Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Prime Video is the video streaming service run by Amazon, launched in 2006 and now available in over 200 countries and territories. In Australia it is included with an Amazon Prime membership, which also carries free delivery on eligible amazon.com.au items, early access to deals and Prime Gaming. Members stream Amazon Originals, films and series from the web or the Prime Video app, watch on up to 3 devices at once, and download titles for offline viewing. Click through from the ShopBack Amazon Prime Video merchant page before you start a membership to earn cashback at the current published rate.

Amazon's help pages state that you get a selection of Included with Prime titles as part of an Amazon Prime membership, whether monthly, annual or an annual Prime Student membership. Membership offers vary by country, so Australians should select Australia during sign-up to see the local options. Some titles sit outside the included catalogue and are offered as rentals, purchases or through add-on subscriptions at extra cost. The ShopBack Amazon Prime Video listing tracks the Prime sign-up itself, so the included catalogue is what the cashback relates to.

New Amazon Prime members get a 30-day free trial. The ShopBack Amazon Prime Video terms state that cashback only applies when you continue your subscription after the trial period, so a trial that is cancelled before the first paid charge earns nothing. Start the trial from the ShopBack page so the click is tracked, then let the first paid month or annual charge go through. ShopBack lists the purchase as tracked within about 2 days and confirmed in around 55 days, which covers the trial window plus the first billing.

The ShopBack Amazon Prime Video terms say Cashback is available only for subscriptions from the AU/NZ region. A membership started while connected to another country's Amazon store, or on an account whose Prime Video region is set elsewhere, sits outside the Australian listing. Sign up on primevideo.com with Australia selected, starting from the Amazon Prime Video page on ShopBack.

Add-on subscriptions are extra channels and streaming providers you can subscribe to inside Prime Video for an additional fee, and the providers manage which titles they include. Some add-ons offer a Watch Live feature for broadcast streams on supported devices. They bill separately from the Prime membership and can be cancelled from Your Account in Prime Video. Add-ons are not the subject of the ShopBack Amazon Prime Video listing, so do not count on cashback for a channel subscription; the listing is about the Prime membership sign-up.

Prime Video also sells and rents individual films, seasons and box sets. Amazon's help page states that rented titles stay in your video library for 30 days from the rental date, and once you press play you have at least 48 hours to finish watching. Bought titles are added to My Stuff and are generally available to stream or download, though licensing can occasionally make a title unavailable. Rentals and purchases are paid per title rather than through the membership, and they are separate from the Prime sign-up that the ShopBack Amazon Prime Video listing tracks.

Prime Video is the only one of the three bundled with a shopping membership, so if your household already values Amazon delivery, the streaming comes with a membership you hold anyway. Netflix and Stan are standalone subscriptions with their own tiers and catalogues. Prime Video also adds pay-per-title rentals and add-on channels inside the same app. For a catalogue comparison, our Netflix vs Stan vs Binge guide covers the local line-ups. On ShopBack, it is the Prime sign-up started from the Amazon Prime Video page on ShopBack that earns Cashback.

Prime Video's sign-up page states you can watch on up to 3 devices at once, from the web or the app on phones, tablets and selected smart TVs, with consoles, set top boxes, media players and Amazon devices also supported. Titles download to iPhone, iPad and Android devices for offline viewing, and profiles keep household watchlists separate. None of this affects ShopBack tracking, which is tied to the membership sign-up made in the browser session started from the ShopBack page.

The ShopBack terms pay Cashback per sign-up once the Amazon Prime subscription continues past the 30-day trial into its first paid charge. Go through ShopBack before you pay and the Cashback tracks to your ShopBack account. Click through from the Amazon Prime Video page on ShopBack to primevideo.com with Australia selected, and start the Amazon Prime membership there. Cashback should appear as pending within about 2 days and confirm in around 55 days. The Amazon Prime Video page on ShopBack shows which sign-ups earn Cashback and the live rate.

The Prime sign-up Cashback confirms once the membership continues past the 30-day free trial into a paid period. Cashback is based on what you keep: if you return or cancel part of an order, the Cashback adjusts to match. Cancelling an add-on channel or a rental leaves the Prime sign-up Cashback as it is.

Neither is better for everyone: Netflix suits households that mainly want a standalone streaming service with a deep library of original series and films, while Amazon Prime suits households that already shop on amazon.com.au, because Prime Video comes bundled with Prime delivery benefits. If you mostly stream and rarely order from Amazon, Netflix is the more focused subscription. If you already pay for Prime for shipping, Prime Video comes with a membership you hold anyway, plus rentals and add-on channels in the same app. Many families keep one as the main service and rotate the other in for a specific show, which our streaming subscription savings guide walks through. Start your Prime trial from the ShopBack Amazon Prime Video page and check the live rate there.
