Amazon Prime is a paid subscription program from Amazon that gives users access to more services which are unavailable or available at a premium to regular Amazon customers.
Services include same, one or two-day delivery and streaming music and video. In January 2020, Amazon reported that Prime had more than 150 million subscribers worldwide. Prime Video has the animated series Bluey and Hazbin Hotel, Cartoon Network etc.
In the United States and in the United Kingdom, Amazon Prime has a program where members of a family can share Amazon Prime delivery benefits and access to Prime Video.[3][4] In 2025, the program was renamed Amazon Family from Amazon Household, with Amazon making it clear that members are supposed to live in the same household.[5][6] Amazon also ended an earlier Prime Invitee program that had more easily allowed sharing outside the household.[5][7][8] In other countries such as Germany, users can only share delivery benefits.[9][10]
