What you get

The Audible Premium Plus plan

Included · 6

  • 1 credit per month - redeem for any audiobook regardless of list price

  • Audible Plus catalog - 11,000+ titles included to stream or download for free

  • Audible Originals - exclusive titles, podcasts, and dramatizations

  • 30% member discount on additional audiobook purchases beyond your credit

  • Member-only sales (often $5 or less per book) and seasonal freebies

  • Audiobooks stay in your library forever - even if you cancel, your purchased books are still yours

Worth knowing

  • Print or Kindle versions of the same titles (separate purchase, sometimes Whispersync-eligible)

  • Unused credits if you cancel - they expire 6 months after issue and forfeit on cancellation

  • Premium Plus Annual savings - the trial converts you to monthly, not the cheaper $149.50/yr plan
