How to Sign up for Amazon’s Invite-Only Deals During the Black Friday Sale
Not all Black Friday deals are available to everyone. Starting in 2023, some of the best deals at Amazon’s biggest sales are invite-only, meaning you’ll need to register before the sale starts and hope to be chosen to receive a discount. These offers have become a staple of Amazon’s major sales, including Prime Day this summer.
With the Black Friday sale starting November 20th , more and more invite-only deals will be appearing on the site. Here’s how to find them and sign up for them to ensure you have a chance to take advantage of the great deals.
Who is eligible for Black Friday invite-only promotions?
Only a limited number of items will be available for invitation-only offers. You can find them by the “Invite Only” banner on the product page. As Amazon explains , you must be a Prime member to participate in invitation-only offers. By signing up, you’re essentially requesting a purchase invitation, which will be sent to you via email, but only if you’ve chosen it.
Here are the steps to register:
-
Find the “Prime by Invite Only” offer you want to purchase. The list of offers will appear on the “Deals” page after Black Friday begins.
-
Go to the product description page.
-
Select “Request an Invite.” If you’re not a Prime member, sign up for Prime to request an invitation.
-
You will receive an email notification confirming your invitation request. The confirmation will be sent to the email address specified in your Amazon account. If you don’t have an email address, add one by going to “Your Account” > “Sign In” > “Security.”
How to find out if your invite-only deal has been approved
Please note that requesting an invitation does not guarantee you’ll receive one. If you’re selected, you’ll receive a push notification in the Amazon app and an email during the sale. If you’re not selected, Amazon will also notify you that you didn’t receive an invitation. You can only purchase one of the items you’ve been invited to, but you can request as many different invitations as you like. The invitation will remain valid until the sale ends or supplies last.
Invite-only deals are usually some of the most impressive sales. For example, last year Amazon sold a 43-inch 4K Smart Fire TV for just $99, and you’ll likely see similar deals this year.
