Creative Instructions for Product GMV Max

Introduction

Product GMV Max is our new TikTok Shop Advertising Automation solution that optimizes for a seller’s total channel ROI for TikTok Shop. GMV Max is a highly innovative, first of its kind solution that primarily differentiates itself via two unique features:
  • Product GMV Max leverages all available creatives automatically and deploys them in form of a "super campaign", which does not require any operational inputs from the client
  • Product GMV Max optimizes organic delivery in addition to paid ad traffic, providing advertisers with incremental GMV that would not otherwise be attainable without Product GMV max.
As a result, all orders generated from promoted products, including those from organic content and affiliate orders, will be counted as Product GMV Max.*Reminder: Product GMV Max helps improve the organic traffic of both seller videos and affiliate videos. Affiliate videos receive a commercial content label, and if you choose, you can label your seller videos with a branded content toggle.

Creative Pool of Product GMV Max

Any video with product anchor links (one or multiple) can be used by your GMV Max campaigns, but only videos that have been authorized to be used in ads can actually be used as ad creatives for Product GMV Max campaigns. But please note that videos with multiple product anchor links from different shops will not be eligible for Product GMV Max ads.Product GMV Max automatically fetches organic videos which have a corresponding product anchor link and uses them as ads for the selected products in the campaign, as long as these videos are authorized to be used in ads. The authorized sources from where videos can be fetched are:
  1. Videos from TikTok Official Account of the shop
  2. Videos from TikTok Business Account of the shop
  3. Videos from Available TikTok Accounts in the shop's Seller Center (which are exactly Authorized TikTok Accounts in the shop's TikTok Business Center)
  4. Spark ads posts (authorized code videos) in the TTAM Creative Library from the ad account which has been selected to run Product GMV Max (spark ads posts in other ad accounts cannot be used)
All other TikTok accounts cannot be used, such as shop's Marketing TikTok Accounts. If sellers want to use Marketing TikTok Accounts or other TikTok accounts as creative sources, they should link these accounts to their shop in the Seller Center, thereby making them Available TikTok Accounts in the Seller Center.Also, it's suggested to run Product GMV Max in the frequently used ad account. This way, previously authorized spark ads posts can be used. Otherwise, sellers need to reauthorize these spark ads posts in the selected ad account one more time.
