Amazon Prime Offers Free Year of Nintendo Switch Online
Twitch Prime is giving members a complimentary 12-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, which normally costs $20. Users must claim the benefit in two separate installments before the offer expires.
Twitch Prime is offering a valuable new perk for Nintendo Switch owners by providing up to a full year of Nintendo Switch Online for free. This subscription service typically costs $20 annually and allows users to play online multiplayer games and access a library of classic NES titles. Anyone with an Amazon Prime or Prime Video account automatically qualifies for this benefit simply by linking their account to Twitch.
The free year is not available all at once, as users must claim the subscription in two separate stages. Eligible members can redeem an initial three months immediately, and then they must wait two months to claim the remaining nine months. Both Twitch and Nintendo set specific expiration dates for these redemption windows, meaning users need to pay close attention to the timeline so they do not miss out on the second half of the deal.
This promotion is especially convenient for existing Nintendo Switch Online subscribers because the free months simply add on to their current subscription time. As part of the broader Twitch Prime package, members already enjoy various digital benefits like free in-game loot, indie games, and a free channel subscription on the live streaming platform. Users should set a reminder to ensure they return in two months to claim the final portion of their free year.
