Frequently Asked Questions

Up to 4 years from the start of your Prime Student subscription, or until you graduate, whichever is sooner. After that you go onto the standard Prime rate. You can re-verify each year if Amazon prompts you to.
Both qualify. Apprenticeships and many sixth-form colleges issue .ac.uk emails that work for verification. If you don't have one, Amazon also accepts photos of an enrollment letter or student ID with proof of date.
Same core benefits, just at half the price, with a longer initial trial (6 months vs 30 days), and a few extra student-only perks like the 10% textbook discount. The catalogue and feature set are identical otherwise.
