# noon One vs Amazon Prime: Price & Perks in UAE and Saudi

Reviewed by [Assaf Ibrahim](https://akhsam.com/team/#assaf), Editor-in-chief, marketplaces and partner codes

In the UAE the two cost almost the same (noon One AED 15 a month as a limited-time offer, Prime AED 16 a month or AED 140 a year), so pick the store you order from most. In Saudi Arabia Prime is much cheaper (SAR 16 a month or SAR 140 a year against SAR 29.99 a month for noon One), and it includes Prime Video. noon One is worth it in Saudi mainly if you use noon Minutes or noon Food often.

## Prices and trials at a glance

All figures come from the official noon help centre and the Amazon Prime pages, checked in October 2026. Prices change, so check the current page before you subscribe.

| Plan | UAE | Saudi Arabia |
| --- | --- | --- |
| noon One, monthly | AED 15 (limited-time offer) | SAR 29.99 |
| noon One, annual | Not published | Not published |
| noon One trial | 14 days free, once per mobile number | 7 days free, once per local mobile number |
| Amazon Prime, monthly | AED 16 | SAR 16 |
| Amazon Prime, annual | AED 140 (about AED 11.67 a month) | SAR 140 (about SAR 11.67 a month) |
| Prime intro offer | First 3 months at AED 8 a month | First 3 months at SAR 8 a month |

At the time of writing, the Prime pages show a paid intro offer (3 months at half price) rather than a free trial. Both services renew automatically, and both let you cancel any time from your account.

## Free delivery rules: members and non-members

| Rule | noon One | Amazon Prime |
| --- | --- | --- |
| UAE, members | Free next-day delivery on noon One orders; free same-day over AED 100, otherwise AED 5 | Free next-day on Prime items; free same-day over AED 100 if ordered before 12 PM, otherwise AED 3 |
| Saudi, members | Free on noon Express orders over SAR 50; free next-day on noon One orders; free same-day over SAR 100 (Riyadh only) | Free on Prime items; same-day free over SAR 100 if ordered before 12 PM (Riyadh and Jeddah); next-day, two-day or 4 to 6 day delivery elsewhere, depending on the city |
| UAE, non-members | noon does not publish a fee or free-delivery level; it is shown at checkout | Free with AED 100 or more of eligible items fulfilled by Amazon; otherwise from AED 10 |
| Saudi, non-members | Not published; shown at checkout | Free with SAR 100 or more of eligible items fulfilled by Amazon; otherwise from SAR 12 |

Two catches. On Amazon, items sold and shipped by other sellers do not count toward the 100 minimum, and only items marked Prime get Prime delivery. On noon, bulky-item and service fees can still apply to members, and noon says the fees depend on your city and order time.

## Extra benefits by country

| Benefit | UAE | Saudi Arabia |
| --- | --- | --- |
| noon One: quick services | Free delivery on noon Minutes over AED 25, noon Food over AED 30, now now over AED 50, noon Grocery over AED 100 | Free delivery on noon Minutes over SAR 30; noon Food restaurant orders free (minimum set by each restaurant) |
| noon One: other | Member-only discounts across noon, priority support, IPL streaming at AED 5 | No other benefits listed; Food and Minutes only in selected areas |
| Prime: entertainment | Prime Video, free PC games and a Twitch subscription | Prime Video, monthly PC games (Amazon Luna) |
| Prime: partners and extras | Free Deliveroo Plus (Amazon values it at AED 228 a year), Amazon Now 15-minute delivery free for members, 10% off Amazon Home Services | No food-delivery partner listed |
| Prime: shopping | Free shipping on eligible items from the US, UK and Germany; Prime Day and member deals | Same |

The Deliveroo link is through Deliveroo Plus Silver, which [Deliveroo says](https://deliveroo.ae/en/plus) gives free delivery on restaurant orders over AED 60. We found no talabat, Careem, Jahez or HungerStation tie-in on either official Prime page, and noon’s official noon One pages do not list a cashback rate for members.

## The break-even maths

**Amazon Prime.** A non-member pays from AED 10 (UAE) or SAR 12 (Saudi) on an order under 100. Prime costs 16 a month, or about 11.67 a month on the annual plan.

- UAE, monthly plan: 2 small orders a month (2 x AED 10 = AED 20) already cover AED 16.

- UAE, annual plan: 14 small orders a year (14 x AED 10 = AED 140) cover the fee.

- Saudi, monthly plan: 2 small orders a month (2 x SAR 12 = SAR 24) cover SAR 16.

- Saudi, annual plan: 12 small orders a year (12 x SAR 12 = SAR 144) cover SAR 140.

If most of your Amazon baskets are already over 100 with items fulfilled by Amazon, delivery is free anyway, and Prime only pays off through speed, Prime Video or the partner perks.

**noon One.** noon does not publish its non-member fees, so look at the delivery fee on your last few noon, Minutes or Food orders. In the UAE, if those fees add up to more than AED 15 a month, noon One pays for itself. In Saudi Arabia the bar is SAR 29.99 a month, which is roughly what Prime costs for two months on the monthly plan.

## Who should pick which

- **You mostly shop on Amazon and watch series:** Prime. In both countries the annual plan works out to about 11.67 a month and includes Prime Video.

- **You order groceries or food on noon several times a month:** noon One. The free-delivery levels on noon Minutes (AED 25 or SAR 30) are low, and Prime has nothing similar in Saudi Arabia.

- **You live in the UAE and use Deliveroo:** Prime, because Deliveroo Plus Silver is included at no extra cost.

- **You live in Saudi Arabia outside Riyadh:** check carefully. noon’s free same-day delivery is Riyadh only, and noon Food and Minutes run only in selected areas. Prime’s free delivery covers all areas, but speed depends on your city.

- **You order from both stores a lot:** in the UAE the two together cost AED 31 a month, which is worth it only if you would otherwise pay delivery fees above that.

## Cancelling and practical tips

- noon One: go to Account, then noon One, then Manage membership. In Saudi Arabia noon says your benefits stay until the end of the billing period. The free trial is once per mobile number, so set a reminder before it ends.

- Prime: cancel from Your Account. Amazon says paid members who have not used any benefits can get up to a full refund of the current period.

- In the UAE, the Mashreq noon Rewards Card gives free delivery on noon marketplace orders without a subscription, but noon says you still need noon One for the other benefits.

- Prime Day is for members only. If you join just for it, the 3-month intro offer at 8 a month is the cheapest way in.

## Questions shoppers ask

**Which is cheaper in Saudi Arabia, noon One or Amazon Prime?**

Amazon Prime. It costs SAR 16 a month or SAR 140 a year, while noon One costs SAR 29.99 a month, according to the official pages in October 2026.

**Does noon One include a video streaming service like Prime Video?**

No. In the UAE noon lists IPL streaming at AED 5 for members, but there is no general video library like Prime Video. In Saudi Arabia no streaming benefit is listed.

**Is there a free trial for Amazon Prime?**

At the time of writing, the Prime pages in the UAE and Saudi Arabia show a paid intro offer instead: the first 3 months at 8 a month, then 16 a month. Check the page, as offers change.

**Does Amazon Prime give free talabat or Careem delivery?**

We found no talabat or Careem benefit on the official Prime pages. In the UAE, Prime includes Deliveroo Plus Silver; in Saudi Arabia no food-delivery partner is listed.

**Do noon promo codes still work if I have noon One?**

noon One is a delivery and perks membership, separate from promo codes. Enter the code at checkout and check that the cashback or discount line appears before you pay.
