If you want to save money at Audible, here are some tips and tricks:
- Free audiobook. If you're new to Audible, you can take advantage of its 30-day free trial to get a free audiobook (which you can keep). Make sure you mark in your diary to cancel if you don't want to continue with your subscription, otherwise you'll be charged £7.99/month.
- Consider buying a membership. If you listen to a lot of audiobooks, consider whether subscribing to a membership plan is worth it for you. The cheapest plan is £7.99/month, and gets you one credit each month, which you can exchange for any single-volume audiobook. As some audiobooks cost up to £30, this could be a decent saving.
- Listen to free samples. Before you commit to buying an audiobook, listen to a free sample online at Audible. If you've bought a book and not enjoyed it, you can also return it for a refund up to 12 months afterwards.

Audible FREE three-month trial for Prime members
Normally £7.99/month. Newbies only or those who haven't had a subscription in last 12 months
ExpiredAmazon Prime members who sign up to audiobook and podcast streaming service Audible* via this link before 11.59pm on Thursday 13 July can get a free three-month trial. It's available for Audible newbies, or anyone who's not had a free trial or subscription in the last 12 months.
Important: You’ll need to enter payment details when you sign up. If you don't cancel Audible* before your trial ends, you'll pay £7.99/month for it.
You will also receive one free book token credit per month for the duration of the trial (so three free credits in total), which you can use to purchase and download an audiobook on audible.co.uk only (excludes books sold on audible.com). These can be kept even if you decide not to continue with a paid subscription afterwards. However, if you have any unused credits you will lose these immediately if you cancel.
To avoid being charged, we suggest you cancel at least 24 hours before your free trial ends. To cancel your subscription, sign into your Audible account and go into the Account Details section. There you can click Cancel Membership, where you'll be asked to confirm. You should receive an email after to confirm you have successfully cancelled.

ExpiredIf you sign up to an Audible* free 30-day trial via this link before 10am on Mon 29 Apr, you can get two completely free audiobooks of your choice. Amazon Prime members can get a 90-day trial and four free audiobooks (see below).
Important: After your trial ends, you'll be automatically enrolled into a monthly subscription and be charged £7.99/month unless you cancel online*, so remember to cancel if you don't want to keep it – you can do this anytime during your trial, and you'll get to keep any audiobooks you've downloaded to your device.
The offer is available for anyone who's not had an Audible subscription, including a free trial, in the last 12 months.
If you've got a Kindle and prefer e-books, see MSE Jenny's MoneySaving tricks to get must-read Kindle books for FREE blog.
How does Audible work?
When you sign up for an Audible account, you get one free credit each month which you can use to purchase any audiobook available at Audible.co.uk or Amazon.co.uk – though with this offer you'll get two credits/audiobooks rather than the usual one – see 'More info' below for full T&Cs.
Once you've chosen your book, you can download it to your device via the Audible app, where it's yours to keep, even if you cancel your subscription.
Amazon Prime customer?
If you're an Amazon Prime customer, you'll get a 90-day free trial. You'll receive two credits when you open your Audible account, plus one credit at the beginning of each two remaining months on your free trial – so a total of four free books over the 90-day period.
We've checked with Amazon and sadly you can't get the four books for free if you sign up for an Amazon Prime free trial alongside the Audible trial - you'd have to pay for Amazon Prime for the second and third months of the Audible trial to receive the third and fourth free audiobooks.
