Amazon Cuts Prime to $3.50 for 3 Months as Prime Day Nears

Summary
Amazon is offering discounted Prime memberships ahead of Prime Day, including Prime Access at $3.50 a month for the first three months and $6.99 afterward for eligible assistance recipients.
Young adults ages 18 to 24 can get a six-month free trial, then pay $7.49 monthly or $69 annually—about half the standard $14.99 monthly Prime price.
Both plans unlock Prime Day deals, fast shipping and Prime Video, though discounted tiers cannot be shared through Amazon Household and require identity or benefits verification.
Prime Day runs June 23-26, giving eligible shoppers a narrow window to switch from full-price Prime or sign up before the sale starts.
