Get Your Business On TikTok Shop

TikTok Shop is changing the way people discover and buy products—blending entertainment with e-commerce in a way we’ve never seen before. If you’re a product-based business, getting your brand on TikTok Shop could mean reaching thousands (or even millions) of new customers.

The good news? It’s easier than you think to get started.

Here’s exactly how to set up TikTok Shop for your business—and some tips to make it work for you.

Step 1: Check You’re Eligible

To sell on TikTok Shop in the UK or US, you need:

  • A registered business (or be a sole trader)

  • Valid ID and business documents (e.g. passport, company number)

  • A product to sell (physical goods only—no digital products or services)

  • A UK/US bank account for payouts

📍 Check TikTok Shop Seller Center for the latest country availability and criteria.

Step 2: Register for a TikTok Shop Seller Account

  1. Go to TikTok Shop Seller Center

  2. Choose “Sign Up” and register with your business email

  3. Select your business type: Individual or Company

  4. Upload the required documents

  5. Link your bank account

  6. Set up your shop name, logo, and profile

📌 Pro tip: Choose a shop name that matches your TikTok account for brand consistency.

Step 3: Add Your Products

Once your shop is verified, you can start uploading your products:

  • Add clear product titles and descriptions

  • Use high-quality images (and video if possible)

  • Set your pricing and shipping info

  • Include keywords people might search for

📌 TikTok favours engaging content—so product videos can perform better than plain listings.

Step 4: Link Your TikTok Account

Connect your TikTok profile to your Shop so you can:

  • Tag products in your videos

  • Go live with product features

  • Run in-feed ads that drive direct sales

To link:

  1. Go to “Account Settings” in Seller Center

  2. Click “Link TikTok Account”

  3. Approve the connection

Step 5: Create Content That Sells (Without Feeling Like a Sales Pitch)

This is where TikTok Shop really shines. Use content that:

  • Shows the product in action

  • Solves a problem or answers a common question

  • Feels native to the platform (think trends, storytelling, humour, behind-the-scenes)

📌 The goal isn’t just to show your product—it’s to make people want it.

Step 6: Track Performance & Optimise

TikTok Shop gives you access to:

  • Sales data

  • Click-through rates

  • Conversion rates

  • Product and creator performance

Use these insights to tweak your listings, content style, and strategy over time.
