Prime for 18-24 Year Olds: 6 Months Free (No Student Email)
You're 18–24 — that's the only requirement. You get 6 Months of Amazon Prime. Free. After that, it's $0 for 6 months, then $7.49/mo.
You don't need a student email or to be enrolled in school. Unlike Prime Student, the Young Adults plan has zero education requirement. No school enrollment. No .edu. Just be 18–24.
It's the full Prime membership, not a stripped-down version. During your 6-month Amazon Prime for Young Adults free trial, you receive the complete Prime membership — not a stripped-down version. Every benefit that a standard Prime member enjoys is available to you from day one of the trial. Nothing is held back.
What's Included? Still Think Prime is Just Shipping?
Still think Prime is just shipping? It's the shows everyone's dissecting on Monday. Live NFL. Ad-free music. Free games every month. All of it — at $7.49/month. You get every benefit, zero exceptions — at $7.49/month instead of $14.99.
Prime Video has all the new releases, cult classics, award-winning Originals, live sports, and more with limited ads. You also get live scores, fixtures and tables for the NFL, NBA, Premier League, Champions League, golf, F1 and more — plus every game streaming on Prime Video.
Eligible 18–24 members get 5% cash back on beauty, fashion, electronics and more, on top of the free 6-month trial. It's a limited-time promo on eligible items and terms apply, so confirm the current details at checkout.
Who Qualifies for Prime 18-24?
If you are 18–24 years old and live in the U.S., you qualify for Amazon Prime for Young Adults. You are 18-24, that is the only requirement. The only question Amazon asks is: how old are you?
You do not need a school email address, you do not need to be enrolled in any educational program. Amazon Prime for Young Adults is enrollment-agnostic. You do not need to be enrolled in a college, university, community college, trade school, bootcamp, or any other educational program.
Amazon verifies your age via self-reported date of birth — the same way you'd verify age for any online service. You sign up with whatever email address is attached to your Amazon account. Gmail, iCloud, Outlook, Yahoo — all accepted, no questions asked.
How to Sign Up for Your 6-Month Free Trial
The entire Amazon Prime for Young Adults sign-up takes under 5 minutes from start to finish. All you need is an Amazon account and a valid payment method — which won't be charged for the first 6 months.
You will not be charged anything during the 6-month free trial period. Amazon requires a valid credit or debit card on file to activate the trial. This is a hold to verify payment, not a charge. Your card will not be debited during the free trial period. If you cancel before the trial ends, you will never be billed at all.
Yes — the Amazon Prime for Young Adults trial auto-renews at the end of the 6-month period. Billing does not start until your 6-month free trial period ends. After your 6-month free trial, your membership automatically renews at $7.49 per month — billed monthly to the payment method you entered at sign-up.
What happens when I turn 25?
The plan converts to full price on your 25th birthday, not a day earlier. You stop being eligible the day you turn 25 — at which point Amazon automatically upgrades your account to standard Prime at the regular rate.
Can I cancel the free trial?
You retain Prime access until the trial period ends — you're not cut off immediately. After cancelling, you will still have access to all Prime benefits through the remainder of your trial window. Cancellation stops the auto-renewal; it doesn't end your current free access early.
