Amazon Launches Amazon Prime in Singapore
Singapore: Amazon announced the launch of Amazon Prime in Singapore. Prime is Amazon’s popular membership program that provides exclusive access to benefits such as fast shipping, streaming and gaming. This week, Singapore customers will be able to enjoy Prime benefits including exclusive access to free two-hour delivery on orders over S$40 with tens of thousands of items and unlimited free international shipping on orders above S$60 on more than 5 million items from Amazon US — all available in the Prime Now App. Plus, Prime members in Singapore will enjoy unlimited access to popular and award-winning Amazon Prime Originals like the highly-anticipated second season of The Grand Tour premiering December 8, as well as other shows, movies and more on Prime Video. They will also enjoy access to gaming benefits with Twitch Prime, at no additional cost. Amazon Prime in Singapore will be available for S$8.99 per month; however, for a limited time, customers can sign up for S$2.99 per month. Everyone can try Prime by signing up for a free 30-day trial at www.amazon.com.sg.
“We want to make the lives of customers living in Singapore better every day. Customers in Singapore have been enjoying ultra-fast delivery with Prime Now since July, and now, the introduction of Amazon Prime will take their shopping experience to the next level,” said Jamil Ghani, Vice President Amazon Prime International. “Now with an even wider selection of international items available for unlimited free international shipping, along with unlimited access to Prime Video and Twitch Prime, this membership is designed to offer the best of Amazon. And this is just the beginning. We will keep making Prime better, adding even more selection and benefits.”
“As a Singaporean myself, Prime’s arrival to our tech-savvy city state brings me great pride,” said Henry Low, Director of Operations, Prime Now, Amazon. “Singapore is now part of a very selective group of countries who can leverage Prime benefits. I’m humbled to serve customers in Singapore and to keep expanding the Amazon services customers in Singapore can experience.”
