When Does Shein Have Free Shipping

If you're an avid Shein shopper like me, you've probably wondered, "When does Shein have free shipping?"

Well, you're in luck because today we're uncovering all the secrets to scoring free shipping on Shein.

From exclusive Sunday deals to live-stream giveaways on Wednesdays, plus a few insider tips, this guide will ensure you never miss another free shipping opportunity. Ready to save big?

Let’s get started!

When Does Shein Have Free Shipping?

Though not known to many, Shein provides shoppers with free shipping deals on Sunday, but there’s a catch. 

You will never know when the free shipping slots open on the site or when they close, but all the orders placed during that time frame, regardless of the price or quantity of your order will be delivered without any shipping fees.

How Does Shein’s Free Shipping on Sunday’s Work?

Only users that have spent hours scouring for the best clothes on Shein are aware of the free shipping program that’s run on Sundays. The only problem is that no one knows when the free shipping slots open or close. 

The thing with Shein is that free shipping on Sundays is more like a deal that’s available on a first come first serve basis. Unless you’re a shopper that sits on the site for hours on end, you will not know when free shipping is active and there are chances that you can miss out on free shipping only by a matter of minutes.

For those of you who have managed to avail the free shipping benefit on Sundays, you don’t have to worry about wondering where to enter a coupon code or how to obtain the free shipping deal. If you’re signed into your registered account then your free shipping reward will automatically get applied on your order.

Does Shein Offer Free Shipping on Wednesdays?

Shein live free shipping

Yes, Shein does offer free shipping on Wednesdays, however, this is not applicable to all buyers as on Wednesdays they host live streams where you can receive prizes that include free shipping coupons. 

These prizes are not provided to all who take part in the stream, but only a lucky handful of viewers will receive a notification during the live stream informing them that they’ve won a prize, this can range from Shein points, discounts and even free shipping.

The live stream is hosted on their mobile app and not the website, so you will have to download the Shein app on your smartphone via the Play Store or App Store and log into your registered account.

One thing you have to remember is that the free shipping code you receive expires within an hour or two from the time you receive it, so you’d have to make a quick purchase if you want to avail your free shipping reward.

How to Get Shein Free Shipping on Wednesdays?

  • Login to your Shein registered account on the mobile app.
  • Go to the Home page and tap on the Join button for Wednesday's live stream.

Once you’re in the stream, at random you’d receive a treasure box pop up on the app. When you click on the Claim button, you will get to see what discounts have been awarded to you. Sometimes this includes free shipping that HAS to be used on the same day, preferably within an hour or two,
