FAQ

What else do teams ask about Star Captain tutorials?

Which group of Star Captain tutorials should I start with when setting up Star Captain?

All 34 Star Captain tutorials are organized into 5 groups in the order a new team sets up the workspace: start with Group 1 (Getting started & accounts, 9 tutorials) to connect TikTok accounts via QR code, bulk import new accounts, assign them to staff, register phones and networks, configure account groups and viral threshold settings, inspect account scores, video links, and single-account conversion funnels, and restore deleted accounts or audit activity logs. Next, use Group 2 (Team & daily management, 10 tutorials) to add members, set up departments, set daily targets, assign products and review videos frame by frame, log published posts, and run Personal Center, inbox approvals, and daily reports. Once orders come in, follow Group 3 (Orders & partner brand billing, 6 tutorials) to track daily sales, view performance rankings across products, shops, and staff, filter and export live orders, match orders to partner brands, export statements, and record payments. At month-end, check Group 4 (Costs, payroll & profit, 5 tutorials) for the general ledger overview, daily profit and team profit ranking, account payback, expense tracking, and one-click payroll, and use Group 5 (Product picks, teardown & assistant, 4 tutorials) whenever your team researches products, manages saved folders and viral video rankings, breaks down viral videos, or asks the assistant about workspace data.

Do the Star Captain tutorials screenshots show real customer data?

No — every account, order, amount, staff name, device, and partner brand shown across all 34 Star Captain tutorials is fictional demo data created specifically for these guides, with no real customer information. When you sign in to your own workspace, you'll see your team's live data.

Do the Chinese and English Star Captain tutorials show the same workspace interface?

Yes. Both versions of our Star Captain tutorials follow the exact same workflows and button locations, with Chinese workspace screenshots on the Chinese pages and English workspace screenshots on the English pages.

How often are the Star Captain tutorials updated, and what if my screen looks slightly different?

We update the text and screenshots of our Star Captain tutorials whenever the workspace interface changes, and each tutorial shows its last updated date at the top. Where a left-menu label is shorter than the page heading (such as "Match orders to brands" in the menu versus "Order matching" on the page), the tutorial names both so you can easily find the right spot.

Can I follow these Star Captain tutorials on the Free plan?

Yes. The Free plan starts at $0 with no credit card required (up to 3 members and unlimited TikTok accounts), so you can follow the onboarding, account connection, live order tracking, and role setup Star Captain tutorials right away; tutorials covering partner settlements, account payback, live office, task reviews, and payroll note the applicable plan tier on the page.

How do the 34 Star Captain tutorials differ from the 49 operational guides?

The 34 Star Captain tutorials walk through exact workspace clicks ("where to click → what you see → what to do next") with annotated screenshots each, while the 49 operational guides explain broader agency management formulas, SOPs, and commission workflows. Both sections cross-link to each other.
