TikTok ads for Kenyan businesses
Upload a video or pictures, set a budget from KES 500 a day and pay with M-Pesa — we check every ad, launch it for you, and you only pay for what TikTok actually spends.

01How it works
No agency and no complicated ad tools. You make the ad, we handle the TikTok side, and you can follow every shilling.
Upload a vertical video, or pictures if you don't have one, write one line about your offer and pick a button like Order now. We check them as they upload, so you know your ad is ready for TikTok.
Choose a daily budget from KES 500 and how many days to run. You see the full price, our 15% fee included, before you pay with M-Pesa or card.
A real person on our team checks your video or pictures, text and link, then publishes the ad for you. TikTok runs its own check, usually within 24 hours.
See how many people saw your ad, who clicked and what you've spent, in plain English. Pause or stop any time, and whatever isn't spent comes back to your wallet.
02Features
The parts of TikTok advertising that matter to a small business, without the jargon or the dollar card.
We hold your budget when you submit. When the ad ends, whatever TikTok didn't spend comes back to your wallet, with its share of the 15% fee.
Before anything reaches TikTok, someone on our team looks at your video or pictures, text and link, and tells you plainly if something needs fixing.

04FAQ
Still deciding? Creating an account is free, and you only pay when you launch an ad, from KES 500 a day.
You top up a wallet in KES with M-Pesa or card, through Paystack. When you submit an ad, we hold its budget plus our 15% service fee from your wallet.
If your wallet is short, you can pay the difference right there, and the ad goes to our team as soon as the payment comes through.
It comes back to your wallet automatically, along with its share of the fee.
If we can't approve an ad, you get everything back. When an ad finishes or you stop it, we wait about 3 hours for TikTok's final numbers, then return whatever wasn't spent.
No. We can post your ad from our TikTok account, so you can start today. If you'd rather it shows your own name and profile picture, connect your TikTok profile in Settings: scan one code in the TikTok app and it connects by itself.
Other apps in TikTok's network, which TikTok calls Pangle. Every ad runs in the TikTok app, and you can switch partner apps on too, for an extra 10% fee on what's spent (on top of the 15% service fee).
They often bring more clicks for less, which can suit an ad that sends people to your website or WhatsApp. But people there can't see your TikTok profile or follow you, so profile visits and new followers only come from the TikTok app. That's why they stay off unless you switch them on.
An optional extra for digging deeper into an ad's results: what each new follower cost, what each profile visit cost, and where in Kenya your viewers are, county by county. It adds 5% to the fee on what an ad spends (on top of the 15% service fee), so an ad that spends KES 5,000 pays KES 250 for it.
It's off unless you switch it on in Settings, and it applies to the ads you submit while it's on. An ad submitted without it can't get it later.
Followers and profile visits go to the TikTok account an ad posts from, so the two costs show on ads that post from your own TikTok profile. An ad that posts from our account gets viewers by county.
Everything else in your results is free: times shown, clicks, video plays, new followers and profile visits, and viewers by age and gender.
A vertical video (9:16) between 5 and 60 seconds, at least 540 × 960 pixels. Most people decide in the first 3 seconds, so show your product or offer straight away. We check every video as it uploads and tell you if anything needs fixing.
Use pictures. Upload clear pictures of what you sell (upright ones fill the screen), choose a sound from TikTok's music library, and people swipe through them in their feed. It costs the same and goes through the same checks. Picture ads show in the TikTok app only.
Usually within 24 hours. First a real person on our team checks it, then TikTok runs its own review. We'll let you know as soon as it's live.
Yes, any time, from your dashboard. A paused ad stops showing and stops spending until you resume it. Stopping ends it for good, and the unspent budget comes back to your wallet.
Every ad has to follow TikTok's advertising policies. That rules out things like misleading claims, weapons, tobacco and vapes, and adult content. If something needs changing, we'll tell you exactly what before anything goes to TikTok, and the money held for that ad comes back to your wallet.
