Your app is live, and you've already created a promotional video. Use that video
to run a TikTok ad. Ask Replit to create a campaign with a budget and schedule,
then report how it performs, all from a chat in Replit.

Replit connects to TikTok Ads through its MCP integration. You describe the
campaign; Replit uses the connection to work with your advertising account.

## Best for

* Builders promoting a newly published app.
* Small businesses sending TikTok visitors to a website or online store.
* Marketers who want to set up a campaign and check results without switching tools for every step.

## Connectors

<Connectors
  items={[
{
  id: "tiktok-ads",
  name: "TikTok Ads",
  why: "Create campaigns and read advertising performance through MCP",
},
]}
/>

## Before you start

Before you begin, you'll need:

* A published app and a TikTok Ads account with billing set up.
* A budget and an idea of when you'd like the campaign to run.
* A finished promotional video you have permission to use.

Replit will help you work out the campaign details. This guide focuses on website
visits; tracking purchases or sign-ups requires additional setup. Advertising
costs are separate from Replit usage.

## Prompt Replit

<AiPrompt>
  Help me promote \[App URL] on TikTok using this video: \[Video URL]. Ask me about
  my budget, campaign dates, and audience. Don't launch anything until I approve.
</AiPrompt>

## What to expect

<Steps>
  <Step title="Replit connects to TikTok Ads">
    If you haven't connected your account yet, Replit asks you to do so. Ask it
    to check the account's currency, time zone, and billing readiness.
  </Step>

  <Step title="It asks a few questions">
    Tell Replit how much you want to spend, when the campaign should run, and
    who you want to reach. It clarifies whether your budget is total or daily.
  </Step>

  <Step title="It prepares the campaign for review">
    Replit asks for a video download link or helps select a video you've already
    uploaded to TikTok Ads Manager. It drafts the ad text and shows you the
    selected video, destination URL, audience, budget, and schedule for review.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You approve the campaign">
    Once you're happy with the plan, ask Replit to create and schedule it.
    Ask for the campaign ID and check its status in TikTok Ads Manager.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Ask how it's doing">
    Return to the chat and ask how much you've spent, how many impressions
    your ad received, and how many people clicked through to your site.
  </Step>
</Steps>

After you approve it, you have a TikTok campaign built around your existing
video. TikTok's ad review and delivery status determine when it starts running.

## Make it work for you

<AiPrompt>
  Keep the same video. Draft two versions of the ad text and recommend one for
  \[audience]. Don't upload anything or create the campaign until I approve.
</AiPrompt>

<AiPrompt>
  How has my campaign \[campaign ID] performed over the last 30 days?
  Show spend, impressions, website clicks, and cost per website
  click where available. Suggest a next step, but don't change the campaign.
</AiPrompt>

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="The budget or billing check blocks setup">
    Ask Replit to check TikTok's minimum budget. If your balance is empty, check
    billing in Ads Manager. Approve any budget changes before proceeding.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="TikTok reports a pending contract or account setup">
    Complete account setup and billing in TikTok Ads Manager or Business Center,
    then ask Replit to check again.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Replit can't access the video">
    Share a direct download link that needs no sign-in, or upload the video to
    TikTok Ads Manager and give Replit its asset name or ID.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The campaign exists, but there are no results yet">
    Check campaign status, start date, and billing in Ads Manager. Compare reports
    using matching dates and time zones. Clicks don't confirm conversions.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
