Amazon MX Player will join Prime Video, bringing together India's largest selection of exclusive and original content across free and paid streaming under a single destination. The integration makes Prime Video a one-stop hub for quality entertainment for every viewer and every mood to serve India’s diverse customer base. With the unification of the two streaming services, Prime members will enjoy a wide selection of originals and exclusives across devices with the choice to watch with ads or go ad-free.

For customers seeking free, high quality video entertainment, the unified service will offer a wider selection of AVOD content, in addition to offering seamless experiences to subscribe to Prime.

In 2024, Amazon acquired certain MX Player assets and merged them with Amazon miniTV to create Amazon MX Player, a service that built its expansive reach on the strength of its rooted, wide-appealing originals, and ad tech innovation that has democratised access to free and quality entertainment. In the next few months, this integration will bring together India’s largest free-and-paid streaming service under one brand, spanning Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD), Advertising Video on Demand (AVOD), Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD), and add-on subscriptions, all in one place.

For advertisers, the integration creates a single destination to reach audiences across free and paid streaming. Girish Prabhu, Vice President & Head, Amazon Ads India, says, “The unification of Amazon MX Player with Prime Video is a gamechanger for advertisers in India. We've created a single streaming destination that reaches audiences across the entire spectrum — from free ad-supported viewers to Prime members — enabling true full-funnel advertising on an unprecedented scale. Advertisers now have access to the most relevant and high-performing ad formats, all powered by trillions of shopping, browsing, and streaming signals, transforming every impression into measurable business outcomes, making Prime Video the most comprehensive video advertising service in Indian streaming.”
