Will Amazon Prime be more expensive? - All the info

In many millions of households, Prime membership has long been the standard. As the features become more numerous over the years, the question is whether Amazon Prime will become more expensive.

Prime became 20 percent more expensive in the U.S. - Germany could soon follow suit.

Amazon Prime has been around in Germany since as early as 2007. Since then, the benefits have been expanded more and more. At the same time, however, the service has also experienced repeated price increases.

Will Amazon Prime become more expensive?

Amazon Prime already had free, fast shipping in 2007, making the price of 29 euros a year worthwhile for many customers. When more features like Prime Video were added, the price rose to 49 Euo a year.

• The most recent price increase came in 2017. Since then, customers have been paying 69 euros a year, or 7.99 euros a month.
• So you can save if you pay the subscription once a year. But in return, you lose the option to cancel monthly.
• The price increase was mainly justified by the fact that, in addition to the delivery benefits, the video service, Prime Music, Prime Reading, Prime Gaming and other features were added.
• It is not yet known whether the price will increase again in the next few years. It can be assumed that better conditions should also be pending before a price increase.
• So only when relevant new benefits come, it may be that Amazon Prime will be more expensive again.

In addition, it is also worthwhile to take a look at the US from time to time. The last price increases were first introduced in the US and months later in Germany.
