To be part of the TikTok Ignite Automation Challenge, campaigns must have a minimum spend of $5k+ and be submitted with a valid campaign ID. Every entry must highlight at least one of TikTok’s automation solutions (GMV Max, Smart+ Catalog, Smart+ Lead Gen, Smart+ App, or Symphony), demonstrating how these tools were leveraged to drive performance.
Judging will be based on a combination of campaign performance and creative excellence, ensuring winners reflect both measurable results and standout creative execution. The top-three scoring submissions overall will be awarded grand prizes, while the highest-scoring entries within each category will be recognized as category winners. A campaign can win both a grand prize and a category award; however, winning a category does not guarantee a grand prize.
