The Prime membership that brings extra benefits and access to its OTT platform is probably one of the best things offered by Amazon. It has a whole suite of features that include priority shopping and delivery services along with access to the OTT platform called Prime Video, which is among the top media viewing platforms in India. Among other things included is also Prime Music which is a premium music repository.
The Prime membership is quite affordable as well. The yearly variant of the membership is priced at Rs 1,499 and there is also the option to get it for three months at Rs 459. Although the service can be subscribed for from Amazon itself, a lot of telecom operators are offering the membership as part of their plans either for free or at a major discount. Let’s take a look at these plans.
What is Amazon Prime?
Amazon Prime is a special membership offered by the e-commerce giant that brings some interesting benefits. The Prime membership comes with a price tag of Rs 1,499 per year. Furthermore, there is also an option of a quarterly plan that is priced at Rs 459. Apart from this, you also have a Rs 179 monthly plan. The Prime Lite plan is available for Rs 999. However, it makes more sense to go with the Rs 1,499 annual plan as it is much cheaper than the quarterly pack.
Coming to the benefits, with Prime membership you will get free one-day, two-day, express, and free scheduled delivery on eligible products and addresses. Furthermore, you can get a free standard delivery option with a Prime membership with no minimum order. Apart from this, you can access Prime Videos, Prime Music, Prime Reading, and Prime Gaming.
