How to sign up for Amazon Prime

Just like Amazon Prime Day, you need to be a Prime member to get access to the offers available during Prime Big Deal Days. If you're already signed up, then you're all set, and offers will be available to buy once they go live on October 7 – and pick up any surprise early deals.

If you're new to Amazon Prime, then you can sign up for a 30-day free trial to get access to the deals during Prime Big Deal Days. This option is only available to new subscribers or those returning to the service after a long time. Just be sure to cancel it before the month ends to avoid being charged.

If you're not eligible for the free trial, then Amazon Prime costs $14.99/£8.99/AU$9.99 per month. Alternatively, students and young adults aged 18-22 can get a six-month free trial or 50% off a membership, making it just $7.49/£4.49 per month.
