A TikTok spokesperson confirmed with Variety that the social media giant launched a "single-market test" of a subscription plan without ads in one country outside the United States but explained that the company may not offer the service in more locations.
News of the potential ad-free subscription comes as the company recently launched TikTok Shop, a new marketplace where users can buy items directly in the app.
The company told the Associated Press on Sept. 12 that the online shop will include several features like "Shop Tab," a marketplace it's been testing on the app since August, and affiliate videos in a user’s feed that allows creators to earn commissions from products.
