Source: https://tempsmsverify.com/temp-number/amazon · Last updated: 2026-10-23

An Amazon OTP number receives the one-time password Amazon texts when you create or verify your own account. TempSMSVerify shows the 6-digit code in your browser and charges you only if the SMS arrives.

## Can I use a temporary number for Amazon OTP?

Yes, for your own account. Buy an Amazon OTP number on TempSMSVerify, enter it when Amazon asks for a mobile number, and the 6-digit OTP shows in your dashboard. You pay only if the code arrives. Afterward, switch sign-in codes and delivery OTPs to an email or a number you own, since the temporary number expires.

## Steps

1. **Add balance.** Top up at least $5 with Card via Stripe (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay); Crypto (USDC or SOL on Solana).
2. **Buy an Amazon number.** Choose Amazon and the country of the Amazon store you shop in, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, India, Germany.
3. **Enter it on Amazon.** Type the number where Amazon asks for a mobile number, with the matching country code.
4. **Enter the 6-digit OTP.** Copy the one-time password from your dashboard before it expires.
5. **Secure the account.** Confirm your email and turn on 2-Step Verification with an authenticator app.

## How does Amazon phone verification work?

When you create an account with a mobile number, Amazon texts a one-time password to confirm it. Amazon also sends a six-digit passcode when a sign-in looks different, for example after you clear cookies or log in from a new browser, device or location.

The same number is used for password resets and, if you turn it on, 2-Step Verification. Amazon says it will never contact you first to ask for your password or a verification passcode.

## When an Amazon OTP number makes sense

An Amazon OTP number is meant for your own shopping account, when you would rather not attach your personal number to it yet.

- Open your own account while your SIM is out of reach, for example when traveling.
- Keep a household or hobby purchasing account apart from your personal number.
- Test your own app or store integration that signs in to Amazon.

## Watch out for delivery OTPs

For some high-value packages, Amazon uses Secure Delivery. On delivery day it sends a six-digit OTP to your registered email, SMS or WhatsApp, and the driver needs it to hand over the box. If the only phone on your account is a temporary number that has expired, you will not get that code by SMS.

Make sure the email on your account is current, and add a number you own before you order anything valuable.

## Amazon OTP number: errors and fixes

Amazon throttles repeated requests and may switch you to email or a puzzle check. The table covers the usual cases.

| Problem | Likely cause | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OTP not received | Amazon has not sent it, or delivery failed | Wait a few minutes. Cancel after about 2 minutes for a refund |
| Mobile number already in use | The number is linked to another Amazon account | Cancel and buy a different number |
| Invalid OTP | An older code or a typo | Use only the newest code in your dashboard |
| Puzzle or extra check appears | Amazon's security check on the sign-in | Complete it once, then request the code |
| Too many attempts | Amazon paused new codes for a while | Stop and try again later |

## Pay only if the Amazon OTP arrives

When you buy an Amazon number, TempSMSVerify freezes the price in your balance. The charge goes through only when an SMS reaches the number. If Amazon never sends the OTP before the number expires after up to 20 minutes, the full amount returns automatically.

After verification, set up 2-Step Verification with an authenticator app, so future sign-in codes do not depend on the temporary number.

## Responsible use on Amazon

Use TempSMSVerify only for your own Amazon account, and follow Amazon's Conditions of Use. Fake or paid reviews, multiple accounts for promotions or returns, getting back on after a closure, seller account workarounds and anything involving someone else's payment details are not allowed by Amazon or by us. Seller, payments and AWS accounts need a number you own long term. Read our Acceptable Use Policy at /acceptable-use.

## FAQ

### What is an Amazon OTP number?

It is a phone number you use to receive the one-time password Amazon texts during phone verification. With TempSMSVerify, it is a number reserved for up to 20 minutes that shows Amazon's 6-digit code in your browser. You pay only if the code arrives, and an automatic refund covers the rest.

### How many digits is the Amazon OTP?

Amazon's sign-in and verification passcodes are six digits. Secure Delivery OTPs for valuable packages are also six digits. Each new request replaces the previous code, so enter only the latest one shown in your TempSMSVerify dashboard, and do it quickly before it expires.

### Why am I not receiving the Amazon OTP?

Amazon may be throttling repeated requests, showing a puzzle first, or declining that number. Complete any check, request once, and wait a few minutes. With TempSMSVerify, if no SMS arrives you can cancel after about 2 minutes, and your frozen balance is refunded automatically and in full.

### Can I create an Amazon account without a phone number?

In many Amazon stores you can sign up with an email address, though Amazon may still ask for a mobile number during sign-up or later security checks. If it does, a TempSMSVerify number receives that OTP. Keep your email current, since the temporary number stops receiving messages once it expires.

### Will I get Amazon delivery OTPs on a temporary number?

Only while the number is active, which is up to 20 minutes. Amazon Secure Delivery sends the OTP to your registered email, SMS or WhatsApp on delivery day. If you expect valuable packages, add a number you own to your account and keep your email up to date.

### Should I use a temporary number for Amazon 2-Step Verification?

No. 2-Step Verification protects your orders and payment methods, and a temporary number stops working after it expires, which could lock you out. Amazon supports authenticator apps for 2-Step Verification. Use one, and keep a phone number you own as a backup method.

### Is it allowed to use a temporary number for Amazon?

Verifying your own shopping account is a normal use. Fake reviews, multiple accounts for promotions, coming back after a closure, seller account workarounds and payment fraud break Amazon's rules and our Acceptable Use Policy at /acceptable-use. Amazon can close accounts used that way.
