“We are writing to inform you that the Prime Invitee Program, which allowed sharing Prime’s fast, free delivery with others, will end on October 1, 2025. Your invited guests will be notified directly about this change by September 5, 2025,” states the notice viewed by CNBC .
This setup still gives families access to popular Prime perks , such as:
- Fast and free delivery on all Prime-eligible items
- Early access to exclusive Prime sales, events, and Lightning Deals
- Prime Video (with ads included)
- Prime Reading library access
- Access to third-party benefits (like Grubhub)
- Digital content such as audiobooks, eBooks, games, and more.
- Additionally, Amazon Music Prime allows sharing with one adult in the household, which allows both adults to enjoy ad-free listening on shuffle mode.
As far as long-time Prime users, the message is clear: if you don’t live together, you will need your own Prime.
