Why is Amazon Prime so popular, how to get a badge without being a member of the FBA program , and who should really spend money on it? Everything you wanted to know about the service from the perspective of a buyer and seller.
What is Amazon Prime?
This is an internal paid subscription that provides access to various services. In particular, program participants receive:
the fastest FREE delivery possible (up to 2 days);
access to Amazon Music (over 2 million songs, tracks and podcasts);
the ability to watch tens of thousands of TV series and movies with Prime Video;
free e-books for Kindle (over 800 thousand);
discounts on prescriptions at 60,000 pharmacies (including Walgreens, CVS, and Amazon Pharmacy);
subscription to one selected Twitch channel (can be changed every month);
free games;
cloud storage space for photos.
Plus early access to sales and exclusive discounts on Prime on page seo service Day (an annual 2-day event for members only).

The list of "goodies" is constantly growing.
In total, the savings are quite significant, especially if you order from Amazon at least a couple of times a month. It is not surprising that there are more than 200,000,000 (!) Prime members.
How much does an Amazon subscription cost?
The next very relevant question is: how much does Prime cost? At the time of writing, we have the following figures: $14.99 per month of use or $139 per year (which is almost $41 cheaper). However, the figures are constantly changing, Amazon likes to "pamper" users with price increases and usually does this a couple of times a year.
On the plus side, every new user gets a free trial period for a month. But be careful, if you forget to turn it off, $14.99 will be charged automatically.
Are there any discounts on Prime?
Yes, there are separate discounts for students and people on social programs. You can also use Amazon Household (family subscription), that is, share all the benefits between 2 adults and create up to 4 children's profiles.
How to cancel a subscription?
Log in, select your account in the upper right corner and go to the Prime membership menu item.
How can a seller get the Amazon Prime badge?
If you work on the FBA model (fulfillment, sending goods to the warehouses of the trading platform for their further sale), then the icon will appear in your listing automatically. You do not need to do anything additional.
Do sellers pay for the badge?
We answer another common question: how much does Prime status cost for a seller?
It's absolutely free (again, only for FBA participants).
Is it profitable for sellers to “be in Prime”?
More than. According to various sources, 80% of buyers will choose a seller with a badge, because it = fast free delivery = high level of trust.
How to become an Amazon Prime member for those working on the FBM model?
If you organize logistics yourself, have multiple warehouses in different locations and are confident that you can quickly process orders (so that they are already with the buyer within 1-2 days), then you can take part in the Seller Fulfilled Prime program .
It is not always available, most likely the site will offer you to fill out an application and join the waiting list.
