TikTok’s In-Feed Ads get more visual with Interactive Add-Ons

A handful of new interactive elements will help advertisers get more creative with In-Feed Ads.

These new features come in two different flavors, Standard or Premium. According to TikTok, standard Add-Ons are made to “reach lower-funnel marketing goals, like driving clicks and conversions” while Premium Ads move up the funnel to aid in “brand awareness and community building.”

Premium Add-Ons. The new elements to target the lower funnel include:

  • Pop-out Showcase. This image element will lay over the ad with the ability to drive product clicks that can be accompanied by text.
  • Gesture. With a tap or swipe, a user can interact to obtain reward credits in the ‘Gesture reward card’.
  • Super Like 2.0. This is coming soon but will allow for an even more visuals after a user likes an ad, including a pop up card after the like.

Standard Add-Ons. The new elements to target the mid/upper funnel include:

  • Display Card. Visually showcase brand messaging or offers via Display Card that transcends the standard card format.
  • Gift Code Sticker. Contrary to the TikTok release, these arguably target the lower funnel as viewers can click for a code and copy it before heading to purchase.
  • Voting Sticker. Leverage the community for their input with a traditional-looking voting sticker.
  • Countdown Sticker. Slap additional information over an ad for upcoming releases or important dates.
