How to Switch to a TikTok Business Account

Change your account type to Business in a few taps — and know the trade-offs first, including what it does to commercial music access. Here is how.

Switching to a Business account unlocks business tools and analytics, but it comes with a trade-off worth knowing before you tap: Business accounts use a commercial music library rather than the full library available to personal and Creator accounts. The switch itself is quick and reversible, and it does not hand access to anyone — it just changes your own account type.

If your situation is actually …

Before you start

  • You are signed in to the account

    You change your own account type from within the app.

  • You accept the music trade-off

    Business accounts use the commercial music library. If full music access matters, weigh Creator instead.
