What is TikTok Series?

Series on TikTok is a collection of premium content available exclusively to paying viewers. Through Series, creators can cover expansive topics, offer full courses/tutorials, or specialized content in a collection of 30-second to 20-minute videos. Viewers can purchase access to a Series via direct-in-video links or from the creator’s profile. 

If you’re eligible to join the Series, go to your Profile and tap the three-line icon/Menu at the top right. Select TikTok Studio, tap Series, and sign up. 

If you’re on a desktop computer, go to www.tiktok.com/series, log into your account, and follow the sign-up instructions. 

TikTok Series Requirements

You must meet the following requirements to be eligible to join the Series:

• You must be at least 18 years old (19 in South Korea).
• Your account must be at least 30 days old. 
• You must have at least 10,000 followers.
• You must have published at least three public videos in the last 30 days. 
• Your videos must have generated at least 1,000 views in the last 30 days.
• You must have a public Personal or Business Account; political and private accounts are not eligible. 
• You must share original, high-quality content. 
• Your account must be in good standing and must have no repeated Community Guidelines violations. 

If you have fewer than 10,000 followers but meet all other eligibility requirements, you may still submit an application. However, you must provide a link to original, premium content you’ve previously sold on other platforms. 

How Often Should You Post on a Series for TikTok for Optimal Results?

Check your TikTok Analytics to find out how many times a day and how many days a week your fans use TikTok. You should also identify the optimal posting times to reach your target audience.

You can follow the same formula popular streaming networks use and post one to two videos a week per Series collection. Schedule content posting on the same days each week and at the same times. You may also complete all the videos in a Series and make the entire collection available in a single day. 

Keep monitoring your TikTok Analytics and find out which posting schedules and frequencies deliver high viewership and maximum engagement.

Take note of the following:

• You can upload up to 80 videos per Series. 
• Each video can be between 30 seconds and 20 minutes long and up to 4GB. 
• TikTok recommends using MP4 format for Series videos, but all formats are acceptable. 
• You can use either vertical or horizontal format for your videos.
