Hey everybody, I was away for 2 months due to personal reasons but now I'm back with a small gift for yall.
99% of you want to target USA on Tiktok. To do so, as we all know a SIM is pretty much mandatory. Now a lot of people either don't want to pay that much for a SIM card or they don't want to wait for delivery (in some parts of the world it can take 2 weeks to deliver a package from the USA).
Well you can pretty much skip the wait by using a US eSIM. Most of you guys probably already tried all the eSIMs you could find on Google like Holafly, Airalo etc. I did that too but guess what, those SIMs even tho they said they are "US eSIMs" still had country codes from Europe and I was hitting only French, Dutch or British For Yous.
Then I found out that the problem is that these eSIMs didn't have a US number binded to them because they were all DATA eSims not VOICE eSims.

Anyway, you can use Tello.com to get a US eSIM along with a US number, make sure you select this plan with No data and 100 minutes because it costs only 5$
Don't worry about the 5$/month plan, you can just cancel the plan and your eSIM will still be installed on your phone, Tiktok doesn't care that your plan expired or is canceled.

Also if you have an iPhone, when you factory reset it, Apple will give you the choice to save the eSIM, so basically it will still be installed even after you factory reset. I don't know if this function exists on Android but if you factory reset it you can generate a new QR code for the eSIM installation in your Tello dashboard.

Another alternative is https://www.usmobile.com/ where they offer a trial but the site is a bit bugged at the part where they check your IMEI, it's gonna say a couple of times that your phone is not supported, just keep trying till it works or use https://www.fakepersongenerator.com/imei-generator#imei-apple to get some random IMEIs (some work some don't just keep trying)

Enjoy targeting USA!
Now this alone might not be enough if you do aggresive methods like CPA, it's a basic start.

Check if your device is compatible with an eSIM:

Hey,

Thanks for sharing. I have no clue why your post isn’t getting more traction.

Would using Tello eSIM suffice to constantly target the US audience? No need for a VPN? Should the account be brand new? Or can I update the old one?

By the way, do you have any tips on dealing with a 0 view shadowban and/or a 500 view cap?

You're welcome, hope it helps :)

In most cases it helps, I was able to target US only with eSIM + my wifi until my iPhone got shadowbanned (I made accounts aggresively and mass uploaded). I haven't tested old accounts so I can't tell.

If you get 0 views, forget about that account, your device has been flagged (people say that a factory reset fixes that but I've done TONS of tests and indeed tiktok can still detect you even if you did factory reset). Most people only focus on IP but forget about device fingerprints. Let's say that I have 10 family members all connected to the same wi fi (IP), if I get banned does it mean that all my family members also get shadowbanned? Of course not, Tiktok engineers thought about that too. I won't make my method to hide fingerprints public but I suggest you look into jailbreaking and rooting.

Also if you get 500 views, that's a good thing, it means u are not shadowbanned, they are just capped because Tiktok was not impressed with the video.
Btw, a device ban is not permanent, so after like 1-2 weeks your device will be "fresh" again
Use Tello coupon "15OFFAFF" for even cheaper ;)

Thanks for sharing it! I really appreciate your answer. Thank you. That helps a lot.

I don’t create accounts aggressively, and neither do I do massive uploads, so this method should still work. I wonder if a physical SIM has advantages over eSIM.

My problem is that it’s not all videos getting 0 views, but just some of them, and very randomly. No swear words, no controversial topics. But I did upload all videos from the desktop using a VPN. Would you say that’s the problem?

If you do normal / whitehat content then eSIM only should work just fine, give it a try. If some videos get views then the account is fine, try it without VPN and see if you get the same results, it could also be because Tiktok doesn't know who to recommend your videos to.
And no, Tiktok doesn't care if you use a physical SIM or eSim.

Wanted to test this out but carrier info stays on: Turn On This Line Activating...

Is this normal?

Can you see your US number under Cellular? Also, you're not gonna get any signal but it doesn't matter for tiktok
 
What is you use US eSIM and IP is of Australia? Will content be shown to US or Australia?
And will eSIM work without VPN in countries where TikTok is banned?

At least 90% of traffic should be from US.
I don't think you can use tiktok without a VPN in a country that banned it since they most likely forced all internet providers to block access to Tiktok.

Do vpn work better than proxy?
 
I would say 4G proxies work best but I had success with VPN too. Again, depends on what you wanna do on Tiktok
I got some from proxyseller it’s not working tbh.
I need it for uploading (not spamming)to 1-2 accounts like a legit user would do .. do u hv any recommendations for proxy?

What exactly is not working? Do you get 0 views? Mobilehop are the best in my opinion but maybe the problem is not the proxy / VPN but your fingerprints, have you been banned before on that device?

Not at all.. it’s my new device , new usa physical sim installed, new proxy. I just got the proxy the other day , created the just 1 account and seen few videos in my niche. The problem is I m not getting enough speed to perform the task though they said it’s high speed and my connection have high speed though. So I guess the problem is just proxy.

Pretty much all 4G/5G proxies have that problem, they are only high speed if you already live in the US but if you are from Europe or somewhere else your ping is gonna be very high. Mobilehop are slightly faster than others, you can rent a proxy for 1 day and do some testing
