CTOnews.com, March 7 (Xinhua)-- TikTok is adding a new way for creators to make money on the platform. The short video platform announced a new feature called Series (Series), which allows creators to set up paid viewing for their own exclusive content, and these videos can be longer than normal videos.

Creators will be able to set prices for videos ranging from $1 to $190 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 1319 yuan), which fans can buy through the link in the video or the creator's profile page.

At present, paid video is only available to some creators, and applications will be open in the coming months. In the early days of its launch, TikTok will allow creators to retain all their revenue, and it remains to be seen what percentage of subsequent platforms will be drawn.

TikTok says the Series feature is designed to help creators provide more diverse and high-quality content and attract more loyal fans. The company believes that as users' demand for video content increases, it is necessary to provide longer and more in-depth video formats.

Series function is the latest attempt by TikTok to seek differentiation and growth in the highly competitive video market. Previously, the company has gradually increased the maximum video length to 10 minutes, and plans to support 60 minutes of video in the future. At the same time, TikTok is also facing challenges from platforms such as YouTube and Instagram, which are constantly introducing new features and incentive programs to attract and retain creators.
