Collins, 31, has only started twice for the Potters this season and played 16 games in a loan spell at Ipswich earlier in the campaign.
“West Ham are going well in the league and looking for promotion,” the Wales international told the club website.
“They are having a good season so this was a chance for me to come out on loan and get some games in.”
He continued: “I went out on loan to Ipswich earlier this season and played 16 games there and I’ve played a few games for Stoke, but I want to be playing week in, week out if I can.
“Hopefully I can come down here, get myself into the team and be part of it.”
Collins, who can play at centre-half or left-back, joined Stoke City from Sunderland for £2.75m in August 2009 and has made a total of 60 appearances for the Premier League side.
