What is Shein’s Free Trial Center
It’s a space on the Shein platform where we can request free products in exchange for giving our opinion. It’s only available for registered users, if you have not done so yet, click here to register for free.
New products are published every week in the test center. You can request up to three free trials per week. You can also see at any time how many people have requested the same trial and how many items are available.
How the Free Trial Center works
First, you have to enter the trial center section. From the computer you can click here or log in to your account and click on “Free Trial Center”.

Then, you will be asked to select the size and shipping address. If you win, you will not be able to change these details so it’s important to be careful when making the request.
You will also be able to see the reviews of other buyers who have already received their trial, check if you have won a free product or learn more about the conditions of Shein’s trial center.
You will have to make your review within a maximum of 10 days from receipt of the trial. By doing the review (and if it passes the quality check), you will earn 20 points. If it’s marked as quality report, you will earn 100 points.

Hacks to get free stuff
Once you apply, Shein’s selection system will decide who the winners are. You can find all the conditions of the test center at this link. But here are our top tips to give you a better chance of winning.
1. Be patient and always apply
The system takes into account the level of activity you have had in previous tests and on the site in general. So, the more active you are both in the test center and throughout Shein, the more chances you have to win.
2. Select accessible garments
You have a better chance of winning if you request a lot of items that have few requests. But don’t forget that you have to like the garment you receive.
3. Apply at the end of the week
As we have already mentioned, the free trials are updated on Mondays, so there is no problem if you apply on the last day. This will allow you to see how many people have applied for that free trial and figure out which one is easier to win.
4. Make quality reports and comment on your purchases
Making a quality report will not only give you more points, it will also give you more chances to win in the future as it takes into account the quality level of previous reports.
Commenting on the purchases you have received will also increase the chances of winning free trials, because the level of activity also gives us more points when it comes to winning them.
5. Regularly shop at Shein
Your activity level on the site is also taken into account for the selection, so the system rewards those who shop regularly or have been on the site for a long time, to avoid people with fake accounts or people who have been on Shein for a short time from winning.
How to make a quality test report
If you make a good quality test report, you can earn up to 100 bonus points and you will also be more likely to earn more free trials, so let’s go over what you need to do to make the best possible report.
Once you add your commentary, it will go through a quality check to make sure it meets these criteria. If it doesn’t meet them, you can submit a new report.
Type of content
The commentary should include the pros and cons of the article. Don’t cut corners when it comes to explaining the negative parts but don’t forget the good parts either. Try to explain in detail the materials, product quality, colors and other important details of the garment.
Tips on pictures
You have to take some pictures of your proof. You can’t use pictures from other sites or customers. Try to capture the details of the product so that other buyers can appreciate them. It’s recommended to take four photos in bright light:
- One or several full body photographs.
- One or more detail shots of the garment.
- One or more photographs showing how to combine the garment or what you like most about it.
For the report to be uploaded, the images must have a minimum size of 500 x 680 pixels. If you are unable to upload it or you get an error, contact [email protected] as soon as possible.
