Subscribing to Amazon Prime is extremely worth it for the multitude of benefits it offers. Not only does it offer free and faster shipping to your home on the e-commerce platform, but it has exclusive discounts, gives access to Prime Video and Prime Music, and even provides a free subscription to Twitch, among many other things. The most profitable fee in the long run is the annual one, but… How can I change my monthly fee for a single payment per year?
Amazon Prime is a success in Spain. The company always offers a one-month free trial, but many end up staying longer because of all the benefits they offer. There are four subscription fees: two of them are available to everyone and the rest are promotions only for students. Regardless of whether or not you can benefit from studying, it is best to opt for an annual subscription.
If you pay 4.99 euros per month (2.49 euros per month if you have Amazon Student), you may be interested in switching to paying 49.90 euros per year (24.95 euros per year with Amazon Student). In this way, you will save 9.98 euros each year (or 4.93 euros if you are a student).
Although the monthly option is very cheap, the annual fee is even cheaper and makes a difference in the long term. There are users who do not change their quota because they do not know how to do so and believe that the process can be laborious, but nothing could be further from the truth. If you have any questions about how to modify your payment preferences, continue reading and we will explain step by step what you should do.
How to go from monthly to annual subscription on Amazon Prime
If Amazon Prime automatically charges you for your membership each month using the payment method provided at the time of subscription, you can change it to an annual fee from now on. The first thing you should do is log in to your Amazon account and go to the “My account” section. In the web browser, you’ll find it by clicking “Account & Lists” in the top right corner; and in the mobile application, it is located in the stick figure icon in the bar below.
From there, you will have access to a wide variety of sections to manage your orders, addresses, digital services, etc. The option that interests us is Prime. Through it, you can manage your subscription to Amazon’s premium plan, check the benefits and configure your payment method. Click “See more plans” on the site that says “Amazon Prime Plan.” In this way, the platform will display the various options and you will be able to choose the annual fee instead of the monthly one.
It should be noted that the change must be made three days before the Amazon Prime payment is to be made. That is, if it is the 5th of the month and you have to pay on the 7th, problems could arise this month. If that happens and you change your monthly rate to an annual rate, it would be charged the following month. However, it is better to make the change now rather than later, so that you do not forget and pay again monthly.
As soon as Amazon charges you through the annual fee, you will have a year in which you can take advantage of Prime benefits without paying a single euro more. That means that if you unsubscribe, you will continue to enjoy its exclusive features until 12 months have passed. From Amazon Prime Video and ad-free songs on Prime Music to free shipping and the best prices on Prime Day.
