By the tiswa editorial team, from the official sources listed at the end of this guide. How we write our guides
The short answer
- There is no Amazon Prime Student plan on amazon.sa. Prime Student (now called Prime for Young Adults) exists on the Amazon stores in the US, the UK and Europe with a university email there, and is not offered on the Saudi store.
- The offer open to everyone in Saudi Arabia, students included: 3 months at SAR 8 a month, half price, then it renews at SAR 16 a month. You can cancel anytime.
- The annual plan is SAR 140, about 27% less than paying SAR 16 every month for a year.

What Amazon Prime gives you
- Free same-day and next-day delivery on eligible items.
- Free shipping from the US, the UK and Germany on eligible items.
- Exclusive Prime deals, including Prime Day.
- Prime Video: series, films and Amazon Originals.
- Amazon Luna: PC games to claim each month, included with Prime.
Can I get Amazon Prime free?
The official Prime page for Saudi Arabia shows no free period. The offer is half price for the first 3 months. The 6-month free trial you may have heard of is Prime Student on the US and UK stores, and needs a student at a university there. If a free offer appears inside your own amazon.sa account, it comes from Amazon itself and you see it before you confirm.
How to join Prime at the lowest price
- Open the Prime page while signed in and take the new member offer: 3 months at SAR 8.
- Before the third month ends, decide: if you order from Amazon a lot, switch to the annual plan at SAR 140, otherwise cancel from Manage Prime in your account.
- If you only want Prime Video: there is no student plan for Prime Video in Saudi Arabia, and it is included in Prime itself.
Subscriptions that do have a student plan
WitAs a verified student you get YouTube Premium Student and Spotify Premium Student at the student price, and every student deal in the tiswa app. For free tools, see free software for university students.
