In case you would like to transfer a domain from one registrar company to another, you will need a unique transfer authorization code, which may be called by many names – an EPP authorization code, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names denote the same thing – a code that the domain name registrant receives from the current domain registrar and gives to the new one upon ordering. Without a valid code, a domain name transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the safety mechanisms against unsolicited transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-code extensions. For even better safety, the code contains numbers and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so in case you would like to transfer one of your domain names, you need to supply the new domain name registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Web Hosting

Getting the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain name registered through us under a web hosting account is surprisingly easy. You will not have to switch between different Control Panel tools, since you can administer both your domains and your shared web hosting account from one and the same place – our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel. To obtain the EPP transfer code for any domain, you only have to visit the Registered Domains section and to click on the tiny EPP sign, which will be located on the right-hand side of any domain name whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will send the code to the domain name owner’s email instantaneously. In case you wish to modify the email, you can do it from the very same section of the Control Panel with only several clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you register a domain under a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you will be able to get its EPP transfer authorization code with only one single mouse click, in case you decide to move it to some other domain registrar. All it takes to do that is to sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, to navigate to the Registered Domains section and to click on the EPP button, which will be next to the domain name. Of course, this button will be there only if the particular generic or country-code domain extension supports transfers with an EPP transfer code. Within one minute, an email that contains the code will be sent to the registrant’s mailbox associated with that domain name. You can update the latter via the very same section of the Control Panel – if the one that is currently listed in the WHOIS details isn’t a valid one. As the change will propagate without any delay, you can request the EPP transfer code immediately after that.
