TikTok Shop Requirements
TikTok Shop Requirements
This page covers the practical requirements for using SellerOps Watcher.
Required Prerequisites
- An active TikTok Shop seller account.
- A supported marketplace connection (US or UK in current implementation).
- A SellerOps account at app.sellerops.io.
Supported Marketplaces (Current)
| Marketplace | Supported | Credential Path | Default Timezone | Default Cutoff |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| US | Yes | US TikTok credentials | America/Los_Angeles |
9 PM |
| UK | Yes | UK TikTok credentials | Europe/London |
9 PM |
Onboarding country aliases such as EU are normalized to the UK credential path in current auth logic.
OAuth Authorization
SellerOps uses TikTok’s official OAuth flow:
- Start connection in SellerOps.
- Approve authorization in TikTok.
- Return to SellerOps for automatic bootstrap and initial sync.
OAuth state tokens are time-limited (10 minutes) for CSRF protection.
Data Needed for Watcher Workflows
- Order identifiers and statuses
- Order and dispatch timestamps
- Shipping/tracking status fields used for deadline monitoring
SellerOps does not ask for your TikTok password directly; authentication happens on TikTok authorization pages.
Connection and Account Constraints
- A TikTok Shop can be connected to only one SellerOps account at a time.
- Watcher plan currently includes up to 1,000 orders/month and 1 user seat.
Sync Behavior
- Reconciler: periodic sync cycle (every ~5 minutes)
- Webhooks: event-driven updates
Short propagation delays are normal after first connection.
TikTok policy language (including Account Health) changes over time. Always confirm your current policy text in Seller Center for your specific market.
