If you plan on attending university, you’ll have enough lectures & essays to keep you occupied. You can, however, take advantage of an Amazon Prime Student program to obtain a substantial discount on the membership service.

Here’s all you need to know about Amazon Prime’s additional benefits, including Prime Video.

What is Amazon Prime Student?

This is a variant of Amazon Prime targeted exclusively for students in full-time higher education, as the name implies. Students will be able to use the Prime Video, Prime Music, and Prime Reading services for a reduced monthly charge of £3.99/$6.49 per month. They also get fast and free delivery on anything tagged with the Prime logo in the Amazon shop, 10% off textbooks, photo space on Amazon Drive, and instant access to lightning specials.

Students in the United States have even more incentives, such as Twitch TV membership, Prime Gaming, and the opportunity to rent textbooks.

Free one-day shipping on millions of goods is included with Amazon Prime Student (one-day delivery for UK students, limitless two-day delivery for Republic of Ireland students). Members also gain access to premium material such as music, movies, and TV shows, as well as exclusive deals.

Is Amazon Prime Student available to me?

To sign up for Amazon Prime Student, you must first have an Amazon account or create one. The sign-up process will require a genuine university email address that will be confirmed (ends with “ac.uk” within UK or “.edu” in the US). The registration procedure will also ask for your estimated graduation year or payment method (credit or debit).

You must also be 18 or older, which is a setback for college students, but you imagine the assumption is that they will continue to live at home and profit from your parents’ Amazon Prime membership.

You’ll require your academic email address as well as the ability to verify your status, such as sending a picture of your student ID card, to establish that you’re a current student. You can still apply if you haven’t been given an email address by emailing alternative proof of enrolment at amazon-student-verification@amazon.co.uk.

Scans of NUS Extra and NUS Apprentice Extra cards, a copy of the university or academic body’s letter of enrolment, a tuition bill, or other communication from the college or university proving your student status are examples.

If you’re a student in the United Kingdom, Amazon has a special page you can visit here for more information on the sign-up procedure. A similar page for US students can be found here.
