Want to save more on your Shein orders? Shein Points are the secret to scoring extra discounts.
In this guide, we'll cover everything you need to know about earning and using Shein Points, so you can maximize your savings and get the best deals on your favorite styles.
What are Shein Points?
Shein points are a loyalty-based rewards program that allows you to collect points after every purchase on Shein.com or their smartphone app. You can then get these points converted into discounts and have them applied to your future orders on the site.
Shein points are calculated as 100 Shein points = USD $1, and there are numerous ways you can collect points apart from simply placing orders.
The points you receive will have a specific validity or timeframe within which they can be redeemed. The more points you earn on the site/app, the higher the discounts will be.

There are a number of ways you can collect points. Below are the main methods and what you’ll receive for each.
Register your Email
Registering your email address on Shein.com or the mobile app will instantly grant you 100 points that carry a validity of 4 months. Create a new account on Shein and verify your email via the newsletter. Once confirmed, the account linked with that email will automatically receive 100 points.
