How to participate in SHEIN's free trial program

Shein is a global company founded in 2008, and has been very successful to this day due to its affordable prices and pieces that we cannot find so easily in physical stores. 

But did you know that there is a way to get these items for free, although with limitations? SHEIN has a free trial program, where you can sign up to try out up to three items, 3 times a week.

In return, you will be asked to provide a detailed assessment of your experience with the selected products. It is important to remember that not all applicants are chosen, as there are selection criteria.

What is the SHEIN free trial?

The Free Try-On Program is a platform developed by SHEIN that allows some of its customers to receive free clothing in exchange for detailed reviews about the overall experience, including the quality of the piece, fit, construction of the garment, among others.

Selection is limited and not all applicants are chosen, as there are engagement and evaluation criteria that influence the selection process..

The goal of the program is to help the brand provide detailed information so that other shoppers can make better purchasing decisions based on the product reviews submitted.

Reviews help other users make purchasing decisions and earn you bonus points if the quality of the review is high.

Once approved, you will receive a reward of 20 points. High-quality reviews can earn you up to 100 points, increasing your chances of participating in new tests.

How are participants chosen?

The selection is made automatically by the SHEIN system, taking into account factors such as:

  • Purchase frequency;
  • Number of purchases made;
  • Previous participation in the program and quality of assessments made.

The system prioritizes active customers who are engaged with the brand, and not all registrants are selected.
