Amazon launches monthly Prime membership at Rs 129

Bangalore: Amazon India has launched a new monthly subscription plan for its Prime members. Amazon Prime has been priced at Rs 129 per month, and offers the same benefits as the annual plan.

Customers who prefer to pay annually, can continue to sign up for the annual plan for Rs 999 per year, Amazon said.

Prime is Amazon’s membership program, where for a subscription fee, members can enjoy unlimited Video streaming on Prime Video.

In India, the subscription includes unlimited access to movies, TV episodes, Prime Music, early access to select Deals and more.

“We are excited to launch Prime monthly membership and offer more payment flexibility to customers. Customers are used to paying for a lot of services on a monthly basis – be it their rent, electricity and mobile bills, and we want to offer this same convenience for Prime. Monthly plan members enjoy all the same benefits as annual plan members do – free & fast shipping on millions of items, Exclusive deals on top products, the best Bollywood and International titles on Prime Video, and Ad-free streaming of millions of songs on Amazon Prime Music” said Akshay Sahi, Director & Head of Prime, Amazon India.
