How to Add a Linktree to Your TikTok Bio

TikTok has been slowly rolling out the ability for its users to add a link on their TikTok bios and some Linktree users with access to the feature are already seeing traffic spikes from TikTok!

The new feature will allow you to use your Linktree to drive your TikTok audience to new content, products, brand partnerships, their other social channels, and more.

First off, it’s important to note that TikTok doesn’t allow all of its users to add bio website links at this time. TikTok is keeping their criteria for who can and can’t access the feature under wraps for now, but has confirmed with us that all business accounts have access to this functionality. It also appears that verified users and users with over 1,000 followers on the platform are able to unlock the feature.

Here’s how to add a Linktree to your TikTok profile:

Step #1
Copy your Linktree URL however’s easiest. You can always grab your Linktree from your admin dashboard by clicking the ‘Share’ button in the top right. 

Step #2
Sign into TikTok, and go to your profile page and click on “Edit profile.”

Step #3
If your TikTok profile has access to add a bio link, you’ll see a “Website” field among all of the other options provided on the “Edit profile” screen, like so:

If bio linking hasn’t been unlocked on your TikTok profile, this “Website” field will not appear. 

Step #4 (if this applies to you)
If TikTok doesn’t display a website field for you, converting your profile into a business account will guarantee that you have access to add a Linktree to your TikTok bio. If you’re a business (or a creator willing to identify themselves as a business) and you’d like to link out from your bio on TikTok, this is a great way to go. 

When you use Linktree in your TikTok bio, you’re giving your audience on TikTok the opportunity to connect with your entire online ecosystem from a single link!

That’s it! Your TikTok profile and videos are now live on your Linktree.

How to display your TikTok profile and videos on your Linktree

Sharing your TikTok videos is easier when you use our TikTok Profile Link App. This feature allows you to display your TikTok profile and showcase up to six TikTok videos so your fans can watch your videos directly on your Linktree.

Show off your profile and embed your videos to create an experience that your fans won’t be able to resist watching.

💡Tip: On our paid plans, you can use our Spotlight Link option so that your TikTok video link opens up as soon as a visitor lands on your Linktree.
