Most people use Prime for one thing, free delivery, but the membership includes a lot more, and most of it never gets switched on. Everything here comes from Amazon's own Prime pages.
Grubhub+ comes with Prime. That means no delivery fees on eligible orders and lower service fees; you just link your accounts once at amazon.com/grubhub.
Amazon Photos includes unlimited full-resolution photo storage, plus some video storage. Turn on auto-save in the app and your phone backs up your photos on its own.
Music: Prime includes the full Amazon Music catalog on shuffle, plus top podcasts without ads. If you want to pick any song on demand, that's Amazon Music Unlimited, which has its own free trial.
Sharing: Prime lets you share benefits like delivery with one other adult in your household, and streaming benefits with up to four kids. Everyone keeps their own account.
Savings outside Amazon: members get fuel savings at participating stations, prescription savings at thousands of pharmacies, and extra savings at Whole Foods Market.
Amazon Day: pick one day a week and your orders arrive together in fewer boxes, with rewards on eligible orders.
The extras: a featured Kindle book free every month, games on Amazon Luna with no console, and Alexa+ included with Prime.
Prime for Young Adults: if you're a student or between 18 and 24, it has a longer trial and a discounted plan with the full Prime benefits.
Our take: before the big holiday shopping weeks, take a few minutes and switch these on. Not a member yet? Start with the free trial so you can see exactly what's included before you pay anything.
