Ways to get Amazon Prime benefits for free, without paying, for up to 1 year
Amazon Prime allows all users to get free and unlimited shipping, very short delivery times (1 day), early access to the best offers and access to Amazon Prime Video content, with a great selection of movies and TV series to watch at no additional cost on Smart TVs, smartphones and tablets.
Many users do not activate Amazon Prime because they want to save on the annual subscription cost, perhaps because they place few orders or do not use Amazon Prime Video.
For all the skeptics or for users who want to try Amazon Prime without spending a penny, you have come to the right guide: in the following chapters, we will show you how to get Amazon Prime for free, get a trial period for Amazon Prime lasting 1 month, lasting 3 months or even up to a full year of Amazon Prime gift, taking full advantage of the free trial periods offered by Amazon itself and taking advantage of the promotions reserved by some mobile phone operators.
Amazon Prime free for 1 month
The easiest way to get Amazon Prime for free is reserved for all users who sign up for the service for the first time: the first 30 days are offered by the site, so we can access all the benefits without paying anything.
To proceed, open the page seen in the link above, press the Sign up button and use it for free for 30 days, enter the login credentials of our Amazon account (if we do not yet have an account we can create one on the fly), choose one of the methods of payment already used previously (or insert a new prepaid PostePay card) and confirm the activation of Amazon Prime, so you can immediately start benefiting from unlimited free shipping, and other privileges reserved for those who subscribe to this subscription.
There is no obligation to renew: before the expiry of the 30 days we open the personal Amazon Prime page again, press the Update, cancel and more items and press the button End your membership to cancel Prime before it becomes paid.
Amazon Prime free for 3 months
If we are university students (therefore enrolled in one of the many faculties in Italy) we can benefit from 3 months (90 days) of Amazon Prime for free, by directly accessing the promotion page.
Once on the promotional page, press the Subscribe button – 90 days at no additional cost, enter the email address provided by the university we are enrolled in, indicate the expected graduation year in the drop-down menu Year of completion of studies, enter an of the payment methods we intend to use (a prepaid card such as PostePay is fine too ) and finally press the Subscribe button again – 90 days without additional costs to finish the registration. After 3 months we can choose whether to renew the subscription or cancel it, so as not to pay anything.
This promotion cannot be combined with the free Prime month seen in the previous chapter: since we use the university email it is not possible to insert a traditional email and we cannot benefit from other months of free Prime.
Amazon Prime free for 12 months
If, on the other hand, we aim to have Amazon Prime free for more than 3 months, the only way to do it is to sign up for a subscription with an Italian telephone operator: operators often include 12 months of Prime among the conditions on offer. At the time of writing, the operator offering 12 months of Amazon Prime is WindTre, as visible on the official promotion page.
With the WindTre Absolute offer, we can have unlimited Internet (on fibre optics or ADSL), unlimited calls and 12 months of Amazon Prime included at the price of € 22.99 per month, by signing up for a new online subscription. If interested in the offer, press the Check availability online button, enter the address of our home and, if we are covered, press Check and then click Continue to fill in all the required fields and thus subscribe to the fixed Internet subscription at home…
As soon as we are registered with WindTre we will have access to our personal page, from which it is possible to redeem the voucher to activate Amazon Prime for free for 12 months.
In this case, we can combine the 12 months of free Prime with the 3-month offer reserved for university students and the free Prime month offered to all new customers: we only have to take advantage of one of the previous offers and, before the trial expires free, redeem the Amazon Prime voucher received from the telephone operator, so as to be able to extend the time with which to take advantage of Amazon Prime for free to 13 months (if we used the free trial month) or even to 15 months of free Prime subscription (if we took advantage of the 3 months offered for students).
Conclusions – amazon prime free trial 3 months
Taking advantage of Amazon Prime for free is possible and we must not even use shady or illegal methods, since the same company offers trial periods for all new customers, for university students or for those who sign a contract to activate a new Internet line (at some accredited operators).
If we aim to have a longer trial period, all we have to do is activate the offer for students and, after 3 months, redeem the operator voucher, so that we can use Amazon for another 12 months without paying anything. If we are not university students we can always use the 30-day trial included for all new accounts or subscribe to the Internet subscription for home, in order to get Amazon Prime free for 12 months..
