What if you are already a Prime member and you’re also a college student? Amazon allows current Prime members to convert to Prime Student memberships beginning with six months free. The four-year countdown includes both the free trial and paid membership months. Prime Student memberships last up to four years or until your graduation date, whichever comes first. Regular Prime members pay $12.99 a month or $119 per year, so the Prime Student plan is discounted 50%. The annual plan is the better deal because it equates to $4.92 a month. After six months, your default payment method (a card you’ve registered with Amazon) is billed $6.49 each month (plus taxes) if you chose monthly payments when you signed up, or $59 a year. The Prime Student membership trial is six times as long as a regular trial membership, but once the trial period ends the student membership fee is only half as much as the regular membership annual or monthly fees. Note that unlimited music streaming is not included during the trial period, but if you continue as a paid Prime Student member, then music streaming is part of the package.

Amazon is also promoting a 30-day trial Prime membership, but the Prime Student trial lasts for six months and continues at a reduced monthly or annual rate for up to four years.ĭuring the 6-month trial, Prime Student members get free two-day shipping, unlimited movies and TV shows on Prime Video, unlimited reading on any device, free unlimited photo storage, and free same-day delivery in eligible areas.
