Free shipping will also be available on all eligible orders1 over $10. The Wishmas shopping event marks the first in a series of major shopping events planned this year.
“With Spring finally here, we’re excited to be launching our first ‘Wishmas’ shopping event to help our customers save big on their favorite items,” said Joe Yan, CEO of Wish. “We’ve partnered with our merchants to come up with more than 500,000 deals at a variety of price points. Whether it’s a birthday treat or an everyday essential, we have something for everyone.”
More than 500,000 discounted items will be available during the 7 days of Wishmas, with each day highlighting a different category:

“The merchandising events we have planned for 2023 will help strengthen Wish’s position as a destination for Home and Life products - offering a broad variety of high-quality and unique lifestyle products at affordable prices,” concluded Mr. Yan.
The Wishmas shopping event will be supported by brand and performance marketing campaigns running in each of Wish’s key markets - the U.S., Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Italy and the U.K..
The launch of Wishmas falls on the heels of Wish announcing the introduction of flat rate shipping last month. Flat rate shipping is available on all eligible orders2 in each of Wish’s key markets. The move is part of a broader effort to improve the shipping experience on Wish which has in recent months, seen a dramatic improvement in on-time delivery rates and a significant reduction in Time to Door (15 days in key markets)3.
