warning TITLE_CONTAINS_SPELLING_OR_GRA

Title contains spelling or grammar errors

What this means

TikTok ad review rejects products with misspellings, broken grammar, or excessive capitalization in the title or description fields.

Why this happens

TikTok Shop / TikTok Catalog Manager validates titles against character limits, casing rules, and content policies — promotional language, all-caps, special characters, or keyword-stuffed titles are rejected.

How to fix it

  1. Trim title to the channel's character limit (most: 150–200 chars).
  2. Use Title Case — capitalize first letters of major words, not entire words. Remove ALL CAPS phrases.
  3. Remove promotional language: 'SALE', 'Best Quality', 'Free Shipping', 'Buy Now', etc.
  4. Format consistently: Brand + Model + Key Specs + Color/Size + Pack.
  5. Re-submit; title updates typically propagate within 1–4 hours.
