To add someone to your Amazon Prime shipping benefits, you generally use Amazon’s household-sharing feature from your account settings. The other person usually needs their own Amazon account and, for adult sharing, must live in the same household.

How to do it

  1. Sign in to your Amazon account.
  2. Go to Account or Your Account.
  3. Open Amazon Household or Amazon Family.
  4. Choose Add Adult.
  5. Enter the person’s name and email address.
  6. Send the invite and have them accept it.

What they get

Shared Prime benefits can include shipping perks, and depending on the setup, other Prime benefits like video or digital content sharing. Some Amazon help articles and guides also note that teens and children can be added separately through the household settings, with different rules than adults.

Things to know

Amazon’s sharing options are tied to household rules, so not everyone can be added the same way. In some cases, Amazon may limit how often adults can be removed or replaced in a household.

Step| What to do
---|---
1| Sign in to Amazon
2| Open Account settings
3| Find Amazon Household/Amazon Family
4| Select Add Adult
5| Enter name and email
6| Send invite and wait for acceptance

TL;DR

Use Amazon Household/Amazon Family in your account settings, then invite the person as an adult with their email. Once they accept, they can share eligible Prime shipping benefits.
