Acceptance Testing Guidelines

After completing development and debugging of your mini game, you are encouraged to self-conduct acceptance tests on functionality, capability integrations, and performance in accordance with these guidelines to ensure your mini game meets the submission review criteria.

After affirming that the review criteria are met, you must submit the final version of your mini game for review through the Developer Portal and select the regions for launch. Your mini game will only be launched once it passes our review.

Platform release review

We are committed to creating a safe and friendly environment on the TikTok Minis platform. Our release review process is divided into two parts:

Safety Moderation: Your mini game must not contain any content that violates bottom-line requirements such as promotion of illegal goods, pornography, violence, or hate speech, and must protect youth safety.
Non-Safety Moderation: We will evaluate your mini game experience and mandatory capabilities (such as performance, dual-end loading, core functions, payment, protocols, and walk-through tests of open capabilities) to ensure users have a complete and smooth experience.

The overall review time is 1-3 working days. Results will be communicated to you via Developer Portal notifications and email. After your mini game receives approval, you can click the Release button in the backend to complete the app launch.
