If you would like to transfer a domain name from one domain registrar to another, you will need a unique transfer code, which may be called by multiple names – an EPP authorization code, an Auth-Info code, a domain name password, etc. All these names designate one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner gets from the present domain registrar and gives to the new one at the time of the order. Without a valid code, a domain transfer process cannot be initiated and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unsanctioned transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-code extensions. For better safety, the code contains digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you want to transfer one of your domains, you have to supply the new domain registrar with the right code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain name registered through us under a shared hosting account is very easy. You won’t have to switch between different interfaces, since you can manage both your domain names and your shared hosting account from one location – our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To obtain the EPP transfer code for any domain, you simply need to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the small EPP sign, which will be situated to the right of any domain name whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will email the code to the domain registrant’s email immediately. If you would like to change the email, you can do it from the very same section of the hosting Control Panel with only a couple of mouse clicks.

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 company, you can obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with a couple of clicks from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domains will be shown in an autonomous Control Panel section. Quick-access buttons will enable you to use separate features. To obtain the EPP transfer code, you only need to click on the EPP logo, which will be next to any domain name whose extension supports transfers with a transfer authorization code. Our system will send the code to the domain registrant’s email, which is currently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If you wish, you can modify this email address from the same section of the Control Panel before requesting the transfer code. The change will take effect right away, so you don’t need to wait for the new email address to be published on WHOIS web sites.
