Jan 19, 2018The monthly membership fee for Amazon Prime rose Friday from $10.99 to $12.99.
Company officials said the annual membership will remain at $99 dollars.
Monthly customers do not get access to Amazon Video, which costs $8.99 a month.
The last Prime subscription hike came in 2014, when Amazon increased its yearly membership from $79 to $99.
The e-commerce company did not give a reason for the price increase.
