Let’s get to the numbers
The new price of Prime is $139 per year in the U.S. That’s a spike from the $119 annual fee that kickstarted in 2018. If you’re already a member, this price will take effect after March 25. Newer members have a smaller window of time to pay $119. They have only until Feb. 18 before the price change goes into effect. Oh, and you should also know the monthly membership is rising to $14.99 per month. Compare that to the previous cost of $12.99 per month.
