Your Details

Overview

This TikTok Ad Cost Calculator helps you estimate campaign reach, clicks, conversions and cost per result using your planned budget, CPM, click-through rate and conversion rate. It is useful for setting expectations before launching or adjusting a TikTok ad campaign.

How it works

The calculator starts by estimating impressions from your budget and CPM, where CPM is the cost for 1,000 impressions. It then applies your click-through rate to estimate clicks and your conversion rate to estimate conversions. Cost per click is your total budget divided by estimated clicks, and cost per acquisition is your total budget divided by estimated conversions. Daily budget is calculated by spreading the total budget over the number of campaign days.

Estimated Impressions

With a $1,500 budget, $7.50 CPM, 1.5% CTR and 4% conversion rate over 30 days, the campaign would estimate about 200,000 impressions, 3,000 clicks and 120 conversions. That works out to roughly $0.50 per click and $12.50 per conversion.
