Audible has a rewards program!

And the savings don’t stop there! Audible also offers an Audible Rewards program where members can earn extra perks just for listening.

You can score rewards through listening milestones, free credits, referral bonuses, special challenges, and even anniversary perks!

Here’s what Hip Sidekick Liza shared after activating it:

“I just opened my app to listen to something for a bit, and there was a pop-up about the new Audible Rewards program. I was given a free $5 bonus just for activating the rewards program, plus you can earn more reward dollars to spend if you listen for a few minutes every day in the month, so it’s an easy way to save on titles if you’re already using the service. And you get a free book on your rewards anniversary every year!”

Audible makes it easy to enjoy more books, even on your busiest days! With the Standard plan, you can choose 1 audiobook each month from a library of over 1 million titles. Prime members can also upgrade to the Premium plan for 2 audiobooks per month. Both plans include unlimited podcast listening and the ability to download content for offline listening, so you can enjoy your favorites wherever you go!

Looking for your next listen? Start with the bestseller The Knave and The Moon or The Calamity Club, survive the apocalypse with Dungeon Crawler Carl, tackle epic adventures like Project Hail Mary, relive a story of love and heartbreak in Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage, and get wrapped up in the character-driven thriller Mad Mabel.

You can even get thoughtful with listens like The Let Them Theory and dive into the bestselling Fourth Wing series!

I don’t know about you, but cooking is way more fun when I have something to listen to! I’ve been using Audible while chopping, stirring, or waiting for things to simmer; it makes the whole process fly by. Bonus: I get to sneak in some “me time” and actually finish a book instead of just staring at the stove. – Krystal, Hip Sidekick


I’ve been an Audible Premium member for years. Not only do you get your choice of one audiobook each month to keep, but with such a large catalog of books included in the subscription, I’m always able to find something I’m interested in listening to! I use it daily, pretty much anytime I’m driving, cooking, cleaning, walking the dogs, and more; I’m listening to a book! – Liz, Hip Sidekick

Note that if you cancel your Audible Standard membership, you will lose access to any monthly audiobook selections, but you’ll regain access to them when you sign back up as a member in the future.

    I love Audible – I’m in school – second go round for me lol- and don’t have a lot of time to sit and read for fun – but I love listening before I go to bed at night and highly recommend Audible! What a great deal!

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      Sounds like Audible has been a great fit for this busy season of life. Wishing you lots of enjoyable listens and good luck with school too! 📚🎧🥰

    Check your library card benefits! My library offers free access to audiobooks and I listen to 1-2 per week. The only downside is that there’s a wait list for popular new releases, but plenty of selection to keep your playlist full until it’s your turn on a new release.

    • Trish (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for sharing this helpful tip, nicole! 💓

    What is the $20 credit used for? I’ve never used Audible before

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      Good question! 🤗 The $20 Audible credit is essentially promotional money you can use toward audiobook purchases on Audible, separate from the audiobook you get to select each month with this membership. ❤️

  4. Keri

    I did this deal BUT don’t see where my $20 promotional Audible credit is located on my account?

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Hey Keri! I did look further into this for you! You should receive an email from Audible notifying you when the $20 promotional credit has been added to your account! 😊 I’d also check your Audible account under Membership Details or Credit Summary after signing up to see your available credits. You can use the promotional credit toward eligible audiobook purchases on Audible.com. It may also show up for you when making those purchases. 🤗

    I just came to say I recently did this deal and they are allowing me to do it again. I received an email yesterday and thought it was an error. However, when I clicked through links, it indeed showed I am eligible. I am going to wait a bit, because I want to use it for a book challenge I will be doing later this Winter. So, if you don’t think you’re eligible, definitely check your emails to see if if they are offering it to you or click through the link here

    • Trish (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for sharing this, Laura! What a fun surprise to be eligible again! 🎉 Great tip about checking emails and clicking through the link, too. Hopefully others can take advantage of this offer again too! 💞

  6. Kellie Z

    For those who can’t afford this great deal Libby is a free app for audio books and ebooks. Get a library card from your local library to use it.
    Go to your library’s website for info how to get a card.
    Great for kids who don’t like to read. Listen to kid audio books when driving.

    • Trish (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks for sharing the details about this option, Kellie! 💗

    Might want to double check the note about losing your monthly selections. If you buy a book and download – it’s yours even if you cancel your subscription. You only lose the books you have borrow in Audible Plus.
