What triggers it
Trading, marketing or giving access to gambling, gambling-like activities (social casinos) or mystery value products: affiliate codes, links, 'sign up with my link', pointing viewers off-platform to bet.
What TikTok says
“Gambling, gambling-like activities, or mystery value products”
We last checked this against TikTok's page on .
How to fix it
Remove codes, links and calls to sign up. Only eligible verified business accounts may market gambling, and only in some regions.
Good to know
Sportsbook or casino app screens with promo codes, 'link in bio for free spins', loot or mystery box sales, crypto-casino referrals. Showing gambling without a way to access it is ineligible for the For You feed instead (“Gambling shown or promoted”).
