Join Prime Rewards for FREE!

When Amazon got it start in 1994, it was hard to believe that a ragtag team of booksellers working out of Jeff Bezos' garage would one day morph into one of the most powerful and valuable companies in history. Today, Amazon employees over 1.3 Million people, with over 800,000 employees in the U.S. alone and sells nearly $400 Billion worth of product each year. Indeed, packages on the doorsteps of homes across the United States are becoming more and more ubiquitous as time goes by, and the convenience of getting exactly what you want, when you want it, is fast becoming a fact of life for Americans. While the standard Amazon service is perfectly reliable and even quite fast, Amazon's loyalty program, Amazon Prime, increases that efficiency and value, and is considered one of the most successful loyalty programs of all time. In 2018, Amazon Prime crossed the 100 Million member mark and today has more than 200 Million members. It has been said that Prime members outspend regular Amazon shoppers by 4x, which demonstrates how well the program is working for the e-commerce giant. For the annual cost of $119 per year, you can benefit from the many advantages of Amazon Prime, including much faster delivery that can reach you in as little as 2 hours in many cases. You'll also get an ad-free experience when streaming Amazon's rich content, exclusive deals that are just for Amazon Prime members, and early access to Amazon's famous Lightening Deals. Other benefits include access to Prime Music, Prime Gaming, Amazon Photos (where you'll get unlimited photo storage), Prime Reading, Amazon Pharmacy (where you'll save up to 80% on perscriptions), Prime Wardrobe, and Amazon Family (where you'll save up to 20% on diapers, baby food, and other important items). 

Please note that this loyalty program typically works for all your purchases at Amazon, but some exceptions may apply. And while you're exploring Prime Rewards, check out SoLoyal's recent blog post about the Amazon Gift Card Survey.
