How to get a boost code on TikTok


If you’re planning to promote your content or shop on TikTok, you may have heard about TikTok boost codes. These promotional codes can provide discounts or credits toward TikTok’s paid promotion features, helping creators and businesses advertise their videos at a lower cost.

However, boost codes aren’t available to everyone, and TikTok doesn’t offer a permanent page where anyone can claim them. In this guide, you’ll learn what TikTok boost codes are, where to find them, and how to redeem them.

What Is a TikTok Boost Code?

A TikTok boost code is a promotional code that offers a discount or advertising credit for eligible TikTok services, such as:

  • Promoting videos with the Promote feature
  • TikTok Shop promotions (where available)
  • Advertising campaigns for eligible business accounts

Boost codes are typically available for a limited time and may have eligibility requirements.

Why Isn’t My Boost Code Working?

Several reasons may prevent a code from being accepted.

The Code Has Expired

Many promotional codes are only valid for a limited period.

You’re Not Eligible

Some offers are restricted to:

  • New users
  • New advertisers
  • Specific countries
  • Selected accounts

Incorrect Entry

Double-check the spelling, numbers, and capitalization when entering the code.

Regional Restrictions

Some TikTok promotions are only available in certain countries or regions.

Can You Get Free Boost Codes?

Sometimes.

TikTok occasionally provides free promotional credits during marketing campaigns, but there is no guaranteed way to receive a free boost code.

Be cautious of websites or social media posts claiming to offer unlimited or “generator” boost codes, as these are often scams.
