# TikTok UGC ads: planning a set to test

TikTok UGC ads are paid ads in the style of the posts around them: vertical, quick to the point and personal in tone. TikTok's own specifications list 9:16 as the recommended vertical size for non-Spark video ads (checked 2026-10-15). AIUGCAdGenerator delivers one campaign of three finished UGC-style video ads, each a vertical 9:16 MP4 of about 15 to 30 seconds. You review them and upload them to your own TikTok ad account.

Get the ads. Then run the test.

## What a TikTok UGC ad is

A TikTok UGC ad is a paid video placed in the TikTok feed that looks and sounds like a regular post: a person or product on screen, a hook in the first seconds, captions and a plain call to action. Advertisers use the style because ads that look like ads tend to be scrolled past.

_A TikTok UGC ad is not the same as a Spark Ad, which promotes an existing organic post. AIUGCAdGenerator delivers new ad files; it does not boost posts or manage accounts._

## What TikTok lists for video ads

| Item | TikTok's specification (non-Spark video ads) |
|---|---|
| Recommended shape | Vertical 9:16, at least 540 by 960 pixels |

| File types listed | .mp4, .mov, .mpeg, .3gp, .avi |
| Length | Up to 10 minutes |
| File size | 500 MB or less |

## How to get a TikTok UGC ad set to test

1. **Brief one product** Paste a product URL or write a brief. Name the hooks or angles you want to compare.
2. **Request a campaign** Choose a plan and confirm the request. One campaign delivers three finished ads.
3. **Review the three MP4s** Check each ad's claims and creative.
4. **Upload and test** Upload the files to your own TikTok ad account, check them against TikTok's current specifications and policies, and set the audience and budget yourself.

## What you receive

- **Three finished ads**: From one product brief, each with a different angle.
- **Vertical 9:16 MP4s**: About 15 to 30 seconds each.

- **You choose what runs**: Download the MP4s, check them, then choose what to publish or test.

## What AIUGCAdGenerator does not do on TikTok

- **Not testimonials**: The ads are UGC-style creative, not customer or creator content, and must not be presented as real endorsements.
