TikTok LIVE allows creators and moderators to interact with viewers through comments, making it useful for sharing important information such as contact numbers, payment details or event information. Learning how to pin a number on TikTok LIVE can help keep an important comment visible to viewers during the broadcast. TikTok provides LIVE comment-management features for creators and moderators, although the options available can vary by account and LIVE setup.
-
Start Your TikTok LIVE
First, open TikTok and start your LIVE session.
You need to be the LIVE creator or have the appropriate moderation permissions to manage and pin comments.
- Open TikTok
- Tap the plus (+) button
- Select LIVE
- Start your broadcast
-
Post the Number as a Comment
Once your LIVE has started, type the number you want viewers to see into the comment section.
For example, you could type:
0712 345 678
You can add a short message before the number to explain what it is.
-
Find Your Number in the Comments
After posting the number, locate your comment in the LIVE comment section.
If there are many comments appearing quickly, you may need to look through the comment feed to find the number you posted.
-
Try to Pin the Comment
Press and hold the comment containing the number.
If the pinning feature is available for your LIVE, a menu should appear with an option to pin the comment.
Select Pin or the available pinning option.
The comment should then remain highlighted or visible to viewers for easier access.
-
Use a Moderator if Necessary
If you are hosting a LIVE with moderators, an authorized moderator may be able to help manage comments.
Give the moderator the number and ask them to post it or manage the relevant comment if the option is available on their account.
TikTok’s LIVE comment features can vary depending on the account, permissions and current app version.
-
Check That the Number Is Visible
After pinning the comment, check the LIVE screen to make sure the number is displayed correctly.
Ask a trusted viewer to confirm that they can see it if necessary.
- Check the pinned comment
- Confirm all digits are correct
- Make sure the number is easy to read
-
Consider Other Ways to Display the Number
If you do not have a pin option, consider displaying the number in your LIVE title, profile information or another supported LIVE feature.
You can also repeat the number in the comments when appropriate, provided it follows TikTok’s rules.
-
Avoid Posting Sensitive Information
Be careful when sharing personal information during a LIVE.
Avoid posting passwords, banking PINs, one-time passwords or other confidential information. If the number belongs to another person or business, make sure you have permission to share it publicly.
