It’s official: the 10th annual Amazon Prime Day will take place on July 16 and 17th, but you don’t have to wait to start shopping Prime Day deals. A new offer on Audible, available exclusively for Amazon Prime subscribers, will save you over $40 over three months.
Of course, Amazon is known for incredible year-round deals, but this specific Audible deal only tends to come around a few times a year (think Black Friday), and Prime Day is definitely one of those times. For a limited time, new and eligible returning Audible subscribers can take sign up for an extended three-month free trial of Audible Premium Plus — which basically means you’ll get three audiobooks of your choice for free over three months.

You’ll need to be an Amazon Prime subscriber if you want to take part in next month’s sales bonanza, anyway, so why not sign up now and save on Audible, too? A Prime membership costs $14.99/month or $139/year, and in addition to access to exclusive deals, you’ll gain access to free books on Prime Reading, the Prime Video streaming service, and so much more.
Audible Premium Plus
For $14.95/month, Audible Premium Plus includes one credit per month to “buy” any audiobook the platform has (often at a discount as most are priced above $14.95). Additionally, there are thousands of included titles that don’t require credits, including Audible Originals, select podcasts, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How Do I Access My Free Audible Books on Amazon Prime?
The easiest way to access your Audible Books is through the Audible app for iOS and Android! If you sign in with your Amazon Prime log-in info, you’ll immediately gain access to the books you’ve bought, used credits on, and saved to your Audible library.
dditionally, if you own a book on both Audible and as an e-book through the Kindle store, the Kindle Paperwhite has support for Bluetooth audio devices so you can listen and read at the same time.
Is Audible Free with Amazon Prime?
Unfortunately, Audible is not one of the free perks of an Amazon Prime membership, so you’ll need to pay for the Audible membership on top of the Prime subscription to listen to use credits and listen to audiobooks. However, select audiobooks are included with Prime Reading that are free to Prime members.
