Amazon Prime Day will arrive in July with days of exclusive offers and discounts for Prime users of the online store. Although there are still two weeks left for these days, you can register your account now to be prepared and enjoy all the advantages. If you do not know how, we will explain step by step how sign up for Amazon Prime And what should you keep in mind when doing it.
Being an Amazon Prime customer allows us to have exclusive offers and discounts, as well as free shipping. But it also gives access to a series of extra benefits and included services such as Prime Music to listen to free music, Prime Video with hundreds of movies or exclusive series, or Prime Reading to access ebooks.
Plans and prices
Amazon Prime has two types of plans if we want to sign up: pay month by month or pay for a full year. One month is priced at 4.99 euros and one year is priced at 49.90 euros per year. The permanence depends on the one you choose, of course. If you pay for the month you will have a stay of 30 days and if you pay for the year you will have a stay of twelve months. You can cancel whenever you want and you will continue using it until this contracted period expires.
But the most interesting thing is that it has a free trial period of 30 days without any cost or permanence. This means that you will not have to pay anything if you want to enjoy Prime Day 2023. You just have to use the free trial period to sign up and access the exclusive days of discounts and offers. When this period is over, you decide if you want to continue and enjoy all the benefits it includes (music, ebooks, movies, series…) or if you want to unsubscribe and stop paying the Amazon Prime subscription.
How to register
Signing up is very simple and will only take a few minutes… We explain step by step what you should do or how you should do it to enjoy the free trial. Of course, you should keep in mind that you have to use an email that has not previously had an Amazon account. If not, you will have to make the account and pay a month of subscription.
- Go to the Amazon Prime website
- Tap on “Start my free trial period”
- A login menu will appear
- Go to the bottom of the screen and look for “Create your Amazon account”
- Fill in the data: name and surname, email, password, confirm password
- Tap on the “Create your Amazon account” button
- You will receive a code in your email
- Copy the code and create the account
Once you have done this, you will already have access to Amazon. In order to sign up you will have to enter a payment method that allows you to pay in the online store but also keep your subscription if you do not cancel it. Tap to add a credit or debit card or a bank card and follow all the steps indicated on the website. When you have entered the payment method, you will have signed up for Amazon Prime and you will have 30 days to use it at no cost.
You will only have to wait until July 11 and 12 to enjoy Prime Day 2023 and start collecting everything you want to buy at a discount during those days. If you are not sure whether or not to continue using the account, you can cancel the subscription until you decide.
How to cancel the account
If you are clear that you are only going to use it during these days and nothing else, you can cancel the account immediately to avoid an automatic renewal the following month. The steps are very simple and you can manage the subscription from the web. We tell you how.
- Open the Amazon website
- Touch in the upper right corner: Account and lists
- Open the web drop-down menu and several options will appear
- Your account will open and a series of sections
- Tap on “Prime”, on the right side, as you see in the screenshot
Once here, at the top of the web page we will find everything that interests us about our Prime subscription: The type of plan we have contracted, the renewal date and a button to manage subscription. You have to go to the last section and click on it. Doing so will open a menu with two different options. You can choose to end the subscription at that time or have Amazon send you a reminder three days before the renewal. If you are clear that you want to cancel it, tap on “end subscription”. If you are going to think about it a little more, check the box “send me a reminder three days before the renewal date”. So you can decide when the time comes and not now.
If you tap on “end subscription” you can continue using the account until the expiration date arrives. It is a good option if you are clear that you want to cancel Prime and do not want to forget it. Once we cancel, we continue to have the right to use it until the date of the month or year (depending on what you have chosen) arrives.
