at least 10,000 followers, and at least 100,000 video views in the last 30 days. A video that earns must be original, at least one minute long, and not a duet, a stitch, or an ad. A qualified view needs five seconds of watch time, and the viewer has to be in one of those eight countries.
If your country is not listed, do not buy a workaround. Use TikTok to show work people will pay you for directly. The full steps and the official sources are in the monetization guide.
