How Much Is Amazon Prime Video per Month in Australia in 2026?

Updated: October 2026. By Ziling Liu, Personal Finance Editor.

At the time of writing, Amazon Prime Video in Australia comes with an Amazon Prime membership, which Amazon lists at $9.99 per month after a free 30-day trial for eligible new members. If you pay yearly, Prime Annual is listed at $79 per year, about $6.58 a month. The same membership also covers free delivery on Prime eligible orders, Amazon Music Prime and Prime Reading. Check amazon.com.au/prime for the current price before you sign up.

ShopBack Australia is a free app and website that gives you money back when you shop or sign up online at thousands of stores, including Amazon Australia and Amazon Prime Video. You start from ShopBack, shop or sign up as normal, and part of what you spend comes back to your account as cash. You can join free at shopback.com.au/signup.

Amazon Prime Video price in Australia: monthly vs yearly

The price of Prime Video in Australia is the price of Amazon Prime. Amazon's Australian Prime page lists two plans at the time of writing:

Plan	Listed price	What it works out to	Best for
Prime Monthly	$9.99 per month	$119.88 over 12 months	Watching one season, trying Prime, or joining around a sale
Prime Annual	$79 per year	About $6.58 per month	Keeping Prime all year

Yearly saves $40.88 over 12 months if you would otherwise stay on the monthly plan all year. Monthly makes sense if you want Prime Video only while a show you follow is airing, because Amazon says you can cancel anytime.

Both plans start with a free 30-day trial for eligible new members. Prices can change, so check the official Amazon Prime page on the day you join.

Amazon Prime Video in Australia in 2026: what you get

Amazon describes Prime Video in Australia as new releases, award-winning Amazon Originals and live sports, streamed with limited ads. You can watch on your TV, tablet, phone or on the web, and download many titles to watch offline on supported devices.

A couple of things are worth knowing before you sign up:

• Prime Video is part of Prime. Amazon's Australian Prime page lists Prime Video as a Prime benefit, so the monthly or yearly Prime fee is what you pay to stream.
• Some films are rented or bought separately. Prime Video may offer some titles to rent or buy at their own price, outside what your membership covers.
• Catalogue changes. Titles come and go, so check that the show you want is on Prime Video in Australia before you join.

The category in one line. Australians usually weigh Prime Video against Netflix, Disney+, Stan, Binge, Kayo Sports, Apple TV+ and Paramount+; our streaming savings guide covers how to keep the total bill down.

What the official Amazon Prime membership includes

Amazon's official membership in Australia is called Amazon Prime, and its benefits are set out on amazon.com.au/prime. At the time of writing, Amazon lists:

• Fast, free delivery with no minimum purchase on Prime eligible orders, in as fast as one day in some areas. Amazon notes this excludes select remote areas.
• Prime Video, with new releases, Amazon Originals and live sports.
• Amazon Music Prime, with music and top podcasts ad-free.
• Prime Reading, a rotating selection of over a thousand e-books, comics and short works.
• Amazon Luna, with PC games to claim each month.
• Member deals, including 30-minute early access to Prime eligible lightning deals and access to shopping events like Prime Day.

Amazon Prime is a paid membership rather than a points programme. You do not collect points on Prime itself; the value comes from the delivery, entertainment and member pricing.

Is Amazon Prime worth it in Australia?

Amazon Prime is usually worth it in Australia if you will use both the delivery and the streaming. A simple way to decide:

• You order from Amazon Australia often. Free delivery with no minimum on Prime eligible orders can cover much of the fee on its own, and Prime Video comes with it.
• You only want streaming. Compare Prime Video's catalogue with the services you already pay for. Prime Monthly lets you join for a season and cancel.
• You shop big sale events. Prime members get early access to lightning deals and member events like Prime Day, which matter most if you plan big purchases around them.

If you are a light user, a good pattern is to keep Prime only in the months you need it: join for a show or a sale, then cancel before the renewal date.

How ShopBack fits into Prime Video and Amazon orders

For merchants like Booking.com, Trip.com, Agoda and Expedia, going through ShopBack is an essential step before you book or check out, so you pay less on the same booking or order. Amazon works the same way: start from ShopBack before you sign up or check out, and ShopBack works like an automatic cash discount on your online order.

ShopBack Australia gives you cashback, and cashback lowers what you actually pay for an order. It comes back as cash, so it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles.

There are two ShopBack pages to know, and they do different jobs:

1. Signing up for Prime Video: start from the ShopBack Amazon Prime Video page. Check the rate shown on that page and its Terms. At the time of writing, those Terms say only AU/NZ subscriptions qualify, and that it applies only when you continue your subscription after the free 30-day trial.
2. Ordering on Amazon Australia: start from the ShopBack Amazon Australia page before you add items to your cart, then check out in that same session. The Terms on that page list Prime membership purchases as not eligible, which is why the Prime Video page is the one to use for the membership itself.

What the order really costs. Your effective price is what you pay at checkout minus the cash ShopBack returns; the live rate for this store is on its ShopBack page.

Two habits keep this working:

• Add items to your cart after you tap through from ShopBack. The Amazon Australia page's Terms list items added to the cart before clicking through as not eligible.
• Skip manually entered promo codes. At the time of writing, the Amazon Australia page's Terms say using any promo, coupon or discount code makes the whole order ineligible, and they suggest starting with an empty cart.
• Read the Terms section on the ShopBack page before you buy. Exclusions differ by category.

Other online stores you can go through ShopBack for

If you are comparing places to shop online in Australia, ShopBack Australia covers marketplaces and department stores alike, including Amazon Australia, Temu, AliExpress, Myer, Kogan and eBay Australia. Each store's ShopBack page shows its own rate and Terms. For when to use Amazon or eBay, see our Amazon Australia vs eBay Australia guide.

Where Australians find Amazon deals

Most Amazon deal hunting in Australia happens in three places: Amazon's own Today's Deals page, Prime member events such as Prime Day, and deal communities such as OzBargain, where members post price drops and discussion. Deals there change hour to hour, so treat any post as a lead and check the price on Amazon before you buy.

Whatever deal you find, the last step is the same: before you check out, go through the ShopBack Amazon Australia page, so the same order costs you less.
