  • Code within the TikTok app indicates that TikTok is testing an ad-free monthly subscription plan.
  • The plan currently costs $4.99 per month in the US in this testing phase, though pricing could change when the feature rolls out widely.

TikTok gets much credit for popularizing short-format video content on social media. The threat from TikTok is so real that other social media apps had to incorporate short format videos into their apps, alongside video editing tools for creators. So, it wouldn’t be wrong to call TikTok a trendsetter. But now TikTok seems to be the one aping a trend from a few other social media apps, as it has started offering users an ad-free monthly subscription option.

We located new strings in the latest version of the TikTok app that indicated that the short-form video content service was going to offer an ad-free monthly subscription plan as an option to its users.
