We show that the restricted shareability and distribution of multiqubit entanglement can be characterized by Tsallis-q entropy. We first provide a class of bipartite entanglement measures named Tsallis-q entanglement, and provide its analytic formula in two-qubit systems for 1{<=}q{<=}4. For 2{<=}q{<=}3, we show a monogamy inequality of multiqubit entanglement in terms of Tsallis-q entanglement, and we also provide a polygamy inequality using Tsallis-q entropy for 1{<=}q{<=}2 and 3{<=}q{<=}4.
