If you’d like to transfer a domain name from one registrar company to another, you’ll need a special domain authorization code, which may be called by various names – an EPP authorization code, an Auth code, a domain password, etc. All these names refer to one and the same thing – a code that the domain owner receives from the current domain registrar and provides to the new one during the order process. Without a genuine code, a domain transfer cannot be started and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even greater security, the code comprises of digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you would like to transfer one of your domains, you have to present the new domain registrar with the right code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Website Hosting

If you have a shared website hosting plans, you’ve registered a domain name with our company and you wish to transfer it away from us, you can get its EPP authentication code with less than a couple of clicks. When you sign into your Hepsia Control Panel and visit the Registered Domains section, you will see all the domain names that you’ve registered through our company displayed in alphabetical order. On the right-hand side of each domain, you’ll see a small EPP icon for all generic and country-code top-level domain name extensions that need an EPP code in order to be transferred between registrar companies. Clicking the icon will email the code to the domain name registrant’s email immediately. In the same section you can also see and ultimately update the email address, if the one there isn’t valid anymore.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can swiftly obtain the transfer authentication code for any domain registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you decide to transfer it. This can be accomplished through the exact same Control Panel, via which you manage your account, so you will not have to switch between different Control Panels. All you need to do is go to the domain management section of the Control Panel and click the EPP button associated with the domain name that you want to transfer, on the condition that its extension supports transfers with such a code. Our system emails all codes automatically to the domain registrant’s email listed in the domain’s WHOIS record, so if the email address that is currently entered is out of date, you can edit it with a few mouse clicks without having to leave the domain management section of the Control Panel.
