TikTok is working on plenty of things at once, and recently a piece of news broke about the launch of TikTok Music to compete against Spotify and Apple Music. Today, TikTok announced its latest partnership with Ticketmaster, which allows users to buy concerts effortlessly. Ticketmaster debuted with its concert ticket booking service on the popular short-form video-sharing app TikTok. Not only viewers but also the privilege of users to link their event directly to their content.
All kinds of creators, including music artists, comedians, sports teams, venues, and theatre productions, can embed event links within their videos. Before continuing, you should know that TikTok is gradually rolling out and is currently open to a few creators like the Backstreet Boys, Demi Lovato, OneRepublic, Usher, and WWE.
How can creators add links to videos via Ticketmaster tickets on TikTok?
Only eligible creators can perform this action.
- Select the Ädd Link” option, which appears while uploading the post
- Then select the Ticketmaster option and search for the event they were looking to add.
- Choose “Add to Video” to add a link; now post the video.
- That’s it!
How to buy tickets on TikTok
Purchase an event ticket with a few simple clicks.
- On TikTok, when you go through any of the videos, the event link will appear at the bottom-left of the video.
- Click on that, and then it will redirect you to the TikTok in-app browser.
- From there, you have to complete the payment to continue with your purchased ticket through Ticketmaster.
- Done.
TikTok mini-ticketing apps appear on the screen’s bottom-left, allowing users to choose which app browser they want to continue with to buy an event ticket. This helps users discover the latest events, and event organisers reach out to more fans and potential ticket buyers.
