Amazon Music has officially launched in Mexico.
Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Plus, Echo Spot, and the Amazon Smart Plug are also available for pre-order in Mexico today (November 7) and will begin shipping next week.
The Alexa voice assistant has also “learned to speak and understand Spanish tailored for Mexico”, according to Amazon, adding that “developers around the world are creating skills and devices with Alexa built-in for Mexican customers”.
Starting today, eligible customers who are not already Prime members can try Prime Music with a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime.
Eligible customers in Mexico can also sign up for a free, three-month trial of Amazon Music Unlimited for a limited time before choosing from three plan options.
The Amazon Music Unlimited Individual Plan will cost MXN$99 per month or MXN$990 per year for Prime members only.
