What it does

What Linkrunner sends to TikTok

Events API postbacks

Installs, sign-ups, purchases and custom events go to the pixel connected in Linkrunner so TikTok can optimize on them.

Revenue for value bidding

Purchase events carry the amount and the ISO 4217 currency your app sends.

Results per creative

One Linkrunner campaign link per ad gives you installs and revenue for every creative, ready for ROAS measurement.

Deferred deep linking

Users who install from the ad land on the right screen after first open through deferred deep links, on Android and iOS.

Set up TikTok Ads in 4 steps

02

Create a pixel

In TikTok Events Manager, connect a Web data source with manual setup and Events API, then copy the Pixel ID and access token.

03

Paste the credentials

Add the Pixel ID and access token to your TikTok account in Linkrunner.

04

Create one link per ad

Create a Linkrunner campaign per creative and paste its link as the destination URL in a web-to-app Sales campaign with a Website destination.

Notes and limits

Worth knowing before you launch

TikTok campaigns appear in Linkrunner after someone clicks a Linkrunner campaign link, as with Snapchat Ads. They are not detected on their own like Meta campaigns.

Events go to TikTok only for installs that came through a Linkrunner link with a valid ttclid. Don't strip URL parameters.

Choosing App as the destination bypasses Linkrunner's tracking. Use Website.

One pixel per ad account covers every campaign. New events can take up to an hour to show in Events Manager.
