SUMMARY
TikTok offers two main ad formats: Spark Ads and Non-Spark (Regular) Ads. Spark Ads promote existing organic content while retaining original engagement metrics, making them appear more authentic. They allow full user interaction including likes, comments, and profile visits. Non-Spark Ads are traditional advertisements created in Ads Manager with full creative control but lack social proof. Studies show Spark Ads achieve 134% higher completion rates, 157% higher 6-second view-through rates, 43% higher conversion rates, and 142% increased engagement compared to regular ads.

SUMMARY
TikTok Spark Ads use existing organic posts with authorization, keeping original engagement visible and maintaining native feel with up to 64% higher click-through rates. They support native TikTok interactions like Duet, Stitch, and clickable music, building brand trust through organic content amplification. Regular Non-Spark Ads require separate video creation, offer high customization but appear more advertisement-like with lower engagement. Spark Ads are ideal for authenticity and creator partnerships, while regular ads suit campaigns needing full creative control.

SUMMARY
TikTok Spark Ads leverage organic content for higher engagement and conversion rates compared to regular In-Feed ads. Spark Ads use existing TikTok posts from brands or creators, maintaining authenticity and native feel. They retain all original post features like likes, comments, shares, and profile visits, offering wider metrics tracking. Regular ads are uploaded directly to Ads Manager, feel less authentic, have limited interaction options, and generally achieve lower engagement and conversion rates compared to Spark Ads.
