TikTok Celebrates Small Business Month with $1M Ad Credit Giveaway

TikTok is commemorating Small Business Month with several initiatives designed to support small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). The platform is offering a range of resources, including a substantial $1 million ad credit giveaway for one lucky business.

TikTok Small Business Month

TikTok recognizes the vital role SMBs play in the U.S. economy. With over 7.5 million businesses already using the platform to connect with audiences, these initiatives aim to further empower SMB growth.

Small businesses are the heart of innovation, culture, and community across the United States, and on TikTok, their impact is bigger than ever.

Support and Resources for SMBs

TikTok has launched several programs to help businesses maximize their presence on the platform:

  • Small Biz Fest TikTok Academy Webinars: Starting May 15th, weekly webinars will provide expert guidance and strategies for effective TikTok campaigns.
  • 100 Ways to Grow on TikTok: A video podcast series featuring insights and stories from successful small business owners and brands.
  • Small Biz Fest Roadshows: In-person events in Los Angeles, New York City, and Austin, offering hands-on learning for small business owners.

$1 Million Ad Credit Opportunity

One lucky U.S.-based SMB with fewer than 500 employees will win $1 million in TikTok ad credits. Additionally, 500 other SMBs will receive $2,000 in ad credits and a consultation with a TikTok ads expert.

Winning businesses must utilize their ad credits by July 14, 2025.

These resources offer valuable support for businesses looking to leverage TikTok's vast audience and engagement potential. Despite ongoing discussions regarding its future in the U.S., TikTok remains a powerful platform for reaching younger demographics.
