## In short

On TikTok, SaTT reads views, likes, comments, shares and saves through its metrics provider, currently with a limited daily quota during the alpha. Link your account with TikTok sign-in (limited to test accounts during the alpha) or a bio code, publish a public video that follows the brief, and submit its link.

## How do you link your TikTok account?

Two ways make TikTok a [verified account](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#verified-account):

- **TikTok sign-in** (“Continue with TikTok”). During the alpha the TikTok app is in sandbox mode, so it only works for test accounts.
- **A [bio code](gl:bio-code)**: paste the one-time code into your TikTok bio; SaTT re-reads your public profile. This works for everyone.

## What does SaTT measure on TikTok?

| Metric | Measured? |
| --- | --- |
| Views | Yes (limited quota) |
| Likes | Yes (limited quota) |
| Comments | Yes (limited quota) |
| Shares | Yes (limited quota) |
| Saves | Yes (limited quota) |
| Followers (audience tier) | Yes (limited quota) |

“Limited” means the metrics provider runs on a small daily quota during the alpha; the app shows a “Limited” badge. See [network capabilities](https://satt.com/guides/features/network-capabilities).

## What works for sponsored TikTok videos?

Common practices, to test with your own audience:

- **Hook in the first seconds**: show the result or the problem before explaining.
- **Film it like your other videos.** Native, vertical, your usual tone.
- **Use the brief’s hashtags** in the caption, plus the link instruction (often “link in bio”).
- **Turn on TikTok’s paid-partnership label** when the content is sponsored. See [disclosure](https://satt.com/guides/tips/disclosure-ad-labels).
- **Keep the video public** until the pool ends.

> **Tip:** Short-form clips of long videos are a campaign type of their own: see [clipping](https://satt.com/guides/features/clipping).

## When do you get paid?

After you submit the link, the [oracle](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#oracle) measures the video. Payment starts 48 hours after the first measurement ([maturation](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#maturation)). In performance pools you can claim again as the video grows, at most once every 24 hours in the crypto edition.

## Key takeaways

- Link TikTok with a bio code; TikTok sign-in only works for test accounts during the alpha.
- SaTT reads TikTok views, likes, comments, shares and saves, on a limited quota.
- Hook early, film natively, add the brief’s hashtags and the paid-partnership label.
- Keep the video public until the pool ends.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why can’t I sign in with TikTok?

During the alpha the TikTok app is in sandbox mode and only accepts test accounts. Use a bio code instead to verify your account.

### Do TikTok shares and saves earn money?

Shares can, when the pool sets a price per share for TikTok. Saves are measured but SaTT pools price views, likes and shares only.

### What if my numbers are not updated?

Measurements depend on the provider’s daily quota during the alpha. Try again later; a post that cannot be read is never paid on a guessed number.
