How to get Amazon Prime for free
Amazon Prime is not something you can keep for free, but there is a trial available that will last 30 days. It does require inputting a payment method, but you can cancel it before the free trial period ends to ensure you don't lose any money.
1. Go to Amazon.com
2. Select Join Prime to go to the Amazon Prime page.
3. Select Start your free 30-day trial.
4. If you're not already signed in, enter your email address and password. If you somehow don't have an Amazon account, now's the time to make one by selecting Create your Amazon account.
5. Now you'll have to input your payment method. Don't worry, Amazon won't actually charge you until your free 30-day trial is up. This means you'll be able to reap the benefits of Prime Day without actually having to spend money on a Prime subscription. It's important that you remember to cancel the subscription before it renews.
Once you've provided a payment method, you're all set! Here are just a few of the deals you can only get with Amazon Prime:
