How to Withdraw Money From TikTok Shop in Malaysia

You can withdraw TikTok Shop earnings once they’ve settled into your Seller Account Balance, using a linked bank account and a 6-digit withdrawal password. The part that trips sellers up is timing: settlement and withdrawal are two separate waits.

This guide explains how to withdraw money from TikTok Shop in Malaysia, including when your earnings become available, how to withdraw them, the fees and processing times, and what to do if your payment is delayed.

Key Takeaways

• Withdraw TikTok Shop money in Malaysia once your sales have been settled and the funds are available in your Seller Account Balance.
• Make sure your seller account, bank account, and 6-digit withdrawal password are set up before requesting a payout.
• TikTok Shop offers both manual and automatic withdrawal options, so you can choose how you want to receive your earnings.
• Bank-transfer withdrawals can take several business days to process, separate from the time your sales take to settle.
• Check the latest TikTok Shop withdrawal fee information before making a payout, as applicable fees may vary.

When can you withdraw money from TikTok Shop?

You can withdraw TikTok Shop earnings in Malaysia once your sales have settled and moved into your Seller Account Balance. Settlement takes 1, 3, 8, or 15 calendar days depending on your shop, and up to 30 days in some cases. Unsettled sales can’t be withdrawn.

Your total sales and withdrawable balance may therefore be different. A sale can appear in your account while the proceeds are still being processed. Once the funds become available, you can withdraw them to your linked bank account using the available withdrawal options.

Before making a withdrawal, check your Seller Center to see how much of your balance is available. If some earnings are still unsettled, you’ll need to wait until they become available.

If your funds are available but you can’t withdraw them, check that your bank account has been added correctly and that the required verification has been completed.

What You Need Before Withdrawing Money from TikTok Shop?

If you’re selling on TikTok Shop in Malaysia, make sure you have these ready before requesting a withdrawal:

• A verified seller account: Your seller details and identity need to be verified in TikTok Shop Seller Center.
• Settled earnings: The funds must have completed the settlement process and be available in your balance. The minimum withdrawal amount is MYR 0.01.
• A linked bank account: You can link up to five valid local bank accounts through My Account > Account Settings > Bank Accounts.
• A 6-digit withdrawal password: You’ll need this password to process a manual withdrawal.

Once these are in place, you can request a withdrawal from Seller Center. If your funds are still being settled, you’ll need to wait until they become available.

How to Set Up Your TikTok Shop Withdrawal Account

You can set up your withdrawal account through the TikTok Shop Seller Center by adding your banking details under Account Settings or Finance.

Add Your Settlement Bank Account

You can add your bank account through Account Settings:

1. Open TikTok Shop Seller Center on your PC.
2. Go to My Account > Account Settings > Bank Accounts.
3. Select Link your Settlement Account.
4. Complete the required identity verification.
5. Select Bank Account on the new page and enter your bank details.

Add Your Bank Account Through Finance

You can also add your account when setting up a withdrawal:

1. Go to Finance > Withdrawals in Seller Center.
2. Select Withdraw or open Auto-withdrawal settings.
3. Click Add bank account and follow the on-screen instructions.
4. Set up a 6-digit withdrawal password if prompted.

After adding your bank account, check that it has been verified before requesting a withdrawal. If your details are incorrect or don’t match the required information, the account may not be approved, and your withdrawal could be delayed.

Does TikTok Shop charge a withdrawal fee?

TikTok Shop’s withdrawal fees can vary depending on the applicable withdrawal policy. Before making a withdrawal, check the latest fee information shown in TikTok Shop Seller Center or the applicable TikTok Shop Malaysia withdrawal rules.

As the available TikTok Shop Malaysia guidance currently differs between withdrawal pages, confirm the applicable fee for your account before relying on a specific amount.

How to Withdraw Money from TikTok Shop Malaysia

With your account, bank details, and withdrawal settings in place, the next step is to request your TikTok Shop payout. Here’s how to withdraw your available earnings, from checking your account to tracking the payment.

Step 1: Make Sure Your Seller Account Is Ready

Before you withdraw money from TikTok Shop, make sure your seller account is fully verified and correctly set up. If anything is missing or doesn’t match, your payout could be delayed.

Here’s what Malaysian sellers need to get right:

• Your seller account is verified.
• Your earnings have been settled and are showing in your available balance.
• Your bank account is linked and verified.
• Your 6-digit withdrawal password is set up.
• Your bank details are correct and match the information registered with TikTok Shop.

Step 2: Link Your Malaysian Bank Account to TikTok Shop

Before requesting a withdrawal, make sure the bank account you want to receive your TikTok Shop earnings into is linked to your Seller Center account.

If you haven’t added one yet, you can link your bank account directly through TikTok Shop Seller Center.

• Go to My Account > Account Settings > Bank Accounts.
• Select Link your Settlement Account and complete the required verification.
• Enter your bank account details and submit them for verification.

You can also add a bank account when setting up a withdrawal by going to Finance > Withdrawals and selecting Add bank account. Make sure your bank details are accurate, and the account is successfully verified.

Step 3: Wait for Your Earnings to Become Available

Before you can withdraw money from TikTok Shop, your sales need to be settled and moved into your Seller Account Balance. A sale doesn’t mean the money is ready to withdraw straight away.

For Malaysian sellers, this waiting period is part of TikTok Shop’s standard settlement process. Your sales go through settlement before the funds become available for withdrawal. Think of it as a simple process:

Sale → Settlement → Available balance → Withdrawal

• Sale: A customer places an order, and you make a sale.
• Settlement: TikTok Shop processes the order and the applicable fees or adjustments.
• Available balance: Once the earnings are settled, they move into your Seller Account Balance and become available for withdrawal.
• Withdrawal: You can then withdraw the available balance using your chosen payout method.

The time it takes for earnings to become available can vary depending on your shop and settlement period. So if a recent sale isn’t showing in your available balance yet, you may simply need to wait for the settlement process to finish.

Once the funds appear in your available balance, you can proceed with your TikTok Shop withdrawal.

Step 4: Choose How to Receive Your Earnings

Once your earnings are available for withdrawal, you can choose between manual and automatic withdrawal. The right option depends on whether you prefer to request each payout yourself or have eligible funds transferred automatically.

Manual Withdrawal

Manual withdrawal means you choose when to transfer your available TikTok Shop earnings to your linked bank account. Instead of waiting for an automatic payout, you can request the withdrawal yourself when your funds are ready.

To make a manual withdrawal, go to Finance > Withdrawals in TikTok Shop Seller Center and select Withdraw. Follow the on-screen instructions and enter your 6-digit withdrawal password when prompted.

Automatic Withdrawal

Automatic withdrawal lets TikTok Shop transfer your available earnings automatically, so you don’t have to request each payout yourself.

You can set it up through Finance > Withdrawals > Auto-withdrawal settings in Seller Center. TikTok Shop’s current guidance states that automatic withdrawals are processed weekly on Wednesday.

Once automatic withdrawal is enabled, eligible funds are transferred according to the platform’s withdrawal schedule.

Manual vs automatic withdrawals

Step 5: Track Your Withdrawals

After requesting a withdrawal, you can check its status in Seller Center > Finance > Withdrawals. This shows whether your withdrawal is still being processed or has been completed.

If you need help with a withdrawal, you can also use TikTok Shop’s support options in Seller Center.

How long does a TikTok Shop withdrawal take?

Once you submit a withdrawal, the time it takes for the money to reach your bank account can vary depending on the applicable TikTok Shop withdrawal policy and your bank’s processing time.

Before you can withdraw your earnings, your sales need to go through TikTok Shop’s settlement process. TikTok Shop currently applies settlement periods of 1, 3, 8, or 15 calendar days, depending on the shop and account. In certain circumstances, the settlement period may be extended to a maximum of 30 calendar days.

For Malaysian sellers, it’s important to separate settlement time from withdrawal processing time. Your payout goes through two stages:

• Settlement: Your sales proceeds become available in your Seller Account Balance.
• Withdrawal processing: Your available balance is transferred to your bank account after the withdrawal is submitted.

If your withdrawal has already been submitted and the expected processing time has passed, check the withdrawal status in Seller Center. If the funds still haven’t arrived, contact TikTok Shop support.
