Get Your First 3 Months Free

We can all appreciate the aesthetic of a well-curated bookshelf, but buying physical books can quickly get expensive. Switching to an e-reader like a Kindle is a great way to keep devouring new books long after you run out of shelf space. Plus, it can also be more affordable with Amazon’s current Kindle Unlimited deal.

While the deal is live, you can get your first three months of Kindle Unlimited for free, regardless of whether you already have a Prime membership. One month of the service typically goes for $11.99, so you’ll be saving a total of $35.97 with the discount. This promotion is one we’ve seen before, but it’s often exclusive to Prime members, so now’s a rare opportunity for non-members to score the discount.

A Kindle Unlimited subscription gives you access to millions of titles across all genres, from current bestsellers to tried-and-true classics. You can read digital books from the service on a Kindle device, or access them on your smartphone or tablet via the Kindle app. You’ll also gain access to a wide selection of audiobooks through your subscription. Even without the current promotion, the service easily pays for itself if you tend to read multiple books a month.

Keep in mind that this deal only applies to the first three months of your Kindle Unlimited subscription. After that time has passed, your membership will automatically renew at the original price of $11.99, though you can cancel anytime.

Kindle Unlimited deal: Frequently asked questions

When does the Kindle Unlimited deal end?

The Kindle Unlimited deal is live now. Amazon hasn’t yet announced an end date for the promotion, so we suggest signing up sooner rather than later to ensure you get the discount.

Are current Kindle Unlimited members eligible for the deal?

The current Kindle Unlimited deal is only valid for new Kindle Unlimited subscribers. If you’re a current or previous subscriber, you won’t be eligible for the discount.

Do I need to be a Prime member to get Kindle Unlimited?

If you don’t have a Prime membership, don’t worry. You only need a free Amazon account to sign up for Kindle Unlimited.

That said, there are plenty of benefits to becoming a Prime member, including free shipping on Amazon purchases, access to Prime Video, and exclusive deals for Prime Day, which is coming up again next month. If you’re interested in becoming a Prime member, learn more and sign up on Amazon’s website.
