Key takeaways
- Amazon Family is now available in Canada, letting Prime members share select benefits with one other adult in their household at no extra cost.
- Shared benefits include fast, free delivery, Prime Video, exclusive deals and events like Prime Day and Prime Big Deal Days, Amazon Luna, and DashPass — all while keeping accounts completely separate.
- Each adult maintains their own order history, personalized recommendations, and account security. No shared passwords required.
Living in the same household doesn't mean you want to share everything. Your order history, your recommendations, and your account security are personal — but that doesn't mean another adult in your home should miss out on the benefits of Prime.
Now there's a better way. Amazon Family is officially available in Canada, giving Prime members a simple way to share many of their Prime benefits with one other adult in their household — without sharing a single account.
How does Amazon Family work?
With Amazon Family, the primary Prime member (called the Family Organizer) can invite one other adult in their household to share benefits including fast, free delivery, Prime Video, exclusive deals and events like Prime Day and Prime Big Deal Days, Amazon Luna, and DashPass. The Family Organizer selects a single payment method to share Prime benefits, the other adult accepts, and that's it — setup takes just a few taps.
Each person keeps their own Amazon account, their own order history, and their own personalized recommendations. Recommendations stay relevant. Accounts stay secure.
What benefits can you share?
Amazon Family members in Canada can share:
- Fast, free Prime delivery
- Exclusive deals and savings across thousands of items, plus events like Prime Day and Prime Big Deal Days
- Prime Video streaming
- Amazon Luna
- DashPass
What stays separate?
Each adult maintains their own:
- Order history
- Personalized recommendations — tuned to the right person
- Account security — no shared passwords or one-time codes
To share Prime benefits, the Family Organizer selects a single payment method. The household member will see limited payment details (last 4 digits, expiry date, and billing address), and the Family Organizer receives a notification showing the charge total for any purchase made on the shared payment method.
How do I set up Amazon Family?
To get started, visit amazon.ca/prime/familyhub or go to Your Account and select Your Amazon Family. From there, you can invite one other adult in your household to join. They'll receive an invitation, accept it, and immediately gain access to shared benefits.
You can also manage your family settings, view household members, and explore personalized Prime Video and Amazon Luna recommendations — all from the Family Hub.
How much does Amazon Family cost?
Amazon Family is free to set up and use. To share Prime benefits, one adult must be a Prime member. Prime is available for $9.99/month or $99/year, with a 30-day free trial for eligible customers.
