Hello @Seller_ZCr3jNXAwN0MS,

We understand your frustration with having to enter OTPs multiple times a day. This increased security measure is designed to protect your account, but we recognize it can be inconvenient.

Here are some suggestions to help manage this:

  • Ensure your account details, especially your email and phone number, are up-to-date.
  • Use a trusted device and browser when logging in. This can reduce the frequency of OTP requests.
  • Clear your browser cache and cookies regularly, as outdated data can trigger additional security checks.
  • Consider using the Amazon Seller app on your mobile device, which may require less frequent authentication.
  • If you're using a VPN, try logging in without it, as changing IP addresses can prompt more security checks.
  • Enable two-step verification on your account for an added layer of security that might reduce OTP prompts.
  • If these steps don't help and the issue persists, please contact Seller Support for further assistance. They can investigate if there are any specific issues with your account triggering these frequent OTP requests.

If you still need support please open a seller case and share the case ID in this thread.

Cheers,

Micah

Tonight I got a code THAT DID NOT WORK. I typed it in THREE TIMES EXACTLY AS GIVEN and it would NOT allow me into my account.

I had to request ANOTHER code. Thankfully that worked and thankfully I have endless time on my hands to play these stupid games.

Save yourself a lot of frustration by getting the Amazon authenticator. Also make absolutely sure that the time on your phone and laptop correspond with the time zone your are in.
