Frequently asked questions
The stuff everyone asks before their first free box. Still stuck? We're at the bottom of the page.
Is this actually free or is there a catch?
It's actually free. Brands pay us to get their products into real people's hands — market research is expensive, and shipping you a serum costs them less than a magazine ad. You pay shipping (€4.49–€5.99 depending on the box), we pay the brands, everyone wins. The only "catch" is that stock is limited, so boxes genuinely do run out.
What's the deal with the subscription?
When you claim a free box, we set up an optional subscription so you can keep receiving boxes monthly. Your first box is free (shipping only). After that, boxes are €24.90 each including shipping. If you don't want the next one, cancel in your account — it's two clicks, no phone call, no "are you sure?" maze. Full details in our terms and cancellation policy below.
How long does shipping take?
2–4 working days in Germany, 4–8 working days in the rest of the EU. We ship from Köln with DHL. You'll get a tracking link the moment your box leaves our warehouse (our warehouse being a slightly too warm room full of shelves, but the tracking is real).
Can I pick what's in my box?
Mostly no — the surprise is part of the deal for the brands. You can tell us allergies and preferences at checkout though, and we honour those religiously. Nobody wants a nut-heavy snack box landing on a nut-free doorstep.
Why only one box per household?
Because of Stan from Bremen, who ordered eleven beauty boxes under increasingly creative names back in 2024. Since then: one per household. Thanks, Stan.
Can I return a box?
If something arrives damaged, send us a photo within 14 days and we'll ship a replacement or refund your shipping. Unopened boxes can be returned within 30 days for a refund of the shipping cost. See our cancellation policy for the fine print.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Log in, open "Subscriptions", click cancel. Done. Or email support@sendfreetrials.com with the subject line "stop" and your order number, and we'll do it for you — usually the same day. German customers also have the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal; details in the legal terms.
Do you ship outside the EU?
Not yet, sorry. UK and Switzerland are coming in 2027 if customs paperwork doesn't break our spirits first.
Still need help?
A human reads every message. Usually the same human replies, too.
