Hello! I am George Pierce, this post is about how to make money on TikTok by creating QUIZZES! What makes this money maker so appealing is that you can use free tools to create quizzes you can post on TT, as you see above. You can also share your quizzes on other social media sites such as YT, IG, FB, Pinterest, and so on, but the sweet spot seems to be TT.
On TT, you can make money in two ways.
#1 The TT Creator Fund
To qualify to apply, you need to satisfy the following:
- Be in the US, UK, Germany, France, Spain or Italy.
- Be 18 years or older.
- Have 10,000 followers or more.
- Have 100,000 or more views in the last 30 days.
- Adhere to the TikTok Community Guidelines.
Once you qualify, log into your TT account, then go to your account settings, next, select “Creator Tools.” Now, Under “Creator Next,” you’ll see the “Creator Fund.” That is where you submit your application.
Once enrolled in the TT Creator Fund, your TT quizzes should earn 2 to 4 cents for 1K views. This relates to about $20 to $40 per 1M views. On TT, 1M views can happen almost overnight.
It is not stated above, but, to the best of my knowledge, an additional requirement is that your videos must be more than one minute long.
#2 An Affiliate Link in your Bio.
For example: Most of the above quiz videos, perhaps all of the above videos, are being made with Canva. In the Bio, consider letting viewers know that the quiz was created by Canva, get a 30-day free trial of the Pro version, and then your referral link to Canva. Canva is free and can help us to create anything that is image or video related, including dozens of premade quiz templates. Even a beginner can use Canva to make professional quiz videos for TT (and other sites as well).
Above is a snapshot of one of the premade quizzes at Canva, which is available with the free version.
Canva also has Voice-Over as a built-in option. I believe that voice-over is a must. The voice-overs are free but have limits. TTS Maker has free voice-over software with a cap of 20K characters a week, CreateStudio has unlimited voice-over and animated video creator/editor for a one-time cost of $67.
The bottom line is that Canva allows us to easily create quality quiz videos.
Content!??
An easy way to generate content is with ChatGPT. Type in what you want, such as a 10-question multiple-choice quiz about pets, and ChatGPT will provide you with your content almost instantly. You will get the questions and answers, and thanks to ChatGPT, you will have your content and script.
New videos on TT and YT!
TT started this idea of giving new videos more of a chance, and YT followed. Even if you are brand new with no videos, and no followers or subscribers, both TT and YT will share your videos. If they do well, your videos are shared with more and more people. In other words, new is not a problem, if your viewers like your videos!
Videos That Viewers Like!
Quizzes do very well on TT, but take the time to check out other quiz videos. Your intent is not to steal or duplicate content, NEVER do that, but learn the little tricks that help put their videos over the top. Add little things such as blinking answers, which is a built-in feature on many of the Canva templates, and the power of sound effects. which are available at the YT audio library and on sites such as Pixabay and MixKit. Put a little extra effort into sound effects, it literally will be worth it.
TIP: Also give your tags and title a little extra attention. The best tags have less competition, but be sure to include tags and a title that accurately describe your video. It helps TT to know who to suggest your video to, so it helps your new channel get the right viewers. The right viewers will love your videos, and watch them to the end, and this sends a strong signal to TT to share your videos with more viewers. Your videos can go viral on TT, causing a chain reaction.
Your videos will improve with experience, but Canva can get you off to a great start.
Much success,
George Pierce

Indeed a great info! I do use Canva free version for my video making and it is easy to use. Thank you Terri and George for sharing this.
I love Canva, and I am also a huge fan of Renderforest if you haven't tried it. Thank you, Shalini.
This is very good information and something to consider doing. You make it look easy and simple to do with the tools at Canva.
Thank you George Pierce for sharing this in the SE community.
Canva is free and it is awesome. I am also experimenting with Wondershare and CreateStudio. Canva Quiz Templates are not as user-friendly and fast as I want, and Canva will allow me to add a GIF or an image, but not a video to a page, thus the reason for the experimentation. I think CreateStudio is going to win. I can create a 'scene' quite easily and quickly, use it as many times as needed, and each time is customizable. I am having fun, and learning a lot, thank you, Terri.
