The shopping day packed with deals galore normally takes place in July but was scuttled due to the coronavirus pandemic. It is also the company's biggest sales day of the year, surpassing Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined, according to the company.
In 2019, the e-commerce giant raked in over $7 billion over a roughly 48 hour period, according to Statista.
The company also uses the event to lure new customers. "Amazon welcomed more new Prime members on July 15 than any previous day, and almost as many on July 16 — making these the two biggest days ever for member signups" the company disclosed last year.
Shares of Amazon have soared 66% so far this year.
