• Delivery fees — Passed through to customers or absorbed

The viral reach often outweighs the fees — restaurants report 3-5x ROI from TikTok Shop compared to traditional delivery platforms.

Best Practices for TikTok Shop Success

1. Create Scroll-Stopping Content

Your videos need to grab attention in the first 2 seconds. Show the most visually appealing dishes, use trending sounds, and keep videos under 60 seconds for maximum completion rates.

2. Partner with Food Creators

Collaborate with local TikTok creators who align with your brand. User-generated content drives more trust than branded posts.

3. Promote Daily Specials

TikTok Shop is perfect for limited-time offers. Create urgency with "only available today" messaging and track which items perform best.

4. Respond to Reviews

Engage with customer feedback on your TikTok Shop profile. Quick responses build trust and encourage repeat purchases.
