Earlier we shared rumors about the dates for Amazon Prime Day 2020. Now Amazon has confirmed that Prime Day will be October 13 and 14, just in time to grab those deals before the holidays. This year, there will be more than 1 million deals encluded in the 2-day online shopping event, with sales starting as early as today leading up to the official dates.
“In the midst of an unprecedented year, we’re committed to making this the most successful Prime Day ever for our small businesses and excited for Prime members worldwide to discover new ways to support local entrepreneurs and save big on everything they need and love,” said Jeff Wilke, Amazon CEO Worldwide Consumer. “This year’s Prime Day is the perfect opportunity for Prime members to get their holiday shopping done early from the comfort of their homes – and to have more time to spend with their families and friends throughout the season.”
What’s more, Amazon is investing an extra $100 million in special holiday promotions throughout the season and will offer a $10 credit to use on Prime Day to members who spend $10 on items sold by select small businesses in Amazon’s store now through October 12. This is part of Amazon’s ongoing effort to support sellers during COVID-19.
