Amazon account verification without a phone – how are people doing this now?
I’m trying to create an Amazon account for my second small business, but it keeps asking for a phone number for verification. The problem is I don’t want to use my personal number again, and I’d prefer to keep things separate. Has anyone figured out a legit way around this in 2025?

I had to solve this exact problem when setting up a business account for managing orders separately. Using the same number twice often leads to flagging or verification delays. The method that worked for me is detailed here: https://esimplus.me/blog/how-to-verify-amazon-account-without-phone-number. It outlines a reliable approach that doesn’t involve reusing your main line. You’ll find options like virtual numbers that work for SMS without breaching Amazon’s policies. I followed the steps and got verified in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommend reading it all the way through, especially the section on number providers they tested.
