Watching the streaming platform is included in the Amazon Prime membership, including a basic version of Amazon Music and early access to lightning deals. Other benefits of Amazon Prime include free one-day delivery on many items purchased on the website.
As of right now, Amazon Prime costs 36 euros a year or 3,99 euros per month, with the option of a free trial of 30 days for new subscribers. However, if you are a student, you can use Amazon Prime Student, which has a price of 18 euros per year and offers a free trial period of well 90 days.
If you use an iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV, you can access Amazon Prime Video independently from Prime. In this case, the platform costs 3,49 € per month (the first 30 days are free), with direct debit on the payment method linked to the Apple ID configured on the device.
In any case, it should be emphasised that some channels related to external services are excluded from the Prime plan, such as Infinity, STARZ PLAY, Juventus TV, MUBI, and Midnight Factory are accessible through Prime Video but require separate subscriptions to access the relevant content.

How to get free Amazon prime video activation:
Connect to Amazon, log into your account (or create one), and activate the 30-day (or 90-day, if you’re a student) free trial of the Amazon Prime service to access Amazon Prime Video for free.
Remember that the selected When the current subscription period expires, it will be promotional time; thus, you must cancel the automatic renewal of Amazon Prime within 24 hours of the promotion’s natural expiration to prevent paying unnecessary fees after the trial month.
Tablet and smartphone:
Follow the methods I’ll give you below, which are applicable for Android, iOS and iPadOS, to activate Amazon Prime Video on smartphones and tablets.
Android:
The quickest way to join up for the service is through your browser, where you can also start the free trial of Amazon Prime. To do this, open Google Chrome or, in any other scenario, the device’s web browser connected to amazon.com, click the Login button to access your account and then enter your Amazon profile credentials.
If you still need to sign up for an Amazon account, click the Create an Account button, enter your name, phone number (or email address), and password to access the service, and then click the button. Verify the entered info once more (by typing, in the appropriate field, the confirmation code received via email o SMS). I recommend reading my tutorial on creating an Amazon account if you need assistance with this process.
iPad and iPhone:
There are two ways to proceed for iPhone and iPad: either by activating a new Amazon Prime subscription or by only subscribing to the Amazon Prime Video service (therefore excluding all other Prime benefits), which, at the time this guide was written, cost 3,49 €/month with a free trial period of one month and direct debit on the iTunes Store.
Suppose you choose to go with the first choice. In that case, you must follow the same procedures as those for Android. After completing the registration process, visit the Prime Video app using the login information for the Amazon account linked to Prime.
On the other hand, if you only want to subscribe to Prime Video, follow these steps: Install the app on your iPhone or iPad (for instructions, see my tutorial on how to do it, click here), hit the Create a New Account button, enter your name, email address, and password to log in to the service, then tap the Create Your Amazon Account button to finish. You must now input your cellphone number in the relevant field, click NEXT, and enter the SMS verification code to complete the identification check.
