TikTok Provides Complimentary Shop Credits for Referring New Members


You may have the opportunity to reap rewards (in a way) just by engaging with TikTok — an activity you may already be doing frequently.

As per a report from *Bloomberg*, TikTok has launched several promotional initiatives aimed at enhancing user interaction and time spent on the platform. These promotions consist of TikTok Shop credits, which can be accumulated in various manners. For example, you can earn $50 in Shop credits for referring a first-time user and up to $350 in bonuses for bringing in more new users. Reports also suggest that TikTok is providing credits for daily app log-ins over a week and for checking out 10 TikTok Shop items five times a week. Furthermore, users can accumulate up to $80 in credits just by making a purchase via TikTok Shop.

The timing of these promotions is significant. TikTok is at a pivotal juncture, as its parent company, ByteDance, has until January 19 to find a buyer or face the risk of being banned in the U.S. This push to draw in more users and enhance engagement could be part of a plan to solidify its presence in the U.S. market as the deadline approaches.

For additional context, Mashable’s Christianna Silva has provided a detailed account of the latest updates regarding the potential TikTok ban. In the meantime, a legal dispute over the app’s future in the U.S. continues. By onboarding more American users and boosting TikTok Shop sales, the platform may be striving to garner public backing and showcase its worth to U.S. consumers.

While TikTok’s future in the U.S. is still up in the air, these promotions present an opportunity to snag some rewards in the interim. According to *Bloomberg*, users have mentioned spotting these offers on their For You Page, so stay vigilant if you’re keen on redeeming them.
