If you’d like to transfer a domain name from one domain registrar to another, you’ll need a unique domain name authorization code, which may be referred to by various names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain password, etc. All these names refer to the very same thing – a code that the domain name registrant gets from the present domain registrar and provides to the new one upon ordering. Without a genuine code, a domain transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unsanctioned transfers used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For better security, the code comprises of numbers and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so in case you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you have to provide the new domain registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Website Hosting

If you’ve got a domain registered through our company and you have a shared website hosting account with us, obtaining its EPP authorization code is astonishingly easy. You will not need to switch between different systems, as you can administer all your domain names via the exact same Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is used to administer your web hosting account. You will see all existing domain names the moment you sign in and next to the domains whose extensions require an EPP authorization code in order to be transferred, you’ll notice a small EPP icon. All it takes to obtain that code is to click on the icon. The code is always emailed to the domain name owner’s email account, so in case the one that you gave initially is not valid anymore, you can modify it with a few clicks of the mouse from the exact same section.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you wish to transfer any domain name that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another domain name registrar, you can obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with several mouse clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel. All registered domains will be listed in an autonomous section of the Control Panel. Quick-access buttons will permit you to use different functions. To obtain the transfer code, you only have to click on the EPP symbol, which will be on the right-hand side of any domain whose extension supports transfers with a transfer authorization code. Our system will email the code to the domain owner’s email address, which is presently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If you want, you can update this email address from the very same Control Panel section before requesting the EPP transfer authorization code. The update will propagate instantaneously, so you do not need to wait for the new email to be displayed on WHOIS websites.
