How to Get Amazon Prime
As the name describes, Amazon Prime Day is limited to those Amazon members who have an Amazon Prime membership. If you do not have a Prime membership, your best bet is to sign up for a free trial. It will give you 30 days of free prime access.
However, if you want to purchase a full membership, the cost is currently $139 for the year. Alternatively, you can also pay by the month — 14.99 per month — which might be a better option if you are looking for a membership only during Amazon Prime Day, during Black Friday/Cyber Monday and throughout the holiday period.
For a full membership, TopCashBack is offering members $15 cash back by signing up through their site. Or, if you happen to have a student e-mail address, you can get an Student Amazon Prime membership for half price or a free 6-month trial membership.
