Hey creators: TikTok will give you $300 to get your friends to join

TikTok is doling out cold, hard cash as part of an effort to build up its creator base.
The popular video app appears to have established several referral programs that reward users who invite their friends to open their own TikTok accounts. One set of incentives, as discussed in a report published by The Information, revolves around TikTok Shop. Other creators have been promised credit on TikTok’s Promote hub or Amazon if they bring other creators onto the app.
Evidence of that referral system comes from creator economy expert Lia Haberman, who posted a TikTok screenshot on Threads. The image shows two reward options — either a $300 Promote credit or a $100 Amazon gift card — for users who successfully bring their buddies into the 1 Minute+ Growth Program.
TikTok isn’t dishing out these rewards for any old referrals. To get credit, referrers must onboard a creator with at least 10,000 YouTube subscribers or 100,000 Instagram followers.
