Randomly stumbled upon this landing page. DON'T click the yellow button, the promotion for 3 months is right above it in a separate banner, click on that instead. It says new customers only but I previously had a one-month trial and it still worked for me so idk. Note that it is through Amazon.com, NOT Amazon.com.au, so you might need to create an amazon.com account if you don't have one already. You will also get 1 credit per month to "buy" books from them so spend them wisely! Otherwise their free catalogue isn't too bad.

    Worked 👍

  • So funny seeing authors complain about Amazon hurting independent book stores on X and then a month later they are spruiking their exclusive audiobook on Audible. They could have sold the rights to their audiobook exclusively through small bookstores for far less money and reach if they really wanted..

  • Thanks OP! It works for me!

  • Nice one, i click and it was added to my existing account (which i previously had the 30 day trial), no drama

  • +3

    Good one OP.

    Note if you have previously had an Aussie Audible account (.com.au) anh pre-existing library you may have amassed won’t appear in this (.com).

    • You need to change from .com to .com.au (and back again) on your device to see the separate libraries, even if you use the same email address.

    Hmm. I saw the 3 month trial, but after I logged in to buy, it disappeared and now I can only see the 1 month trial..

    How do you create an Amazon.com account? Do you need to use American address?

  • +3

    No trial available to my account.

  • Cheers worked

  • this worked - thank you!

    Remember that Spotify now does Audiobooks too if you've got a Premium account (not sure how the catalogues compare but I've been pleasantly surprised) - Audible is expensive once the trial period is over

    • You have to buy audiobooks in Spotify.

      • Not true, you get 15 hours listening per month included.

        Not on all catalogue but still lots of good stuff - I just finished Prophet Song which is new and just won Booker Prize.

        • Cool, I could only see the for-sale ones. You can't buy them through the app either, it makes you use the website for some odd reason.

    • Just cancel and wait till they give you 99 cents a month for two months, then cancel again. Have done that a few times.

    • The key to Audible is to never pay for anything, multiple accounts then get free trials or the 99c for a month deals

  • Works great! Has been a long while since O last was able to redeem a free trial.

  • Thanks. This is my 3rd free trial now I think.

  • It worked to sign up on the browser. But when I installed the app and signed in, it tells me to "Join now to get this title for free" can someone explain what's happening?

    • See my prior comment above. That could be the issue.

    • Select USA on the login page in the app.

    icloud mail has this hide you emails function which creates as many fake emails as you like and it forwards them to you real email you could make an account every year when this comes around lol

  • Thanks for the deal.
    The page shows:
    "Your next billing date is 03/07/2024 or at the end of your free trial"

    If you cancel to prevent the charge on the end of the free trial, does the membership still continue until then?

    • +2

      You need to wait until the final month before cancelling otherwise it will cancel at end of current month. Just set a reminder.

    • +2

      I think it's American format so you will be charged on 07/03/24

  • Legend! got it for one of my accounts

  • I suspect the three month deal might be "Targeted".

    I have 3 Audible accounts (expired). I received come back emails for two over the last week with subject of "Congrats, you've unlocked 3 months free"".

  • I think this is for the 'American Audible'. My app which uses the australian audible doesnt reflect the subscription even though this did work for me.

    • My account invites above are for Australian Audible.I do have one USA account but nothing received on it.

    • Select USA in the app.

  • -1

    Please be aware it is in American format.. billing date is '03/07/24' like it states is actually 07/03/24 I believe.. I thought I had the deal but it was only for 1 month. Still good thanks op

  • It worked me for but my mobile has the Australian Audible app. Is there an easy way to switch between regions on the app? I'm assuming probably not.

    • +4

      Log out of the app. When you log back in you can choose the region at the bottom

  • The banner for me only shows 30 days like the yellow button section.

  • Worked for me, it says

    "Audible Premium Plus is free for your first 3 months. After 3 months, membership continues at $14.95 (AUD 22.91 as of today) a month."

    But when I go to subscriptions is says
    "Your subscription will renew on March 7, 2024" and it is not clear that I get months 2 and 3 for free.

    Think it should be ok though, I took a screenshot.

  • Thanks OP need every credit I can get to tackle the Horus heresy

    Probably not a bad deal but may not bother for the sake of 3 free books (one per month for members)
    Apparently only about 108 free titles by the look of it.

    • It's not just the free titles. You get three credits to buy any books (one per month). One can also listen to any of the freebie stuff on there.

      • +1

        yes so 3 free books to buy.

        • +1

          No, it's three books that even members have to purchase but can use their monthly credit to pay for. Not related to the Stream and download thousands of shows and titles from the Plus Catalog.

          • +1

            @Borg: yes so you get 3 free books, members buy one per month
            (plus any of the other free downloads that may or may not be trash)O

              @G-rig: ¯_(ツ)_/¯

              • +3

                @Borg: I know what the confusion is about - all the member free downloads aside, what I said isn't incorrect.
                3 months free membership -> members get to buy1 book a month with their 'credit' = 3 books.
                Just don't forget to cancel, unless you enjoy it and keep it going.

                I got a city library card and borrow box app works well foe e-books, but may try it out.

                  @G-rig: All good. My EMO above only represented a….."I'll hold off further commenting" as what I was saying might not fully relate to what you're saying" i.e. a kind of neutral perhaps/perhaps not. EMO :-)

                  Cancelling = Yeah, being using thses for years now. Love the freebies or the $1 per month offers. I set a reminder to cancel once in month three.

                    @Borg: Cool sounds like it's worthwhile and no risk in me trying it out. Perhaps my wording also complicated things as usual.
                    Cheers

                      @G-rig: Yeah all good always worth a try.
                      Gotta laugh at the Neg votes above from people who are not even part of this or obviously don't understand what is being noted….hahaha

    If this link didn't work for your account try the other deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/830404
    I had 1 account work with this one and another work with the other link.

    Protip - If you have books purchased on your Australian Audible account, and download them onto your app, they will still appear in your library when you login to your US Audible account.

    • not sure if I'll get banned but after you download you can return the book for your credit and you just do it again
