How to remove someone from TikTok Business Center
Revoke a person’s TikTok access cleanly: remove them from Business Center, double-check what they could still reach, and confirm nothing is left behind.
Removing a person from Business Center pulls their seat and the asset access that came with it — but it is worth a quick sweep afterwards, because someone may also hold access elsewhere: directly on an ad account, on a TikTok Shop in Seller Center, or through a Spark Ads code they were given. Removing them from one place does not touch the others.
If your situation is actually …
- The person is leaving the team entirely → Offboard a team member from TikTok →
- You only want to remove ad account access → Remove ad account access →
Before you start
You are an Admin
Only an Admin can remove people from the Business Center.
You know everywhere the person had access
Business Center seat, individual ad accounts, Shop staff, and any Spark Ads codes are separate places to check.
Remove a person and confirm it stuck
Open Users and find the person
Go to the Users area and locate the person you want to remove.
Where: business-center.tiktok.com → Users
Remove them from the Business Center
Use the option to remove the member. This ends their seat and the asset access tied to it.
Where: business-center.tiktok.com → Users → remove member
Confirm: They no longer appear in the Users list.
Check the assets they held
Open the accounts and ad accounts they were assigned and confirm their name is gone from each.
Where: business-center.tiktok.com → Assets
Sweep the places Business Center does not cover
Check TikTok Shop Seller Center staff, any direct ad-account members, and active Spark Ads codes the person may have been given.
Where this goes wrong
Assuming one removal covers everything
A person can hold access in Seller Center or directly on an ad account that Business Center removal does not touch.
Why it happens: Access lives in several systems that look like one.
Already happened: Offboard a team member

Access issues are easier to prevent when roles, owners, and responsibilities are recorded clearly
Most access problems trace back to the same gap — no clear record of who has access, what role they hold, and what should happen when that changes. Delvia helps you keep that record so problems are visible before they become incidents.
