If you would like to transfer a domain name from one company to another, you will need to go through several safety steps. One of them is getting a unique EPP authorization code from the present domain name registrar – on the condition that you are the domain registrant, since the code is emailed to the domain owner’s email and no one else can obtain it. You’ll need to give this code to the new registrar, or else they won’t be able to initiate the domain transfer. The EPP authentication codes are case-sensitive and may contain numbers or special symbols such as commas or dots, which can be easily mistyped, so make sure you copy and paste the correct code. As an additional safety measure, the transfer code for a domain may be altered regularly. Some registrars call this code a domain secret, a domain password or an Auth key as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Website Hosting

If you have a domain registered through our company and you have a shared website hosting account with us, obtaining its EPP authentication code is extremely easy. You won’t have to log in and out of different admin interfaces, as you can administer all your domains through the very same Hepsia Control Panel, which is used to manage your shared web hosting account. You will see all active domains once you sign in and on the right side of the domain names whose extensions require an EPP authentication code in order to be transferred, you will see a mini EPP icon. All it takes to obtain this code is to click the icon. The code is always sent to the registrant’s email address, so if the one that you gave initially is no longer valid, you can modify it with several clicks from the exact same section.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you decide to transfer any domain that is registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another registrar, you can obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with a couple of clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domains are shown in an autonomous section of the Control Panel. Quick-access controls will permit you to use different functions. To get the transfer code, you just have to click the EPP logo, which will be next to any domain whose TLD extension supports transfers with a transfer authorization code. Our system will send the code to the registrant’s email, which is currently listed in the domain name’s WHOIS record. If needed, you can update this email address from the same Control Panel section before requesting the transfer authorization code. The change will take effect instantly, so you will not have to wait for the new email to appear on WHOIS websites.
