Transferring a domain name from one registrar company to another ordinarily entails the use of a unique domain name authorization code, which different companies refer to as an EPP key, a domain name password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a protection mechanism against unwanted transfer attempts with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. The code can be obtained only by the owner of the particular domain and is issued by the present registrar company. It must be given to the new registrar company because the transfer cannot be started without it. The code is case-sensitive and ordinarily includes numbers and special characters, so as to hinder unauthenticated people from breaking it. Certain registrar companies even reset the codes of domain names registered through them after a particular interval of time for even greater security.

EPP Transfer Protection in Hosting

You can get the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain that you have registered through our company with just several clicks from the very same Hepsia Control Panel that you’ll use to manage your hosting account. As soon as you go to the Registered Domains section, you will find all your domains neatly listed in alphabetical order. If a particular TLD extension supports transfers between domain name registrars with an EPP transfer code, you will notice an EPP button on the right side of the given domain name. If you click that button, the code will be sent to the email address associated with the Registrant contact for the domain name in question. If you want, you can modify the contact information, including the email, without having to leave this Control Panel section, if the currently listed email address is no longer valid.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you decide 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 a couple of clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domains will be listed in an independent section. Quick-access buttons will permit you to use different functions. To get the EPP transfer code, you simply need to click on the EPP sign, which will be to the right of any domain name whose TLD extension supports transfers with an authorization code. Our system will send the code to the domain name registrant’s email address, which is presently listed in the domain name’s WHOIS record. If you want, you can change this email from the exact same section of the Control Panel before requesting the transfer authorization code. The change will take effect momentarily, so you will not need to wait for the new email address to be displayed on WHOIS sites.
