TikTok LIVE will start rolling out new LIVE Monetization Guidelines and educational initiatives to foster positive, authentic and joyful LIVE communities. The guidelines show how some content—including inauthentic or low-quality is not eligible to earn money on TikTok LIVE.&nbsp;

While the majority of creators already adhere to these rules, it's important to note that those who violate them will be notified and may have their access to monetization features restricted. This approach ensures a fair and transparent environment on TikTok, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive within the established guidelines.&nbsp;

TikTok is also updating its approach to onboarding new Live creators to support better and welcome new streamers safely. TikTok has some of the industry's firmest live streaming requirements, as creators must be at least 18 years old, and their accounts must meet additional criteria to go LIVE. Now, newly eligible LIVE creators will receive access to advanced LIVE monetization features in phases to learn live's rules as they grow their audience. To help them do that, TikTok is also launching a new&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/safety/en/live-safety-guide?sc_version=2024">LIVE Safety Center</a>&nbsp;resource and updating its in-app LIVE Safety Education Center, where creators can view policy violations and educational content.

Waseem Sayegh, Head of TikTok LIVE, Middle East, Turkey, Africa and Pakistan, said:&nbsp;<i>"We believe these updates will empower our LIVE community's creativity while helping ensure our features promote the positive interactions they're intended for. Most LIVE creators already follow our safety rules and Monetization Guidelines, and we'll continue to build resources, moderation processes and tools to help them foster safe, inclusive and authentic LIVE communities.</i>"

These updates build on TikTok's continued investment in live safety and content quality. More than 40,000 people work alongside technology to keep the TikTok platform safe, including dedicated teams and detection models for live. TikTok offers over 10 customizable safety tools specifically for live creators and numerous features that help viewers personalize how they enjoy live content.&nbsp;
