TikTok is testing a new feature that connects advertisers and creators in a financially beneficial way for both parties.
Under the new program, titled TikTok Creative Challenge, marketers can share ad briefs with relevant U.S.-based creators, who will then have complete creative freedom to make a video entry for consideration.
