What is GMV Max?

1. Products promoted in GMV Max campaigns cannot be used in Standard Shop Ads (VSA/PSA). Therefore, for advertisers wishing to promote products in GMV Max, all ads featuring the said product must be paused. Advertisers can pause all ads featuring said product during the GMV Max campaign creation phase. They will see a pop-up to pause all existing ads featuring that product.
2. Product GMV Max requires a high volume of creative velocity, advertisers must be able to produce high quality video assets and product images (for their product listing). Product GMV Max automatically selects ad formats (VSA or PSA) and positions them in various ad placements to reach potential customers, including in-feed, search, ShopTab and more. On the premise of achieving the ROI goal, it will optimize the GMV of the promoted products to their maximum extent.
3. Product GMV Max can automatically retrieve videos with product anchor links from available TikTok accounts, as well as Spark Ads posts with product anchor links that are uploaded into the ad account to be used as ad creatives. In auto-select mode, it can also leverage videos that have been used in VSA, even if they don't have product anchor links (including ads only videos)
4. 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.

1. Log into the Seller Center, and click Data Compass -> Product
2. Modify the metrics to display the GMV and LIVE GMV of the products, and you can obtain the non-LIVE GMV by calculation
   • The non-LIVE GMV here excludes the platform price subsidy and should be lower than the GMV that you can obtain from the ads dashboard, which includes the platform price subsidy

• You can also check the SKU orders of selected product in this dashboard, which should be equal to the SKU orders what you can obtain from the ads dashboard (Orders and SKU

3. Change the time window to check if there is an incremental GMV for promoted products before and after implementing Product GMV Max
   • Note: Organic GMV naturally fluctuates over time. Consequently, sellers may notice a decrease in non-LIVE GMV when organic GMV drops, particularly after promotional periods. If there is a significant dip in organic GMV, the overall non-LIVE GMV will inevitably decline as well. For this reason, such periods are not ideal for evaluating the effectiveness of Product GMV Max, as it could lead to the mistaken perception that the ads are ineffective, when in fact the decline is due to a decrease in the organic GMV of the product.

1. Set an ROI target which is higher than the recommended value (historical level), which negatively impacts ad performance. It's normal to observe reduced spending when increasing the ROI target.
2. Set a low budget, resulting in ads not running to their full potential.

• You can lower the ROI target if a higher marketing cost rate is acceptable. Normally, lowering the ROI target results in a higher cost & total non-LIVE GMV. But if you set a ROI target that is higher than the historical level, it's normal to see reduced spending and GMV but get a lower marketing cost rate

• Please provide 100% more budget to ensure there is room for non-LIVE GMV growth
• However, be aware that the budget will only be fully utilized if the ROI target is achieved. It's common to see a low Budget Utilization rate, particularly when you set a high ROI target.
• Please increase the budget on time and always keep the budget consumption rate below 80%

  • Access to operate shop official TikTok account and Shop Ads tab in Seller Center (Shop Admin Role)
  • Access to operate the ad account and linked TikTok accounts in Business Center (BC Admin Role)
  • Ensure that all linked TikTok accounts are assigned to the user with advertising permissions

2. Product Unavailable

• Due to factors such as violations or out-of-stock issues, products that are unavailable on the e-commerce side cannot be used to create ads
• If you turn off the original campaign and notice the product status is unavailable when creating a new one, please wait around 5 minutes for the system to release the product from the old campaign
• In other situations, raise an issue to your sales rep with the affected Product ID

1. Poor ROI Achievement

2. Low Spending

• Client profile: For clients who deliver as much as possible and achieve the highest GMV, while maintaining a desired ROI

• What can enable my campaign to spend more & maximize results on Mega Sale without changing the target?
  • Product GMV Max
    • Continuously produce and post new creatives with product anchor links. The campaign performance is largely dependent on the number and the quality of creatives
    • Authorize affiliate videos for Product GMV Max if they haven't been used yet

• Client profile: For clients who want to spend a fixed amount of budget on Shop Ads, allowing some ROI fluctuation, likely those who have already signed packages with TTS and have to fulfill spending obligations

• Product GMV Max
  • Lowering the ROI target can increase spending on Product GMV Max. Sellers can lower the ROI target on the day of the sales and observe cost changes over the next 2-3 hours to decide whether to further reduce the ROI to increase spending

• Highly recommended for advertisers who wish to maximise budget consumption during Mega Sale Days
• Based on the given budget within the campaign, advertisers can expect at least 80% budget consumption rate for the given time period
• Target ROI is no longer guaranteed. Budget consumption will be the campaign's first priority, consistent with TTAM's Maximum Delivery bidding, with the goal to maximise gross revenue while fully spending the budget

• ROI to set = 10/(2000/1000) = 5
• Expected ad cost = $2000/5 = $400 USD

• Based on historical data, we will provide three tiers of ROI targets, each with an estimated GMV that can be achieved under the corresponding target
• Whenever you choose the highest or lowest ROI targets, we will provide three new tiered targets again to help you further adjust your goals and achieve GMV goal

• Take note of TikTok Shop policies and avoid moderation policy violations on product level which may result in ad rejections
• Ensure high and stable amount of inventory, particularly for top-performing products
  • Limited stock for good-performing products can heavily impact GMV Max's scalability
• Maintain a good variety and amount of creatives
  • Limited creatives may result in creative fatigue and stagnant ad performance
  • For LIVE GMV Max, recommend creating video creatives which invite users into the liveroom
• Ensure price competitiveness across platforms for key sales seasons, particularly for new shops

2. If Mutually Exclusive Ads Deactivation hasn't been activated in the primary account, it can be activated during the process of creating GMV Max campaigns.

3. Once Mutually Exclusive Ads Deactivation is active, sellers can choose the official TikTok account to run LIVE GMV Max. Upon clicking 'publish', a notification will appear with a list of mutually exclusive ads that will be turned off, asking the seller to double-confirm.
