Amazon Prime is getting a price hike. The tech giant on Friday announced that it has raised the monthly Amazon Prime membership rate from $10.99 per month to $12.99 per month, an increase of 18%. Amazon was quick to note, however, that the $99 annual membership fee for Amazon Prime will remain the same.


So people who can afford the luxury of paying yearly still pay $99, but those paying monthly now have to pay $156 a year (over 50% more expensive!)

Can you believe bleeding heart Bezos would take advantage of cash poor people like this? Wow

/sarcasm

If this was WalMart libs would be bitching up a storm about this predatory pricing

This is dumb.


The notion of paying less by paying all of it up front ... is not new for pretty much any business.
