UPDATE: Jul. 16, 2024, 10:27 a.m. EDT We've updated this story with the seven invite-only deals live at Amazon for Prime Day 2024. As of July 16, all of the invites have been requested for each deal. We'll be monitoring whether any current or new deals become available for day two.
Amazon's invite-only Prime Day deals are back for 2024, but at the time of writing, each deal listing now reads: "This is a high demand deal with limited quantities. All invites for this deal have been claimed."

Last year, Amazon made the mega-sale that is Prime Day even bigger when they introduced their invite-only deals program, which allowed select shoppers a chance to grab extra-exclusive door busters.
Prime Day 2024 is officially here as of July 16, and, unfortunately, if you didn't request an invite for one of the seven invite-only deals already, Amazon appears to have run out of invites for the deals made available so far.
Amazon's sale does run through July 17, so we'll be keeping an eye out if more invites become available before day two, either on the existing seven offers or on new deals.
What are invite-only Prime Day deals?
Predating invite-only deals, Amazon Prime Day has typically included a handful of extra hot-ticket deals that appear unexpectedly and sell out quickly. Buying them, or at least trying to, could be a chaotic and frustrating experience.
The idea behind invite-only deals is that you don't have to be glued to your computer screen during the sale in order to catch these deep discounts while they're live. Instead, Prime members can request an invite to claim these deals. There's still no guarantee you'll get to actually add them to your cart, but it formalizes the process and takes the usual Prime Day buying frenzy down a notch.
What invite-only deals are available during Prime Day 2024?
As of July 15, we've spotted seven invite-only deals, including a pair of Sony headphones, a Peloton, and a SodaStream, matching up perfectly with the deals Amazon teased in a press release earlier this month.
For July's Prime Day sale in 2023, Amazon offered 10 invite-only deals, including a $100 4K Omni TV, saving the lucky few who were chosen 75% on the TV. Fall's Prime Big Deal Days sale brought back slightly less impressive offerings, with six total deals, including a Sony soundbar and Jabra earbuds. For both Prime sales, Amazon ended up adding deals at the last minute — for fall's sale, that ended up including 60% off a 50-inch Omni TV and 60% off a 50-inch Hisense Fire TV.
Between July 10 and July 15, we saw Amazon add one deal, taking the count from six to seven, but we're still waiting on more last-minute deals — perhaps matching the 10 total deals of last Prime Day or following the TV precedent set by the past sales. Considering that all the available invites have been requested as of July 16, we're keeping our fingers crossed for more availability heading into day two.
When do invite-only deals become available?
At the time of writing, all available invites for the deals have been requested. If you've already requested a deal, make sure to check your email July 16 and 17 to see if Amazon has sent you a unique link to shop the deal. If you were not selected, you should also receive notice from Amazon.
Will more invite-only deals become available?
At this point, it appears as if no more invites are available for Prime Day 2024. However, folks who requested invites should check their inbox on both July 16 and 17. We have no confirmation that more deals will become available, but are keeping our eyes out for any surprises over the next two days.

Who can access invite-only Prime Day deals?
We know pretty much nothing about Amazon's invite-only deal selection process, but we do know that you can only request access if you're a member of its Prime subscription service (paid or trial). Signing up for a membership is easy, and can give you access to more Prime-exclusive deals throughout the duration of the sale.
How to shop invite-only Prime Day deals
Shoppers can request invitations to these deals via featured items' product pages in the lead-up to the sale. To request any deals, here's what to do:
Navigate to any invite-only item, then hit "Request invite."
Amazon will automatically put in your request via the email associated with your account. If you're selected to shop the deal, you'll receive an email or mobile notification (if you have the Amazon app) with a unique link to shop the sale on July 16 or July 17. If you're not selected, you'll also be notified.

That's it — it's literally a two-step process.
Shoppers are eligible to put in one request per item, but you're not limited on how many invite-only deals you can shop. For instance, if there are seven available items, you can put in up to seven requests. Once you put in a request, you'll be able to see an "invite requested" notice on the product page.
The best invite-only deals live ahead of Prime Day 2024
Note: As of July 16, all available invites for the following deals have been requested.
![beige Sony WH-CH520 headphones](https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/articles/00szYt78pKKxQbyCxm6iNd5/images-17.fill.size_165x256.v1719846603.jpg)
Why we like it
Less than $40 for a pair of Sony headphones is a great deal, though if you're not into aesthetics this deal isn't quite as steep as Amazon might make it look — the Sony WH-CH520 headphones not in the cappuccino colorway (aka the only ones on an invite-only offer) are usually just $59.99. With that said, $35 is still a good discount — even if you were to benchmark it from the usual $60 asking price — for a pair of headphones that Sony claims have 50 hours of battery life, a custom equalizer through the Sony headphones app, and multipoint connection.

Why we like it
The SodaStream has become a mainstay on invite-only deals: for Prime Day 2023 Amazon offered the E-terra model for $89.99 (down from $159.99) and a SodaStream Art bundle for Prime Big Deal Days at just $110 (down from $195). The Enso is the most expensive bundle offered so far out of the three bundles and comes with one 60-liter CO2 cylinder and one dishwasher safe bottle in addition to the maker. However, it's stainless steel exterior does give it the most premium look of all available SodaStreams, and it appears to be more exclusive — at the time of writing, the Enso isn't currently available on SodaStream's website.

Why we like it
The gold-standard Peloton Original is also offered as an invite-only Prime deal. Instead of the list price of $1,445, Prime members have the opportunity to score the stationary bike for just $1,011, which works out to a 30% discount or a savings of $434. The Peloton bike comes with its own touch-screen display to follow along with workouts, while its compact design it meant to take up no more floor space than a standard yoga mat. The resistance knob allows you to choose how difficult you'd like your ride to feel, and the headphone jack or Bluetooth connectivity allows you to tune into your chosen workout without bothering others in the room.

Why we like it
We've seen Foreo invite-only deals before, so we're happy to see something from the product line make a return this Prime Day. The Luna mini 3 isn't the newest of its kind, nor is it particularly new — the mini 4 came out in 2022. However, it is on the cheaper end for the brand — the Foreo Luna mini 4 will run you $199, while this invite-only deal gets you the Luna mini 3, a cleansing balm, and a cleanser for $103. Probably not the best deal if you're looking to add just a compact cleansing brush to your tried and true skincare routine, but if you're looking for more of a total revamp, the bundle could be a good place to start.
