Link in bio

Link in bio for TikTok

On TikTok, the link in bio is a clickable website field you add through Edit profile once your account qualifies (typically a Business account or a personal account that meets follower requirements). Because TikTok captions are not clickable, the bio link is your main path off-platform. Creators monetize it by routing followers to affiliate offers with tracked links and codes.

How the TikTok bio link works

TikTok lets eligible accounts add a clickable website link to their profile. The simplest way to unlock it is to switch to a Business account (free) under Settings and privacy, which exposes the Website field in Edit profile. Some personal accounts also get the link field once they meet follower thresholds.

Once added, the link shows under your bio and is tappable — unlike your video captions, which are not clickable.

How to add a link to your TikTok bio

If you do not see a Website field yet, switch account types first, then follow these steps.

  • Go to Settings and privacy, then Account, and switch to a Business account if needed
  • Return to your profile and tap Edit profile
  • Tap Website and paste your URL
  • Save — the link now appears under your bio
  • Optionally add an email under the business contact options

One URL, many destinations

TikTok gives you a single website field, so if you need to send followers to several places, point that one URL at a simple landing page that lists them. That page is just the container — keep it short and lead with the destination that matches your most recent videos.

Monetizing your TikTok bio link

TikTok drives huge discovery and purchase intent, and the bio link is how you capture it off the For You feed. Affiliate marketing is the most accessible path: recommend products in your videos, link them with a tracked URL or code in the bio, and earn commission on sales.

The friction is finding programs and getting paid, especially internationally. A marketplace like Afflio lets you find brands to promote in one place, grab tracked links, and get paid via RazorpayX or PayPal — the earning layer behind your TikTok bio link, not a bio-page host.

TikTok-specific tips

Because trends move fast, update your bio link to match whatever is currently going viral for you. Say "link in bio" clearly in the video and on-screen, since many viewers will not read the caption. And always disclose affiliate relationships to stay compliant with TikTok's branded-content rules and the FTC.

Why can't I add a link to my TikTok bio?+
