Frequently asked
How accurate are TikTok Shop commission rates?
TikTok Shop has changed its published commission several times and rates vary by region and category. OmniProfit marks these rates as estimates — confirm yours in Seller Center and override the value.
Should creator commission be advertising or a fee?
It behaves like a performance fee on the item price, so it is modelled as an optional marketplace fee rather than advertising. You control the percentage.
