Fraud and Abuse Scenarios

To claim Prime Gaming content, a customer must have an Amazon account with an Amazon Prime subscription. Amazon Prime encourages customers to explore a free-trial option, which gives access to all Prime Gaming benefits. Deals on Prime Gaming content range from one-time to multi-month, and they must be designed carefully to prevent abuse whereby a customer could either claim an offer multiple times or claim consecutive offers without signing up for a valid Prime Gaming subscription.

Limiting the abuse of content entitlements protects your game's economy against unexpected inflation and ensures a strong partnership between Prime Gaming and your studio. Having content that can be applied no more than once per game account curtails the abuse of digital content. On the other hand, having content that's stackable or contains a transferable value increases the risk of abuse. This restriction is enforceable in the game developer ecosystem, and it ensures that the game economy is protected regardless of how customers attempt to abuse the account link or trial system.
