Subscriptions are everywhere. Today much of the content we consume is facilitated by streaming services. And, in some of them, we have to pay a monthly subscription to continue using them. It was only a matter of time before social networks started charging for content as well. Instagram is already testing a new subscription service and everything seems to indicate that it will not be the only social network to do so, since it has been revealed that TikTok also wants you to pay to enjoy exclusive content .
TikTok tests a subscription service for content creators
TikTok is still the social network of the moment. The rapid rise experienced by the young platform since its launch has led it to become the most downloaded app in the world. This has led many influencers and content creators to see this social network as an opportunity to earn good income .
Although there are already ways to earn money on TikTok, the reality is that the platform does not have an established monetization system, until now. Well, The Information media has revealed that TikTok is testing a new feature that will allow influencers or TikTokers to charge a subscription to their followers . This information was provided to the media by a brand spokesperson (whose name has not been revealed) who did not offer more details about this new function.
When will TikTok subscriptions officially launch?
Unfortunately, it is unknown which users are testing this new TikTok feature. We also do not know the price that these subscriptions will have or when they will officially arrive in the app . This information has probably been revealed intentionally in response to the recent announcement of Instagram subscriptions.
For this reason, TikTok may still be in very early stages of development , unlike its main competitor, which is already testing the subscription for content in a small group of users in the United States.
And you… Would you like to charge a subscription so they can see your TikTok profile? Well, while you wait for this new feature to be launched, we recommend that you take a look at this article where we explain how to get more followers on TikTok.
