Have you ever wondered how much time you spend watching TikTok videos each day? On average, TikTok users spend about 89 minutes per day watching videos. Interestingly, TikTok now receives more daily watch time than YouTube among its users in the United States.

Meanwhile, Indonesia has over 30 million TikTok users, with thousands of new videos uploaded every day. From challenges, dances, and catchy TikTok songs to tutorials, life hacks, and more—the platform fosters a friendly and engaging atmosphere.

Beyond entertainment, TikTok also hosts a wealth of educational and creative content. It’s no surprise that the platform offers both fun and useful information. It’s incredibly easy to lose track of time once you start scrolling on TikTok.

With over 1 billion users worldwide, TikTok has become a powerhouse for product marketing. It generates revenue, offers entertainment, and builds communities.

How to Make Money on TikTok

There are many ways to earn money on TikTok beyond being an influencer. Even as a regular user, you can earn income just by watching videos. Check out these 5 ways to make money on TikTok:

1. Watch Videos Through TikTok Rewards

One of the simplest ways to monetize TikTok is through its reward feature, where users collect points by completing various tasks. Just watch TikTok and earn money—who wouldn’t want that?

Steps to earn money with TikTok Rewards:

• Download or update the TikTok app.
• Tap the gift icon at the edge of a video.
• Complete tasks such as watching videos (10 minutes or more), visiting TikTok Shop, searching specific keywords, or inviting friends.
• Earned coins can be converted: every 10 coins = 1 Rupiah. So 1,000 coins = Rp1,000.

2. Invite Friends

If many of your friends don’t have TikTok yet, invite them to join. You’ll earn Rp15,000 for each person who joins using your referral code. This is also part of TikTok Rewards, but with bigger rewards.

3. TikTok Live Gifts

TikTok’s live streaming feature allows users to earn money. During a livestream, viewers can send virtual gifts that can be converted into real money.

Note: Only users who appear on the For You Page (FYP)—meaning their content is popular—and have over 1,000 followers can access this feature.

How to cash out TikTok Live gifts:

• During livestreams, viewers can send virtual gifts as coins or diamonds.
• Accumulate enough coins or diamonds to exchange for cash.
• Go to the Balance menu and check your Gift Income.
• Choose the amount to withdraw.
• Enter your bank account where your TikTok income will be deposited.

With this method, TikTok users can monetize their popularity and engagement through virtual gifts from livestreams.

4. Join Challenges and Events from TikTok

Another way to make money on TikTok is by joining events or prize challenges hosted by the platform. There’s no minimum follower requirement, so anyone can participate.

Stay updated by regularly checking your TikTok account for event announcements.

To increase your chances of winning, create videos that are as unique and interesting as possible. Don’t forget to share your content on other social platforms as well.

5. Brand Endorsements

If you have a significant following, brands may reach out to collaborate with you. Even users with 1,000 to 25,000 followers are in a great position to get endorsements. Even with fewer followers, don’t hesitate to keep making creative and unique content—a single viral video can open doors for brand deals.

6. Open a TikTok Shop

You can sell and promote products easily and actively. You’ve probably seen people going live to promote their products—if someone wants to buy, they can just check out using the yellow cart icon.

TikTok is an effective platform for earning money by selling in a modern and practical way.

If you’re wondering how to sell on TikTok, here are a few easy steps:

• Create a business account
• Add your products
• Start making content
• Go live
• Offer 5-star customer service

So, anyone can use TikTok to make money. It’s not just for entertainment—it’s a money-making opportunity, too.
