Your account likely performs better at lower budgets because the algorithm optimizes more efficiently with smaller, focused spend.
Suddenly increasing the budget can reduce delivery quality and engagement, causing fewer conversions.
To scale, gradually raise the daily budget in small increments while monitoring performance closely.

Learn how to scale vertically and not horizontally.
From $20/day, you can move to $30/day and then $40/day.
It is only on few platforms like Google that you can scale anyhow.

That’s normal with TikTok, scaling too fast resets learning and kills conversions. Best way is gradual increases or cloning campaigns to keep stability. There are also setups to keep results consistent even at higher spend, depends on how your account’s structured.

It’s not really your account’s problem. It’s about budget scaling and optimization. At $50/day, TikTok may have pushed delivery too fast, hitting less qualified users. At $20/day, the algorithm has more stability and finds cheaper conversions.

In addition to increasing your budget, you need to pay attention to your customer target and geographic scope, try changing the geographic location to see if it is more effective. But tiktok is mainly young people and your short videos need to be humorous, highly entertaining and trending, the better.
In addition, you can refer to and test advertising on Facebook - where there is a more diverse audience, so the ability to reach your products will be better.
Wish you many orders in the near future.

This is why; You started off too big with the budget and it didn't allow the algorithm to learn slowly and blend with your preference. Anytime you're running ads no matter how big the returns you're aiming at, always start off with a low budget and increase subsequently

That’s actually pretty common. When you scale too fast, the algorithm tends to “re-learn” your audience and messes up delivery for a few days. Lower budgets often keep the same optimized signals, so performance looks better.
Try increasing gradually — like +20–30% every few days instead of doubling it overnight. It helps TikTok’s learning phase stay stable.

I’ve had a similar situation before. When you jump from $20 to $50+ too quickly, TikTok usually resets the ad learning process, so it needs time to reoptimize.
The key is to scale slowly and let the system re-learn step by step. Also, make sure your conversion pixel and audience data are still consistent when scaling up.

May i ask you more about that brother? Im having somee issues running tiktok ads with replica and actually im having really inconsistent results, im trying to scale pretty hard surfscaling the campaigns during the day every 2 hours, but my resuklts are really inconsistent, but at the same time i can't afford to maintain low budgets for days becaus ei need to scale pretty hard fast (and some months ago it was working pretty good actually). What would you suggest to do?
Also, what do you mean when you talk about setups that can maintain rresults and conversions even at lower speding? If i May ask

Do you mean scaling incrementally during the day or every day scaling a little?

At higher budgets like $50/day, TikTok can deliver ads quickly to a wider audience, which can lead to poor click-through rates and conversions. Lower budgets allow the algorithm to optimize better by focusing on more relevant and engaged users, resulting in cheaper conversions. You can try increasing your budget slowly, from $20 to $25, $30, $35... to test.
