How to Download Videos from TikTok: 3 Ways to Save Creatives
TikTok ranks among the top three traffic sources for affiliates. Campaign moderation is still lighter than on FB, but as more media buyers enter the ad network, the rules are gradually tightening.
Today we'll talk about how to download creatives from TikTok and what tools you can use to adapt them for traffic campaigns.
3 Ways to Download TikTok Videos
TikTok has a library of videos that have been used in ad campaigns. The catalog mostly features videos with strong audience engagement metrics. You can use them as a reference or take the content and cut it up to build your own creatives.
In general, TikTok Ads Library is a valuable source of intel for affiliates. For example, a search for "casino" returns nearly 300 videos complete with view counts, CTR, budget levels, and other metrics.
On the ad page you can view the destination site and other useful stats. FB offers far less information by comparison. TT has moved well ahead in this regard and can easily replace a SPY service.
There are several ways to download videos from TikTok. The first is using browser extensions to unlock the right-click menu. By default, the context menu doesn't appear when you click on a video, but the restriction can be bypassed with Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy or similar tools.
Once right-click is unlocked, simply play the video, open the context menu, select "Save video as," and you're done. The clip is ready to use in your creative.
The second method comes in handy when you need to download a TikTok video from the feed rather than from TikTok Ads Library. Many videos come with a watermark, which gets in the way when assembling creatives. To download TikTok videos without a watermark, you can use dedicated sites: SSStik, Savefrom.net.
The third way to download TikTok videos is through dedicated Telegram bots. They work similarly to web services but are more convenient since you never have to leave the messenger interface. Most of these bots push Russian ads, so the only one we can recommend is TikTok Watermark Remove Bot. Keep in mind that the watermark isn't always removed successfully.
How to Put Together a Video for Organic Traffic and Ad Campaigns
Shooting a unique video for a specific offer is the ideal scenario. But not every affiliate has access to a studio or the budget to commission content from creative specialists — in the latter case, prices start at $100.
Most affiliates build their creatives using desktop software and online tools. In gambling, a winning combination is typically a mix of stream clips and slot interface footage. You can put together this kind of video with zero editing experience.
The market offers dozens of online editors and specialized video creation tools. With built-in templates and straightforward interfaces, you can produce 3–5 videos in a short amount of time.
A selection of useful tools:
Below is an example of a video we put together quickly in just a few minutes. With more time invested, the result can be significantly better. Some services offer a free trial during which you can download videos without watermarks.
When it comes to content for organic traffic, things are even simpler. No animations or special effects are needed — just cut the original footage and put together a reasonably clean edit.

If you'd rather not spend time creating videos yourself, it's better to hand the work off to a professional creative. You'll get a solid result for $10–15 and can easily recoup the cost with a high-converting funnel.
