Description of the On-Time Delivery Service
The On-Time Delivery Service applies to all delivery options, including orders with free shipping. You must check the "On-Time Delivery" box at checkout and provide a valid delivery address when placing an order.

SHEIN Points or promotional wallet credits will be issued to your SHEIN User Account within 2 business days after the missed estimated delivery date (for cash on delivery orders, they will be issued after delivery) and will expire 30 days after the issue date. You can view your points and credits in your SHEIN digital wallet. Please use these points and wallet credits before they expire.
The estimated delivery date is the most recent date range included in your order confirmation email. The date a package has arrived at your address is determined by the tracking information provided by our carrier.
