Tiktok is the fourth most used social media platform in Vietnam, with the penetration of 75.6% of total Internet users aged 16 to 64.
That penetration rate means 39.91 millions users aged 18 or above, according to ByteDance’s advertising resources.
TikTok ads are able to reach 55.4 per cent of all Internet users and 40.5% total population in Vietnam. This number places TikTok among the most attractive social networking platforms for the advertising industry.
Early 2022, 53.5% of TikTok’s Vietnamese ad audience was female and 46.5 percent were male.
While Facebook remains the most popular social media platform overall, TikTok is gaining popularity among young people as a place to watch short videos.
TikTok is now used by 50% of Vietnamese Gen Z for short-video content, whereas it was only 12% in Q1 2020. However, TikTok’s popularity has been slower among Gen X and Millennial users.
