Stream Amazon Prime Video Anywhere with a VPN There's a world's worth of Prime content out there: but geo restrictions might prevent you from streaming the good stuff, depending where you are. So get a VPN that'll let you see all the best Prime Video has to offer — with no limits.
How to watch Amazon Prime Video with a VPN
Any VPN will do, but HMA VPN is your best choice by far: here's a discounted 1-month subscription for HMA VPN to see what we mean.
Log into your Amazon account
For best results, use an Amazon UK or Amazon DE account. They're really stingy with Amazon US accounts.
Choose a server
This is where the magic happens: pick a proxy server location where the show you want to watch is available and connect your VPN. HMA VPN has servers that are optimized for streaming, and we suggest you use those for Amazon Prime Video.
Watch away!
Turn up the volume and turn down the lights — it's movie time.
Instant access to your favorite TV shows, movies and Amazon Originals
Amazon Prime's not hurting for cool content: from the darkly satirical "The Boys" to the hilarious "Mozart in the Jungle", there are tons of Amazon Originals to enjoy. But if you want to see everything they have to offer, you'll need to wrestle with geo-restrictions which can limit what you can stream in your current country. That's where a VPN comes in — by tricking Amazon into thinking you're somewhere you're not, you can view content you'd otherwise need a plane ticket to see.
You might be wondering...
What VPN works for Amazon Prime Video?
Unfortunately, Amazon isn't exactly on-board with people using VPNs to get around its geo-restrictions, and if it detects you're using a VPN, it will probably try to block that VPN's IP address.
HMA VPN works for Amazon Prime Video, but it works best with Amazon.UK or Amazon.DE accounts. We can work for Amazon.US accounts, but honestly, it's kind of hit-or-miss. We're working on it.
Can I use a VPN to watch Amazon Prime Video?
Yes. We'd look pretty silly writing this whole page if you couldn't.
Can I use my Amazon Prime account abroad?
Yep! Amazon will let you do it, although it may try to limit the shows you can stream. Use a VPN to connect to a proxy server where you live to get around that, so "traveling" and "expanding your worldview" won't get in the way of your unhealthy binging sessions.
Why can't I watch Amazon Prime Video abroad?
Long story. The short version is that if Amazon didn't make content itself, it must have bought the right to stream (AKA, distribute) the content from whoever made it. However, the group that made the content may have also told Amazon they can't stream their content in certain regions of the world, for a host of different reasons. Either way, it's Amazon's job to make sure that people outside the approved regions don't get to access the content using their service. We call that geo-blocking, and we don't like it very much.
How do I watch UK or DE content on Amazon Prime?
Turn on your VPN and select a UK-based or DE-based server. Next.
How do I change my location on Amazon Prime?
Easy. First, log into your Amazon Prime account. Then, go to "Accounts & Lists", click "Your Content and Devices", then "Preferences". Click the down arrow on the right of "Country/Region Settings" and pick wherever strikes your fancy.
Can I watch Amazon Prime Video outside the UK?
You know it. (Literally, if you've been reading the rest of this page.) Normally you'd be restricted to Amazon Prime Original content, but with a little help from your VPN, you can get access to the whole gosh-darn library.
Why does my Amazon Prime Video video say unavailable?
It's possible they detected you're in a country where that content isn't available. If you're not using a VPN, turn it on and select a different region and see if that works. If you are using a VPN, try selecting a different server or using HMA's IP Refresh feature and see if that works.
