This year, as always, Amazon will be slashing prices on many of its products for Prime members during its Prime Day sales, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday.

There are tons of other benefits, like free one-day delivery, two-hour grocery delivery, premium streaming services, etc., that entice people to sign up.

But how do I sign up for Amazon Prime to get the advantage of all these benefits?

How to Sign Up for Amazon Prime

I’ll assume you already have an Amazon account. If not, go ahead and create one. It’s free.

Once you finish creating your account, click on the “Try Prime” button in the upper left corner of the screen. This will take you to the Prime page, where you can select the plan that’s convenient for you.

Amazon offers a variety of Prime plans

Click on “Try Prime free for 30 days” to get started. You can either sign up for the basic plan for $139/year or $14.99/month, which comes out to $180/year.

The monthly membership does include one month free, though. However, the annual membership is still a better deal.

If you’re a student or enrolled in at least one course in the U.S. or Puerto Rico, you can sign up for Prime Student.

You’ll get a free six-month trial subscription, and after that, you can enjoy this sweet discount of $69 for the annual membership or a monthly payment of $7.49.

If you sign up for the annual plan, you will save $70, whereas if you sign up for the monthly plan, you will save $7.5.

If you’re receiving any government assistance, like Medicaid, or have an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, you can enjoy a $6.99 monthly Prime membership with a free 30-day free trial.

Is your birthday around the corner? Someone kind can gift you a Prime membership for one year ($139) or three months ($49).

With the 30-day free trial, you can take advantage of all the Prime benefits without paying a membership fee for 30 days.

Remember to cancel your Amazon Prime membership before your trial ends if you think It’s not worth it. Otherwise, you’ll be charged.
