TLDR

TikTok rebranded its Pangle ad network as TikTok Ad Network and opened it to U.S. advertisers, letting them extend campaigns across roughly 400,000 apps worldwide.

Digiday reports that TikTok launched its global ad network to U.S. advertisers at Advertising Week New York, allowing marketers to run campaigns across a network of nearly 400,000 premium apps beyond TikTok itself. The rebranded network—formerly called Pangle—aims to let TikTok capture a larger share of advertiser budgets by giving marketers access to audiences outside TikTok's own user base, addressing a core limitation of the platform's native ads business. TikTok did not disclose which apps are included in the network.
