Soco works with Personal (Creator) TikTok accounts only. If your account is set to Business, you will need to switch before Soco can work.

Note: TikTok no longer uses the label "Creator account". It is now called a Personal account. They refer to the same thing.

  1. Open the TikTok app

  2. Tap Profile at the bottom

  3. Tap the Menu ☰ button at the top

  4. Tap Settings and privacy

  5. Tap Account

Important to know

Worth knowing before you switch:

  • Soco does not work with Business accounts. You must be on a Personal (Creator) account to use Soco.

  • Switching account types does not delete your TikTok content or followers.

  • TikTok advises against switching back and forth between account types frequently.
