Study: Millennials More Likely To Shop Amazon Prime Day Than Gen Z

With Amazon Prime Day on the horizon, a new study that surveyed more than 1,000 consumers revealed that Millennials are more likely to buy from the retail giant, and take advantage of Prime Day’s exclusive deals, especially when compared to Gen Z. In fact, 79% of Millennials reported they had made a purchase on Amazon within the past month.

According to the report from Yes Lifecycle Marketing, titled: A Marketer’s Guide To Reaching The Generations, Gen Z is more likely to sit out Prime Day: 31% reported they shop at non-Amazon retailers because they prefer the in-store shopping experience.
