In today’s digital age, Internet security is a major concern. As an Amazon seller, it is important to protect your account from unauthorized access. To enhance account security, Amazon has introduced the Authenticator app, which provides sellers with a two-factor authentication mechanism.
Why do you need an Authenticator app?
Amazon seller accounts can be targets of fraud, so extra security measures are needed to prevent unauthorized access. The Authenticator app allows you to generate a one-time verification code when you sign in, without having to rely on text messages or voice calls. This method is not only more convenient, but also more secure because it is not affected by mobile signal or Internet connection.
How to use the Authenticator app?
Download the appropriate app:
For iOS and Android device users, go to the corresponding app store to download Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator.
If you use a Windows device, search for and download the appropriate Authenticator app in the Windows Store.
Install and configure the app:
After downloading and installing the selected Authenticator app, follow the app’s instructions to set it up.
In the Login settings in Amazon Seller Central, select Add Authenticator App and scan the QR code displayed by the app.
Generate a verification code:
Each time you log in to Amazon Seller Central, open the Authenticator App and generate a corresponding verification code.
Enter the generated verification code to complete the login process.
Why choose the Authenticator App?
No cell service or internet connection required: The Authenticator App works without relying on a cell signal or internet connection, ensuring that you can log in to your account at any time and from any place.
Multi-device support: The Authenticator App can be installed and used on multiple devices, providing more flexible security protection for accounts with multiple users.
Increased security: Verification codes generated by the Authenticator App are more secure than receiving verification codes via SMS or voice calls because they are not transmitted over unsecured communication channels.
By using the Authenticator App, you can improve the security of your Amazon seller account and reduce the risk of unauthorized access. Download and configure the Authenticator App today to protect your account from fraudulent activities!
