Amazon Prime Video Viewers Will Have To Pay Extra To Avoid Ads Starting in January
Nothing Is Ad-Free Anymore
Amazon warned us that this would happen and come the new year, viewers will have to pay an extra $2.99 to avoid watching ads.
The ad-free tier, which will officially roll out on Jan. 29, will be on top of the $139 annual cost of an Amazon Prime subscription or the $8.99-a-month standalone Amazon Prime Video subscription.
That means users who choose not to pay the extra fee to go ad-free will start seeing commercials on Prime Video content starting the same day.
Amazon says it’s still lower priced than its competitors.
- Amazon Prime Video Ad-Free (standalone): $10.99 a month
- Amazon Prime Video Ad-Free (with Prime subscription): $16.99 a month
- Netflix Standard: $15.49 a month
- Disney+ Ad-Free: $13.99 a month
- Hulu Ad-Free: $17.99 a month
- NBCUniversal's Peacock: $11.99 a month
- Max: $15.99 a month
