The short answerIn Seller Center on desktop, go to Marketing > Promotions and create a Creator LIVE Flash Deal for the creators you choose (up to 50 per deal). The flash price has to be your lowest price from the last 14 days. Once it's assigned, each creator sets up and starts the flash sale from LIVE Manager during their LIVE.
Before you start
- You need an active affiliate collaboration with the creator.
- The creator has to add the product to their LIVE shopping bag for the deal to show up.
- Creator flash deals are set up in Seller Center on desktop.
Set it up
- In Seller Center, go to Marketing > Promotions and choose Creator LIVE deal.
- Choose Creator Flash Sale, then pick the creators by ID or name.
- Select products by size or color and set the flash price. It must be at or below your lowest product discount price from the last 14 days and your lowest campaign price from the last 24 hours. If the product has no order history, it only needs to be below the original price.
- Set the stock. The creator's reserved stock is locked during the flash sale.
- Set the promotion window. It must run longer than 10 minutes and less than 14 days.
- Tell your creators the deal is assigned. TikTok doesn't notify them.
Good to know
- If a product has both a LIVE Flash Sale and a Group Deal or Price Cut, the flash sale won't appear in the LIVE shopping bag.
- Creator exclusive price is a softer option: a LIVE-only discount of 5% or more, with no locked stock.
- Co-funded flash sales: TikTok sometimes co-funds flash sales for eligible shops. Ask your TikTok Shop Partner or account manager.
FAQ
