Amazon features deals of the day which are 24-hour deals on specific items. There are also lightning deals that occur throughout the day. These deals are featured on specific items for a short period of time. These deals may not last long at all as the item may sell out quickly. 

Lastly, there are invite-only deals. In order to participate in these sales, Prime members have to request an invitation ahead of time.

There are also early Prime Day deals available before the actual event occurs. 

Amazon Prime Day is hosted by the digital retailer in July in celebration of its birthday. The first Prime Day occurred on July 15, 2015, to celebrate the company’s 20th birthday. Since then, it has gone from 24-hours to 48-hours. 

Amazon Prime Day almost always happens in July and lasts two days. Though, in 2020, it was hosted in October, and in 2021, it was in June. For the most part, the date is set for around July 15. In 2023, Prime Day will be from July 11 to July 12.
