5 things you might not know about your Prime membership

Amazon Household allows you to connect members of your family to a single Amazon Prime subscription so that as many as two adults, four teens, and four kids under 13 can share the benefits of a Prime membership. Amazon Household members can share free Prime delivery, Prime Video streaming, free books with Prime Reading, early access to Lightning deals, and more. Take note, children can't shop on Amazon, but teens can have their own Amazon login to shop or stream content while still keeping their parents informed.

Enjoy the delivery perks of Prime when shopping elsewhere like at Zappos where you automatically get free expedited shipping on all orders. A fan of Shopbop? You’re in luck there as well—enjoy free two-day shipping and next day shipping at shopbop.com. Prime members also get free standard shipping on all Woot! orders and free express shipping on Shirt.Woot purchases.

Prime members get unlimited full-resolution photo storage, 5 GB for video, and free shipping on prints. Plus, you can easily order printed products or use Amazon Photos to personalize their Echo Show or FireTV.
