Prime Day 2024 dates revealed: Everything you need to know
Amazon’s massive shopping holiday is nearly upon us, and now we know when it starts.
Some of Amazon’s deals are so popular, however, that they sell out in a flash. In order to give everyone a fair chance at grabbing one of these deals, Amazon makes some of the most popular deals invite-only. This means that if you want to take advantage of the deal, you’ll have to register your interest, and hope that you’re one of the lucky few who are chosen. In the past, we’ve seen invite-only deals on popular products such as the Amazon Fire TV Omni Series TV, Blink Outdoor camera bundles, and Sony soundbars.
What are these invite-only deals, and how can you take advantage of them? We take a look at how these special deals work and which ones you can already sign up for.
What are Amazon Prime Day invite-only deals?
Limited deals for products that are likely to sell out fast
Amazon
If you’ve used Amazon a lot, you’ve probably come across Lightning Deals. These are time-limited sales that only run for a specific length of time or until all the available products have been sold. These are deals on products with limited stock, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

During Prime Day, Amazon adds a similar type of deal on products that it thinks will sell out fast. Instead of making these deals available to everyone, however, it limits access to those who have an invite. Any Prime member can register for these invite-only deals, but only a lucky few will be selected to take advantage of them. Amazon expects demand for these products to exceed supply, so they’re letting you register for a chance to buy the product if your name is chosen.
Any Prime member can register for these invite-only deals, but only a lucky few will be selected to take advantage of them.
If you’re selected from the people that register for these invite-only deals, you’ll receive an email or push notification informing you that you have the opportunity to buy the deal. You’re only able to buy a single product; you won’t be able to select more than one.
If you change your mind, you’re under no obligation to make the purchase if you don’t want to, so if you think you may be interested in an invite-only deal, there’s no harm in registering your interest. If you decide you don’t want to buy the item, you can just ignore the notification.
Amazon Prime
Let’s talk about your Prime membership before you start shopping: You do need one to snag Prime Day sales on Amazon (even invite-only ones). Not only does it grant you access to those exclusive discounts, but it also unlocks additional benefits like free one or two-day delivery. If you’re not yet a Prime member, you can take advantage of a free 30-day trial before deciding whether to commit to a monthly subscription.
