Amazon Student Free Credit
It's rare to find an offer that is completely free, gives you a bonus for referring friends, and is worthwhile. It's like a fabled Freebie Trifecta written about in the ancient scrolls and yet I'm sitting here with exactly such an offer. I don't know whether to blog about it or hide it under my bed to keep all to myself.
Well, I guess we know which option I went with.
Remember when I raved about the wonders of Amazon Prime earlier this month? I mentioned that anybody with a .edu email address can get a free semester of Amazon Student, thus giving them a free semester of two-day shipping. Well, now through September 15, 2013, you can also get a free $10 Amazon.com credit for every friend you refer to Amazon Student.
Think about that for a second. You can get $10 for every friend who joins the free Amazon Student service. Nobody's paying any money here! It's win-win-win-win-win for all involved. I don't care if I put too many wins back there. That's how good a deal this is. You get free money, your friend gets free shipping, and Amazon gets…well I don't know what the hell Amazon gets, but I'm sure they're happy with things.
Amazon Mom Free Credit
But hey, the fun doesn't stop there! Amazon Mom is another free service that comes bundled with Amazon Prime and, yep, you guessed it. For every friend you refer who also makes a $10 purchase, you'll in turn get a free $10 Amazon.com credit.
Remember, these are basically trial memberships for Amazon Prime, so you'll need to cancel if you don't want to pay a dime after six months. Of course, since I'm such a nice guy, here are the steps to canceling both services!
- How to cancel Amazon Student.
- How to cancel Amazon Mom.
So to sum up, both of these programs are free, both provide an awesome two-day shipping perk, and both can net you some extra cash.
Amazon Kindle Deals
And finally, Amazon has a limited time sale on Kindles
- Kindle Fire HD 8.9 for $199 instead of $269 via code FIREHD89.
- Kindle Fire HD 7 for $149 instead of $199 via code FIREHDST.
- Kindle Fire 7 for $129 instead of $159 via code FIREDEAL.
Okay. I think that's everything. Enjoy!

I need a .edu email for amazon student… dont have one
You actually don’t. I don’t have one and just emailed Amazon with a picture of my student ID and they approved it.
Also, I just went to Amazon and it said they couldn’t offer the referral credit to people in North Carolina.
I told a friend about the free student account and she said when she signed up it wanted her credit card to charge her for the account. Amazon has my debit card already, so I didn’t know what to tell her. Is it required for an account and if so is it definite that it won’t charge her for the student account?
Jenny, a credit card is required. However as long as she (or anybody) uses the methods I linked above to cancel, she shouldn’t be charged.
Thanks!
Where’s the link that gives ME credit if THEY join??? The link above only goes to the enrollment page with no mention of who referred them (so that I can get the $10 referral credit).
Bobbett, check out these images!
What images? All I see is your one sentence post.
Where’s the link so that *I* get the $10 Amazon credit if someone joins through MY referral??
Ahhh, are you looking in the comments here on HIF? I posted two images with red arrows pointing to where you can get your link to get your money 🙂
I can see them now. Don’t know why they didn’t appear before. I AM on the HIF page. Do *I* have to be a member of Prime or Amazon Mom for this offer?
just tried to use code FIREHD89 & it said
“The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.”
tried on both the 16 & 32
Did you just now sign up for Amazon Student? It might take up to 24 hours for the codes to become active on your account.
