This thread has been dramatically expanded to include a $2.99/month for a year offer, directly from HBO Max. You don't have to fool with the Amazon convolutions and issues. As I was trying to work out for myself, and glad i don't have to deal with the Amazon layer, plus it opens it up to non Amazon and non-fire stick people. I saw lots of pages of posts and sped on to the end, and I recommend you take a look there too and/or change the main post to include the latest info.
Hope this helps!

So the moral of the story is ... wait and see if there's a better way to sign up this week.
FWIW, I had an account that expired in August. I signed into that account through the app on my iPad (not the website), got the message that I needed to resubscribe, and immediately saw the deal. I subscribed right away... Billing is through Apple.
Then I read some other comments about success on Amazon devices (including a tablet) but again, only through the app. So I tried on my Fire TV stick. I had to sign out of my account that I just renewed, and then chose the new subscription button. I immediately saw the offer again. (Screenshot 1)
Tried the same on my Roku and was just offered the standard subscription prices. (screenshot 2)
I also first tried this on my Android phone through the website and the app and wasn't shown the offer.
So 3rd party billing seems to be a factor - except for Android and Roku. And it doesn't seem that you need to be a previous subscriber. Hope that helps!
"right browser". What do you mean? Ad blocker to blockout ads?

I had the HBO Max with ads version in the past and the ads were brutal. They were long and often and caused my to cancel my subscription. And that was also with a deep discount like this and it still wasn't worth it to me.
