Transferring a domain from one registrar company to another traditionally involves the use of a unique transfer code, which different registrar companies call an EPP authorization code, a domain name password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a safety mechanism against unsanctioned transfer attempts with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. It can be obtained only by the owner of the specific domain and is issued by the current domain name registrar company. It must be given to the new domain name registrar company because the transfer procedure cannot be initiated without it. The code is case-sensitive and normally contains numbers and special characters, so as to hinder unauthenticated people from deciphering it. Some registrar companies even change the codes of domain names registered through them after a particular amount of time for even greater safety.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting

You can obtain the EPP transfer code for any domain that you’ve registered through us with only a couple of clicks from the exact same Hepsia Control Panel that you will use to administer your cloud web hosting account. As soon as you visit the Registered Domains section, you’ll find all your domains neatly displayed in alphabetical order. In case a particular TLD extension supports transfers between registrar companies with an EPP transfer code, you will see an EPP button next to the given domain. If you click that button, the code will be sent to the email associated with the Registrant contact for the given domain dame. If you wish, you can modify the contact details, including the email address, without needing to leave this section of the Control Panel, if the currently listed email address is not valid anymore.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you register a domain name under a semi-dedicated server account with us, you will be able to get its EPP transfer authorization code with only a click of the mouse, in case you decide to move it to a different company. All it takes to do that is to log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, to visit the Registered Domains section and to click on the EPP button, which will be on the right-hand side of the domain. Of course, this button will be available only if the given generic or country-code domain extension supports transfers with an EPP transfer code. Within sixty seconds, an email message that includes the EPP code will be sent to the domain name owner’s email account associated with that domain name. You can edit the latter through the very same Control Panel section – if the one that’s presently listed in the WHOIS register is not valid. Since the update will propagate without any delay, you can request the EPP transfer code right after that.
