Amazon.com Inc raises minimum order size for free shipping in U.S. in push to convert shoppers to Prime service

Amazon is increasing the minimum order size for free shipping to US$49 from US$35 in the United States.

Amazon.com Inc. is growing the minimum order size free of charge shipping to US$49 from US$35, one step that could encourage more customers to sign up for Prime, the online retailer’s annual service which includes two-day deliveries.

The benefit of getting good people to subscribe to Prime services -for US$99 a year – is that they have a tendency to shop more frequently and waste your money, while access to other perks such as online movies, music along with other content keeps customers within Amazon’s shopping ecosystem.
