Cancel Shein: Easy Method
What is Shein
Overview
Shein is an online fashion retailer that sells clothing, accessories and home goods through its website and mobile app.
It operates internationally and ships to New Zealand customers through the Shein NZ site and app.
Services
Shein offers product listings, order management (My Orders), returns and refunds mechanisms, and a Shein Wallet for credits and refunds.
Orders are placed via the web or app and processed for shipping; cancellations depend on shipment status.
How to cancel Shein
Cancel before shipment
Orders can be cancelled only if they have not yet shipped.
Cancellation is typically available within 24 hours of placing the order through your account.
Cancel after shipment
Once an order has shipped, cancellation through the site/app is no longer available.
If shipped, you must wait for delivery and then return items under Shein's return policy.
- Open the Shein NZ website or app and sign in to your account.
- Go to My Orders, find the order you want to cancel, and choose Cancel Order if the option is shown.
- Attempt cancellation within 24 hours of placing the order for the best chance it has not yet shipped.
- If cancellation is unavailable because the order shows as shipped, wait for delivery and start a return under Shein's returns process.
- Refunds are issued to the original payment method or to your Shein Wallet, depending on the situation.
What happens when you cancel
Order processing and shipment
If cancellation is successful before shipping, processing is stopped and the order will not be dispatched.
If the order has already shipped, cancellation through the order screen is not possible and return procedures apply.
Account and data
Cancelling an order does not delete your Shein account or stored data; account access remains intact.
Refunds and order records remain associated with your account for reference and any follow-up enquiries.
Will I get a refund?

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Non-excludable guarantees
Under New Zealand law, goods come with non-excludable guarantees that cannot be overridden by store terms.
For major failures, consumers are entitled to a refund or replacement and possibly compensation for foreseeable losses.
Minor failures and right to remedy
For minor failures, the seller must remedy the problem within a reasonable time; if not fixed, you can request a refund or cancellation.
Shein also provides a 14-day commercial right of withdrawal and a voluntary 30-day return window for many items.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many customers praise Shein for low prices, wide product variety and acceptable quality on some items.
Some users report reliable deliveries and prompt refunds for missing or incorrect items.
Common complaints
Frequent negative reports include delayed or missing deliveries, order cancellations, and slow or missing refunds.
Customers also note inconsistent pricing, complex returns and sometimes limited or AI-only customer support.
Documentation checklist
Before cancelling
- Order number and order date.
- Account email and payment method used.
- Screenshot of the order status showing "not shipped" if possible.
If returning or requesting a refund
- Proof of delivery or tracking number for the returned parcel.
- Photos of the item if damaged or incorrect.
- Copies of any communications with Shein support (dates and reference numbers).
- Bank or card statement snippet showing the original charge (redact sensitive info).
Common mistakes
Mistakes before cancelling
Waiting too long to request cancellation - Shein typically allows cancellations only while the order is unshipped, often within 24 hours.
Assuming the option will remain available after the order moves to "shipped" status can cause disappointment.
Mistakes after cancelling
Failing to keep proof of the cancellation attempt or relevant order screenshots makes disputes harder to resolve.
Not checking whether refunds go to your original payment method or to Shein Wallet can lead to confusion.
