Brands large and small are finding new and unique ways to engage with the TikTok community, and we've seen time and time again that our users enjoy engaging with the brands they love. Today, we're excited to extend our capabilities for marketers to express themselves creatively and connect with the TikTok community with the official introduction of the TikTok For Business Marketing Partner Program. 

We’re proud to launch our Marketing Partner Program today with nearly 20 certified partners across various areas of expertise including campaign management, creative development, branded effects, and measurement.

In recent months, we launched the TikTok For Business platform to give brands and marketers the tools to be creative storytellers and meaningfully engage with the TikTok community. We also launched new self-serve advertising solutions to support advertisers of all sizes and budgets and help them achieve their business goals. Building on these solutions, brands and marketers can now tap into our trusted ecosystem of partners including agencies and technology providers who can help them build successful campaigns and take advertising on TikTok to the next level. 

“With the launch of TikTok For Business, we’re building new opportunities for marketers to be creative storytellers and meaningfully engage with the TikTok community,” said Melissa Yang, Head of Ecosystem Partnerships, TikTok. “We're thrilled to collaborate with some of the most strategic and trusted leaders in the advertising industry and continue giving marketers access to more tools to successfully create, measure and optimize ad campaigns on TikTok.
