TikTok Shop: Image contains watermark
Image rejected: watermark detectedWhat's happening
TikTok Shop rejects images with watermarks, brand logos overlaid as decoration, or text covering more than ~10% of the frame. The rule is enforced more strictly than Meta's. Listing tier drops to "Poor" and ad delivery is suspended.

Re-shoot product photos without watermarks, or commission a designer to remove them in post. Re-upload all affected images, wait for TikTok to re-validate.
Fix it with Emberfeed
