Whether you currently own a PooLin machine or another brand of sewing or embroidery machine, you may apply for the PooLin Upgrade Program.
There is no need to trade in or return your current machine. Once you submit your machine information and valid proof of ownership and your application is approved, we will email you a personalized purchase link based on the type of new machine you selected.
1. Upgrade Offers
Your upgrade offer is determined by the type of new PooLin machine you plan to purchase:
- New Machine Category: Eligible PooLin single-needle embroidery machines — Exclusive Upgrade Offer: 8% OFF
- New Machine Category: Eligible PooLin multi-needle embroidery machines — Exclusive Upgrade Offer: $150 OFF
The upgrade offer is calculated based on the product’s current sale price when your personalized purchase link is created.
Selected machine bundles may also qualify. Eligible models, bundles, and final prices will be shown through your personalized purchase link.
2. Eligibility
Applicants must meet the following requirements:
- Currently own a sewing or embroidery machine from PooLin or another brand;
- Provide valid proof of machine ownership;
- Plan to purchase an eligible new PooLin machine;
- Use the same customer information and email address provided in the application when placing the order;
- Have not used the PooLin Upgrade Program within the past 12 months.
There is no required upgrade path between your current machine and the new machine you select. You do not need to return, trade in, or stop using your current machine.
This program is intended primarily for individual customers and small creators. It is not available for resale, dealership purchases, or unapproved bulk orders.
3. Proof of Ownership
You may submit any one of the following:
- An order confirmation, receipt, or invoice for your current machine;
- An order screenshot showing the machine brand or model;
- A clear photo showing the brand, model, or full appearance of the machine.
If you only provide a machine photo, we may ask you to include a handwritten note showing your name or email address and the application date to confirm that the photo belongs to you.
If the submitted materials are unclear, incomplete, or insufficient to confirm ownership, we may request additional information.
4. Application Results
Approved
We typically email the application result and personalized purchase link within 1–2 days after submission. Reviews may take longer on weekends and holidays.
Additional Information Required
If the submitted materials are insufficient, we will email you with a request for additional information. Please respond within seven days. Applications may be closed if we do not receive a response within that period.
Not Approved
An application may not be approved if:
- Valid proof of machine ownership cannot be provided;
- The submitted information is false, incomplete, or inconsistent;
- Online images, another person’s documents, or other invalid materials are used;
- The same machine proof has already been used by another account;
- The applicant has already used the Upgrade Program within the past 12 months;
- The application is intended for resale, dealership purchases, or unapproved bulk orders;

5. Using Your Personalized Purchase Link
- Once approved, your personalized purchase link will be sent to the email address used in your application;

- The link is valid for 14 days from the date it is sent;
- Each personalized purchase link may be used to complete one order only;
- Each approved application may be used to purchase one eligible machine or one qualifying machine bundle;

- The customer and email information used at checkout must match the application information;
- If the link expires, you must contact us to reconfirm your eligibility, product availability, and price;
- A personalized purchase link does not reserve inventory. If the selected product sells out, you may need to wait for a restock or select another eligible model.
If you would like to change the machine or bundle selected in your application, please contact PooLin before placing your order so we can confirm the change and provide a new purchase link.
