    It's bullsh1t. I created the shop, for the 1st time, brand new and LESS than 5 minutes later, I got a violation. This has happened 2x in 2 days. I didn't have a chance to do ANYTHING with the account. Within 5 minutes of OPENING the shop, they gave me a violation. Thank you for explaining this, because they SERIOUSLY messed up. Who will want to deal with them now? They should have screened for the product(s) they were having an issue with, not arbitrarily shut shops down within minutes of them being opened. I've been in IT over 30 years and whoever did that algorithm does NOT know what they're doing and should be fired.

    Things to consider when doing the work around..
    1) ppl are getting shut down within minutes to hours of being accepted. Even a legit seller might not have enough time to get a video up so that theory’s flawed.
    2) ppl are getting banned from ever having a shop after doing this. Not worth it.
    3) ppl are reporting having actually talked to TT reps who are saying they are shutting down shops that opened because they did the work around.
    It’s so bad out there that ppl are demanding that those that are promoting this work around need to delete their videos and/or make videos exposing how this is not working and is creating havoc.
    Having said all this I will say I created a new account, did the work around, never posted a single video and after 3 days unlinked and deleted before TT found me. I’ll just work on getting 5K followers and do it the right way.

    My editing feature has been acting up and I posted a story talking about it, trying to see if other creators were experiencing the same thing. I didn't add a sound, it was just me talking. A few mins after posting, the sound was *removed* and I wasn't able to get an explanation. The next two videos I posted COMPLETELY flopped. Any thoughts on this? Is tiktok punishing me for pointing out their flaws? 😂

It was a shopable video with a disclaimer that was only visible to me. It told me that this is what my video would look like if I paid to promote it.

    Two quick questions. Number one you said that you’re going to go live at noon tomorrow but what time zone? Question number two is I have a regular TikTok account with over 280,000 followers and obviously this is very different content of what I normally make. I’ve been trying to do some TikTok shop videos every day, and, the content is flopping. I’m obviously not surprised. I was going to make one of these new shops with less than 5000 followers to start fresh. Since it sounds like that’s not a great idea anymore, can you talk about balance, and how to transition a personal account that is niched to an account that is also on TikTok shop. For example, are you doing one TikTok shop video a day but two niche videos? Are you just doing three or four TikTok Shop videos and waiting for the algorithm to catch up, I would love to know your thoughts on how to really maximize my opportunities on TikTok shop with an establish personal account.

    My TikTok shop received a violation (with a 30-day funds freeze) literally the minute it was approved. I tried going the ticket route, buy TikTok support kept telling me to file an appeal despite my repeatedly telling them that I'm an individual and providing my DL and passport. They finally closed out the support ticket and told me I had to file an appeal. So I filed the appeal and included the handwritten note with the date and the name of my shop with pictures of the front and back of my DL and a statement that I am an individual, not a business and therefore do not have the warehouse documents, tax documents, etc. They denied my appeal because I didn't supply them with documents that don't exist. The whole thing is maddening and I give up. So the funds freeze remains in effect. TikTok support sucks!

    My account just got shut down. I’m trying to start a new one but it’s saying I’m maxed out on the number of accounts I can have. How do I set up another one with the same personal iformation? Or do I have to get another ID? There is no info on how to start multiple affiliate/seller accounts for TikTok on UA-cam. Maybe good video idea. I can’t figure it out. Please help. I know other people have set up multiple accounts, so I know it can be done, but I can’t figure it out.

    If I set up a TikTok Shop as a business, I have an LLC, and documentation, etc. It would be a new shop with no followers. Can I still do affiliate sales on the business shop or is all this suspending going on because you can only sell your own products on your shop?
