6. Usage Rights

Last updated: April 30, 2026

Usage Rights give your brand legal permission to repurpose a creator’s content across other platforms. Since creators own their videos, you cannot legally reuse them outside TikTok without their approval. Usage Rights make that permission:

  • Clear – everyone knows what’s allowed

  • Trackable – monitor status and duration

  • Enforceable – ensures legal coverage

  • Fairly paid – compensates creators for reuse

This means you can scale your winning content beyond TikTok: ads, website, Amazon, or Meta, without legal risk. You only request rights for the videos you plan to reuse.


6.1 Where to Manage Usage Rights

Go to: Ads → Usage Rights

You’ll see the following states in the tabs:

  • Negotiating – respond to the usage rights that creator declined or requested changes to

  • Pending Payment – creator accepted, either the flat fee payment is not completed, or there is a recurring payment pending for active percentage-based usage rights.

  • Offer Sent – sent offer, waiting for creator's response

  • Active – usage rights live

  • Expired – usage rights ended

  • Compensation Type

    • Meat Ad Spend / Sales – set the % share and max payout (optional)

    • Flat Fee – one-time payment to the creator

    • Free

    • Duration – Months (short-term) or Lifetime (long-term)

  • Add a custom message to explain context

  • Optional to attach your Terms & Conditions

  • Optional to save as template and reuse later

6.3 What Creators See

Creators receive:

  • Your offer details

  • Your custom message

  • Payment amount

  • Usage duration

Once accepted, your legal right to reuse the video is granted.


6.4 Duration Recommendations

  • Months – for short campaigns, seasonal promos, or testing content

  • Perpetual – for evergreen winners, hero videos, or best-selling creatives

Tip: Focus on securing Perpetual rights for top-performing videos that drive consistent GMV. For less proven content, short-term licenses keep costs low while testing reuse ROI.
