The Creator Rewards Program
TikTok pays for views through the Creator Rewards Program, which replaced the Creator Fund. It only pays for videos longer than one minute, and only for qualified views: views from real users, in supported countries, that watch for at least a few seconds and don't come from ads.
How much TikTok pays per 1,000 views
Creators commonly report between $0.40 and $1.00 per 1,000 qualified views. At those rates, 1 million qualified views pay about $400 to $1,000. The old Creator Fund paid only $0.02 to $0.04 per 1,000 views, so longer videos now earn many times more.
What changes your rate
Rates are higher for audiences in the US, UK and other high-value ad markets, for videos people search for, and for content that keeps viewers watching. Entertainment and education niches with strong watch time tend to earn more per view than short trend videos.
Views are only part of the income
Most full-time creators earn more from brand deals, LIVE gifts, subscriptions and TikTok Shop commissions than from views. Use the LIVE gift calculator and the money calculator to see the other sides.
