But did you know you can add another adult, with up to four children, to an Amazon household? Allow you to share Prime benefits and digital content?
In this article, we explain what an Amazon Household is and how it works, how to create an Amazon Household, and the different benefits each person enjoys in an Amazon Household.
Amazon Household is a way to share the benefits of Amazon Prime and digital content with others in your household. And all at no additional cost.
Key perks you can share include Free Prime Delivery, Access to Prime Video, Access to Prime Reading, and Early Access to Lightning Deals.
You can also share digital content such as eBooks, audiobooks, apps, and games. In addition to managing parental controls for the youngest members of the household.
To set up an Amazon household, all you need to do is add someone to your household. Whether it's an adult, a teenager or a child.
Adding another adult to your Amazon household has many benefits.
If you have a Prime account, this lets someone else in your home enjoy your Prime benefits, including Prime delivery and early access to Lightning Deals.
Amazon Photos and Album Sharing can be used by whoever you add, and it also lets you share digital content if you set up a Family Library. This means that audiobooks and e-books, apps and games can all be shared between two people.
To add an adult to your Amazon Household account, you need to follow these steps.
While it doesn't offer the same benefits as adding another adult to your Amazon household, giving access to a teenager is a fantastic way to help older kids feel more independent. Anyone you add between the ages of 13 and 17 can have their own Amazon login to shop or stream, and you can also set spending limits or review purchases.
It also allows the teens you add to enjoy certain Prime perks, including Prime delivery, early access to deals, and free Prime Video. Adding a teenager to your account is quick and easy:
Once everything has been confirmed, you will be able to edit their profile and edit order approvals. This will allow you to skip or select approval steps, or even set pre-approval spending limits. You will also receive detailed notifications for each order, so you can choose to cancel or return any item.
There are even unique benefits to adding children ages 12 or younger to your Amazon household.
They can access digital content through your Amazon account, but you can also set parental controls to ensure they don't see anything inappropriate. Each child added can have their own educational goals and you can also set time limits on how long they can play or watch.

To add a younger child to your account, here's what you need to do.
The process for removing someone from your Amazon household is almost exactly the same for adults, teens, and children. Simply log in to your Amazon account, then navigate to Your Account . From there, head to Amazon Household Purchase Programs and Rentals (or head straight to the Amazon Household page).
On this page, if you are removing an adult, click Remove under their name and confirm. For teens and children, select Edit under their name, then Remove the child/adolescent from the household .
There is one big caveat to keep in mind when setting up an Amazon fireplace. If for some reason you remove an adult, you must wait 180 days before you can add another, so you won't be able to share the ever-rotating perks with your friends.
Other than that, the benefits of setting up an Amazon household speak for themselves. Whether you're looking to save money by sharing a Prime membership with another adult or just want your kids to enjoy their independence, it's worth looking into.
