The official TikTok app is unavailable in certain countries due to regional restrictions, leaving merchants unable to connect TikTok to Shopify for campaign tracking and conversion analytics.
Attempted Solutions:
Manual pixel installation with event tracking was tried but unsuccessful
Third-party app PixelTok by Adtrace was identified but remains untested
Suggested Workaround:
One user recommends manually implementing TikTok Pixel tracking by:
Inserting pixel code directly into the Shopify theme.liquid file
Using Google Tag Manager as an alternative
Adding event triggers on checkout/thank you pages
Verifying server-side event support before using third-party apps
Status: The issue remains unresolved with no confirmed working solution reported by the original poster.

Like many others facing this, Unfortunately, the Tiktok App in the Shopify store is not compatible with my country. I understand this is a limitation by Tiktok and Shopify support can’t help in this. However, my question is: Did anyone figure out an alternative way to connect Shopify to Tiktok?
I want to be able to track the campaigns I am running, Purchase CONV RATE ROI, etc…
I found an app on the Shopify store but am not sure if it works. (PixelTok: TikTok Pixel) From Adtrace.
TikTok tracking can be implemented manually without the official app by placing your TikTok Pixel code directly in your Shopify theme or via Google Tag Manager. Insert the base code into theme.liquid and the event triggers on the checkout or the thank you page. Like Adtrace’s PixelTok, check that it supports server-side events before installing.
