TikTok Shop lets brands and creators showcase and sell their products directly on TikTok, using a seamless in-app shopping experience in real time.
As one of the top marketplaces in Southeast Asia, TikTok Shop empowers creators to connect with customers through engaging and shoppable content.
TikTok Shop invites customers to experience the joy of discovering and purchasing new products, ranging from fashion & beauty to gadgets and home decor, without leaving the app.
What is the TikTok Shop affiliate program?
TikTok Shop affiliates across Southeast Asia will now be able to promote TikTok Shop on a cost-per-sale basis, earning a 1.4% commission flat rate without being capped across all products for every successful sale referred through Involve Asia’s affiliate network.
The sales amount for each order excludes discounts, shipping fees and taxes.
Promoting through TikTok Shop’s Flash Sale, where you will find a wide range of products at affordable prices with discounts for a limited time only, can earn you more commissions.
