Amazon Australia has introduced the Subscribe and Save program.
The program enables customers to sign up for scheduled repeat deliveries on products they routinely shop for. With this, comes a 10 per cent discount and free delivery.
Thousands of products are now available as part of Subscribe and Save across everyday household essentials. Among the available brands are Carman’s, Coca-Cola, Fairy, Heinz, Huggies, L’Oreal, Moccona, Omo, Optimum Nutrition, T2 tea and Vegemite.
“Time and money are two of our most precious commodities and Subscribe and Save gives Amazon customers a simple way to save on both,” Amazon Australia Country Manager Matt Furlong said.
“We are excited to bring Australian customers a program that is loved by customers around the world.
“There is nothing worse than running out of your favourite coffee, washing powder, nappies for your newborn, dog food, or toothpaste, and ‘Subscribe and Save’ will help make this a thing of the past.”
How it works
From today, customers will see a Subscribe and Save icon appear next to eligible products on Amazon.com.au.
Customers don’t need to pay any subscription fee. They just need to subscribe to the products they use routinely and choose the frequency they want the product delivered, from one to six months.
Amazon Australia says customers will benefit from an ongoing 10 per cent discount and free delivery after the initial order. The prices on individual items may go up or down between deliveries but subscribers will always get a 10 per cent discount on the price when their ‘Subscribe and Save’ order is ready for shipping.
Customers have the flexibility to skip deliveries, change the delivery day or cancel the delivery.
Subscribe and Save around the world
Subscribe and Save is said to be one of Amazon’s most popular programs internationally.
In the UK, US and Canada the most popular categories within the program are grocery, household goods, pet supplies and beauty.
