FAQ

What is product seeding for TikTok Shop creators?

Product seeding means sending a creator a sample so they can try the product before deciding whether to create TikTok Shop content, join an affiliate campaign, or discuss paid usage.

Should product seeding require a post?

If posting is required, say so clearly and treat it as a collaboration agreement. If the sample is no-pressure, do not imply that the creator must post after receiving it.

Should I include shipping details in a seeding message?

Yes. Creators often need to know whether shipping is covered, where the product can be shipped, and whether tracking information will be provided.

Can product seeding lead to affiliate content?

Yes, but it should be framed as a next step after the creator reviews the product and decides whether it is a fit for their audience.
