TikTok has rolled out an exciting new tool to help artists build anticipation for their upcoming projects: Album Pre-save. Through a direct integration with Spotify and Apple Music, TikTok users can now pre-save albums straight from the app, making it easier than ever for fans to stay connected to their favorite artists’ releases.

What Is TikTok Album Pre-save?

TikTok’s new Album Pre-save feature allows fans to save upcoming albums, EPs, or mixtapes directly to their Spotify or Apple Music libraries without leaving the TikTok platform. Once activated, the pre-save link appears globally on the artist’s TikTok music tab, allowing for early fan engagement and helping to drive momentum before release day.

⚠️ Please note: TikTok Pre-saves are currently available only for albums, EPs, or mixtapes – not singles.

How It Works

To activate the feature, please complete the following steps:

  1. TikTok Artist Account
  • Ensure your artist has a TikTok Artist Account with an active music tab. Set one up here.
  1. Set Up Your Pre-save Pages
  1. Contact Us
  • Once your Spotify and/or Apple Music pre-save pages are live, reach out to our team at support@label-engine.com. We’ll handle the TikTok submission process for you.

After your submission is processed, the feature will be live typically within 2 to 5 days.

Who Can Use It?

This feature is currently available for artists with TikTok Artist Accounts based in the U.S. or Canada.
