Amazon Prime is a paid subscription service launched by Amazon in February 2005, originally offering free expedited shipping on eligible orders in exchange for an annual fee. It has since expanded to bundle streaming video and music, e-book lending and other perks, growing into one of the largest subscription programs in the world with hundreds of millions of members, and it is widely credited with driving customer loyalty and repeat purchasing that underpins much of Amazon's retail business.
