What music can I use on TikTok?
For personal TikToks, copyright rules don’t apply as the songs available on the platform have already been cleared for use.
When it comes to ads, things get a bit trickier. It’s crucial to use music you fully own the rights to. This is where Epidemic Sound comes in - to make your life easier. Get started today and find the perfect track for your TikTok ads.
How do you get music onto TikTok?
For artists represented by a publisher/label, your music should automatically be uploaded on TikTok’s in-app library upon release.
The process looks a little different for independent artists. You mainly have two ways to get your music on TikTok:
- The first is to edit your TikTok video through a video editing software (you can either do this on your phone or on your laptop) and add your music in the background. Although your music won’t show up on the in-app library, this step still allows you to post a video with your song in it.
- The second is to use a third-party service that allows you to upload music to TikTok.

How to edit music for TikTok?
Editing music for TikTok can be challenging at times, as most videos tend to be fast-paced and transition-heavy. We recommend you match the transitions to the beats of your chosen song (make sure to choose a song that suits the mood of your video).
