TikTok for Artists Eligibility and Supported Territories
TikTok for Artists is available to certified TikTok artist accounts located in supported regions. To access the platform, an artist’s registered account country must be one of the following:
- Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Egypt, Finland, France, Germany, Ghana, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Lebanon, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States.

Logging In and Account Connection
Account setup and claiming must be completed directly through TikTok’s native website or application. FUGA cannot claim or manage TT4A accounts on behalf of an artist or label.
To log into TikTok for Artists:
- Access the TikTok for Artists portal and confirm whether you are logging in as an artist or an artist/label team member.
- Authenticate using your TikTok credentials.
- Connect the profile to a TikTok for Business account when prompted.
Note: Linking a TikTok for Business account is required solely to enable team permission controls and deliver analytics data. Connecting to TikTok for Business does not convert the in-app TikTok artist account into a business profile.
Music Tab Management and Technical Support Pathways
The Music Tab on an artist profile controls how catalog tracks are displayed on TikTok. Key functions include adding or removing specific songs, correcting mislinked tracks, and mapping audio to official releases.
Support pathways for catalog and Music Tab issues depend on the artist's registered country:
- Supported Territories: Artists and teams in the supported territories listed above must handle all Music Tab corrections, sound remapping, missing buttons, and profile unlinking directly through TikTok for Artists support tools.
- Non-Supported Territories: For artists registered outside the supported territories, catalog issues and remapping requests may still be escalated through FUGA. Contact your FUGA representative or reach out via our support channel.

TikTok for Artists provides specialized tools to monitor performance and promote upcoming releases:
- Analytics Dashboard: Access daily performance metrics covering song usage across posts, listener engagement, follower demographics, and overall catalog reach.
- Pre-Release Campaigns: Launch pre-save campaigns for upcoming releases to build anticipation across Digital Service Providers (DSPs) such as Spotify and Apple Music. Campaign performance is monitored directly within the Analytics Dashboard.
