I'll answer in English first, and then provide a complete explanation in Chinese (中文解释) below.

Answer in English

The cost of TikTok varies greatly depending on whether you're a viewer, a creator, or a business/advertiser.

For Viewers (TikTok Users)

For the average person who just watches videos, TikTok is completely free.

App Download: Free on the App Store and Google Play.
Browsing Videos: Free.
Liking, Commenting, Sharing: Free.
Basic Account Creation: Free.

The only "cost" is your time and attention, as the app is designed to be highly engaging.

For Creators (TikTok Video Makers)

For individuals creating content, the platform is also free to use.

Creating and Posting Videos: Free.
Access to Creator Tools: Basic analytics, effects, and sounds are free.
Live Streaming: You can go live for free.

However, there are optional costs to enhance your channel:

TikTok Coins (虚拟币): This is the main in-app currency for creators and viewers.
- For Viewers: You can buy Coins to send as virtual gifts to your favorite creators during their live streams.
- For Creators: Creators can receive these gifts and later cash them out for real money.
- How much do Coins cost? (Prices vary by region, but here's a general idea):
  - 65 Coins ≈ $0.99 USD
  - 330 Coins ≈ $4.99 USD
  - 1320 Coins ≈ $19.99 USD
Promoting Your Videos (To Get More Views):
- You can use the "Boost Post" feature to pay to have your video shown to a wider, targeted audience. This is essentially a mini advertising campaign.
- Cost: You set your own budget, starting from as little as $5 USD / ~¥35 RMB. You pay per view (e.g., $0.01 to $0.05 per view).

For Businesses & Advertisers (TikTok Ads / 抖音广告)

This is where significant costs come into play. To advertise on TikTok, you need a TikTok Ads Manager account. The cost depends entirely on your goals and strategy.

Here are the main advertising options and their cost structures:

Ad Type	How it Works	Cost Structure
In-Feed Ads	A video ad that appears in the "For You" page as users scroll.	Auction-based (CPM/CPC). You bid against other advertisers for ad space. You pay per 1,000 impressions (CPM) or per click (CPC). Costs can range from $5 to $50+ CPM.
TopView Ads	The first video a user sees when they open the app. It's a 3-second, unskippable takeover.	Premium and expensive. Usually sold as a fixed-price package for a specific time slot or guaranteed number of views. Costs can be in the thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.
Brand Takeover	A full-screen image or video that appears for a few seconds when the app opens.	Premium and expensive. Similar to TopView, it's often sold as a fixed-price package for a specific geographic area.
Spark Ads (火花广告)	You boost your existing TikTok video (organic post) to turn it into an ad.	Auction-based (CPM/CPC). Same as In-Feed Ads. This is a great way to test content before creating new ads.
Hashtag Challenge (话题挑战)	A branded campaign that encourages users to create videos using a specific hashtag and sound.	Very high cost. This is a large-scale investment that includes a "Branded Effect" (AR filter), a landing page, and significant media buying to promote the challenge. Costs can easily start at $50,000 - $100,000+ USD.

General Cost Factors for Ads:

Industry: E-commerce and Finance are more expensive than, for example, non-profit or education.
Target Audience: Targeting users in the US or Europe is generally more expensive than targeting users in Southeast Asia.
Ad Quality: High-quality, engaging ads often have a lower cost-per-result.
Ad Objective: Driving traffic is usually cheaper than getting "App Installs" or "Conversions."

中文解释 (Chinese Explanation)

抖音的花费取决于你的身份：普通观众、内容创作者，还是企业/广告主。

对于普通观众 (TikTok Users)

对于只刷视频的普通用户来说，抖音完全免费。

App下载： 免费。
观看视频： 免费。
点赞、评论、分享： 免费。
基础账号注册： 免费。

唯一的“花费”是你的时间和注意力,因为抖音的设计就是为了让你沉浸其中。

创作者 (TikTok Video Makers)

平台本身也是免费使用的。

创作和发布视频： 免费。
使用创作者工具： 基础的数据分析、特效和音乐都是免费的。
直播： 你可以免费开启直播。

为了提升你的账号，有一些可选的“花费”：

抖音虚拟币 (Douyin Coins): 这是创作者和观众之间主要的虚拟货币。
- 对于观众： 你可以购买虚拟币,在喜欢的创作者直播时送给他们作为礼物。
- 对于创作者： 创作者可以收到这些礼物，并 later 将它们提现成真实的钱。
- 虚拟币多少钱？ (价格因地区而异，但大致如下):
  - 65个硬币 ≈ 0.99美元
  - 330个硬币 ≈ 4.99美元
  - 1320个硬币 ≈ 19.99美元
推广你的视频 (获得更多曝光):
- 你可以使用“推广”功能，付费让你的视频被更广泛、更精准的受众看到,这本质上是一个小型的广告活动。
- 花费： 你可以自己设定预算，最低从5美元/约35元人民币起，你按观看次数付费（每次观看0.01到0.05美元）。

对于企业和广告主 (TikTok Ads / 抖音广告)

这是产生显著花费的地方，要在抖音上做广告，你需要一个巨量广告（Douyin Ads Manager）账户,花费完全取决于你的目标和策略。

以下是主要的广告类型及其花费结构：

广告类型	如何运作	花费模式
信息流广告	视频广告出现在用户的“推荐”信息流中。	竞价模式 (CPM/CPC)，你与其他广告主竞标广告位，你按千次曝光付费或按点击付费，费用范围通常在5到50美元+ CPM之间。
开屏广告	用户打开抖音时看到的第一个视频，通常是3秒不可跳过的。	高端且昂贵，通常作为固定价格套餐出售，用于特定时间段或保证曝光量，花费可能高达数千到数万美元。
品牌专区	在用户打开App时出现的全屏图片或视频广告。	高端且昂贵，与开屏广告类似，通常作为特定地理区域的固定价格套餐出售。
Spark Ads (火花广告)	你将现有的抖音视频（自然帖文）进行推广，把它变成一则广告。	竞价模式 (CPM/CPC)，与信息流广告相同，这是在制作新广告前测试内容的好方法。
话题挑战赛	一个品牌活动，鼓励用户使用特定的标签和音乐创作视频。	花费非常高，这是一项大规模的投资，包括一个“品牌特效”（AR滤镜）、一个落地页，以及大量的媒体采买来推广这个挑战，花费很容易从5万到10万美元+起步。
