I can't find an answer to this and most of my searching returns "Prime Student" membership info for college students. My brother has no TV but he has broadband. I want to gift my nieces a Prime Membership, but I don't see how that's possible. I don't want them on my account and it doesn't look like they can have their own because the Prime Membership details specifically state "adult". Even if I let them on my account there would be the simultaneous streaming issue, and they would have to be on a kid's account which isn't what I want (they are in high school). I just want them to be able to access their own prime benefits on their own account.
Anyone know how?

So either "no" or just buy them the regular one.

OP, Amazon has changed their Prime policy.
You can only invite second account if that person is living with you.

If you read the OP, it wasn't asking about inviting them, it was about giving non-adults their own Prime accounts. It even explicitly says "I don't want them on my account".

Give the prime to your brother have your niece be put under his account. I am assuming all Amazon purchase will still have to go through your brother and he would want to control what Prime stuff they can access.

Generally it's not a good idea to circumvent parent's authority, especially it's relative. No matter what to create an Amazon account and use it's service you will still need a parent/guardian involved (legally speaking) As far I know Amazon prime will require a credit card on file.
If he really wants to setup his niece as the primary account then there is nothing stopping them from doing so. Just get a cheap pre-paid credit card and have his niece create an amazon account.
Netflix may be a better service if the idea is to give them access to TV/Movie.
