Calling all Amazon Prime members!

Did you know Amazon Prime members (Not a member? Sign up for a free 30-day trial here!) can enjoy unlimited FREE access to Audible Channels found within the Audible App for Android, iOS, and Windows 10 devices? With Channels you can listen to original audio series and handcrafted playlists, as well as a rotating selection of more than 50 audiobooks from Audible’s catalog!

Audible Channels

Every day, Audible editors will create insightful and engaging playlists drawn from news, comedy shows, articles, talks and more plus new original programs will be introduced regularly. Amazon Prime members will be able to easily access these Channels by downloading the FREE Audible App on your mobile device, logging in with your Amazon account information and then clicking on the Channels tab.

If you’re not a Amazon Prime member, please note that Audible Channels are available to purchase for $4.95/month or are included with a full Audible membership. This seems like a great freebie for Amazon Prime members, so consider signing up if you haven’t already!

Have you signed up for Audible?

If you’re not an Amazon Prime member and are thinking about becoming one, be sure to read below for even more perks AND benefits…

Amazon Prime Perks Hip2SaveSure, Amazon Prime seems to have some great perks, but do you wonder if the $99 price tag is worth it? Some of these compelling benefits of an Amazon Prime subscription may just make the decision to sign up a little easier. And keep in mind that you can sign up for a FREE 30-Day Amazon Prime Trial here.

Also, if you’re looking to score Amazon Prime benefits for only certain times of the year (i.e. during the holidays or special occasions), don’t forget about Amazon’s monthly payment options! Amazon Prime is now offering the option to pay just $10.99/month for full Prime benefits OR $8.99/month for Prime Video.

AMAZON PRIME BENEFITS

Prime Now

Prime Now

So you may know that an Amazon Prime membership comes with free two-day shipping, but did you know that in select areas you can get your items in two hours? And for an additional $7.99, you can speed up that instant gratification to get your order in just one hour! The service is available from early morning to late evening in over 25 U.S. cities, with over 25,000 available items.


Free Same-Day Shipping

Free Same-Day Shipping

Even if your item isn’t available for free two-hour shipping, you may be able to take advantage of free same-day shipping. If your item is eligible, same-day shipping is available in nearly 30 cities and their surrounding areas, and you can expect to receive your order by 9 p.m.


Amazon Household

Amazon Household

With Amazon Household, you can share digital content and many features of your Prime membership with another adult. Set up a Family Library, which allows you to link two Amazon accounts and add profiles for up to four children so you can share eBooks, audiobooks, apps, and games. You’ll have to share your wallet (your Amazon payment info) with the other adult you link accounts with, but splitting the cost of membership can be a great way to make the subscription more affordable.


Amazon Family

Amazon Family MembershipA godsend for parents, Amazon Family gives Prime members 20% off of diapers when you use Subscribe & Save, a 15% discount on Amazon Baby Registry completion, and exclusive coupons and limited-time deals. Also, for as low as $2.99 per month, you can get access to Amazon FreeTime Unlimited, which offers books, educational apps, games, movies, and TV shows just for kids.

Speaking of the Amazon Baby Registry, did you know about all of these perks?

Amazon Baby RegistryIf you’re expecting or know someone who is, head on over to Amazon to create a FREE Amazon Baby Registry. You’ll be able to easily add products to your registry, making it simple for friends and family members to shop for you.

Baby Registry Perks

Baby Registry* 20% off all diaper subscriptions

* FREE welcome box filled with goodies for your little one! To receive your welcome box (valued at up to $35), create a baby registry and follow the steps required to receive the box.

* Ability to add products to the registry from any website


Prime Video and Add-On Subscriptions

Prime Video

You may be familiar with Amazon’s video-streaming service, which offers thousands of available movies and TV shows, Amazon Originals, and HBO’s entire back catalog of programming. But did you know that for an extra fee you can also add subscriptions to Showtime, Starz, and curated channels for more specific content, like History Channel’s Vault, Lifetime Movie Club, and Smithsonian Earth? You can even download selected titles on your compatible mobile devices to watch offline, which is a first for any major digital streaming service.


Prime Exclusive Savings in Video Games

Amazon Prime for GamersGot gamers in the family? Amazon Prime members get 20 percent off physical copies of video games from the pre-order period through two weeks after the game’s release. This is an especially good deal considering how difficult it is to find discounts on newly released games.


No-Rush Shipping Credit

Amazon Prime Shipping CreditsPatience is a virtue, and Amazon will reward you for it. If you don’t need your item quickly, choose “No-Rush Shipping” at checkout and receive a promotional credit toward a future purchase. There are specific limits on what you can use the credit for, depending on what you bought, but you can snag a credit for each order you give Amazon extra time to fulfill.


Unlimited Cloud Photo Storage

Unlimited Photo Storage Are you always maxing out the photo storage on your devices? Your Amazon Prime membership includes access to unlimited photo storage, with no restrictions on how many photos you can store or upload per month. Sweet!


Prime Music

Prime Music Rocking out while you’re cleaning the house requires good music. Prime Music offers unlimited, ad-free access to tons of songs, playlists, and even entire albums.


Free Kindle eBooks and Kindle First

kindle-first

Here are a couple of great features for all the bookworms out there: If you own a Kindle device, you’ll have access to a library of hundreds of thousands of eBooks you can borrow for free, with no return due dates or late fees. And with Kindle First, you can download one free eBook per month — and read it in advance of its release date — from a selection of Editor’s Picks, no Kindle device necessary.

If you don’t have a Kindle, keep in mind that you can still read books on your computer or other mobile devices with the FREE Kindle Reading Apps found here.


Prime Pantry

Prime Pantry Want to make fewer trips to the grocery store? For a flat delivery fee of $5.99 per box, you can have grocery, household, and pet care items shipped anywhere in the contiguous United States.

    Thank you I didn’t know about it

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re so welcome!

  3. Patty

    I have Prime and I also pay for audible. How can I take advantage of the free audible through my prime membership? Do I have to cancel Audible? Will I lose my purchased audiobooks or can I combine it with the audible from Prime?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Hi there! The Audible offer is for those who are new to Audible. Hope this helps!

  4. Maggie

    Secret Prime Perk: 6 mo. free subscription to the Washington Post Digital Edition (and then discounted monthly cost after that — I think it’s $6/mo thereafter).

  5. LINDA S.

    Thanks Collin! I had no idea.
