> You need Prime to get the 5%. Prime costs $119/year. There are loopholes to this that make Prime much cheaper though. For example, Prime Student [1] is $6.49/month or $59/year. The EBT subsidized Prime membership mentioned elsewhere in the thread is $5.99/month (no annual discount). You can also use Amazon Household [3] on an existing Prime membership to qualify multiple people in the household as Prime members. All members get the 5% benefit, not just the card holder. I doubt this stacks on the student version but it definitely does on vanilla Prime and likely on the subsidized version as well.
