Amazon India Has Started Giving A OTP To Customers To Complete Delivery For High Value Orders To Offer A More Secure Shopping Experience. The OTP will need to be entered on the delivery agent's device to complete and confirm the delivery. Additionally, the online marketplace has been spotted offering a 'No Rush Delivery' option under which customers will receive a cashback worth Rs. 15. The latest developments emerge days after the India subsidiary of the Seattle, Washington-based company celebrated its fifth anniversary in the country by giving a cashback worth Rs. 250 to customers spending Rs. 1,000 or more using a digital payment method.
The new OTP feature comes into action when you make an order on Amazon India. The online marketplace gives a unique six-digit OTP in the message confirming the order. This OTP needs to be entered on the delivery agent's device to complete and confirm the delivery.
Importantly, the OTP feature seems to have been implemented earlier this month and is available on orders of a specific value. This means you won't get OTPs on every single order you place on Amazon India. Having said that, since the feature exists majorly for orders containing expensive items, it is likely to limit the instances of deliveries to the wrong person, and possibly even limit theft by personnel in the logistics teams.amazon otp cut gadgets 360 Amazon OTP
In addition to the feature sending OTPs on specific orders, Amazon India has started providing a No Rush Delivery option on certain orders. The new option is designed for orders that don't requiredurgent deliveries. Moreover, customers opting for the new option receive a Amazon Pay cashback worth Rs. 15.
