Amazon uses One-Time Passwords (OTPs) as a crucial part of its security measures, primarily within its two-factor authentication (2FA) or multi-factor authentication (MFA) systems. Here's a breakdown:
What it is: An Amazon OTP is a temporary, automatically generated code that is used to verify your identity when you log in to your Amazon account. It adds an extra layer of security beyond just your password. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Two-Factor%20Authentication
How it works: When you enable 2FA on your Amazon account, you'll be prompted to choose a method for receiving OTPs. This can be through SMS to your phone number, an authenticator app (like Google Authenticator, Authy, or Amazon's own authenticator), or email (though this is less secure).
Why it's important: OTPs significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access to your account, even if someone knows your password. They are a key component of account security. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Account%20Security

Troubleshooting: If you're not receiving OTPs, check your phone number or email address in your Amazon account settings. Also, ensure your authenticator app is properly synced. If issues persist, contact Amazon customer support.
