If you want to transfer a domain from one registrar company to another, you’ll need a special transfer authorization code, which may be called by many names – an EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, etc. All these names designate the exact same thing – a code that the domain registrant gets from the current domain registrar and gives to the new one during the order process. Without an authentic code, a domain transfer process cannot be started and this is one of the protection measures against unsanctioned transfers used with all generic and with most country-code extensions. For even better security, the code contains digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so if you’d like to transfer one of your domain names, you need to present the new domain name registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Website Hosting

You can get the EPP transfer code for any domain that you’ve registered with us with only a few mouse clicks from the same Hepsia Control Panel that you’ll use to manage your website hosting account. Once you visit the Registered Domains section, you’ll find all your domain names conveniently listed in alphabetical order. In case a certain extension supports transfers between registrars with an EPP transfer code, you will see an EPP button on the right side of the given domain name. If you click on that button, the code will be sent to the email address associated with the Registrant contact for the given domain dame. If needed, you can modify the contact details, including the email address, without having to leave this section of the Control Panel, in case the currently entered email is no longer valid.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server account with us and you’ve registered a domain that you want to transfer, you can get the EPP transfer authorization code amazingly easy through the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you’ll manage both your account and your domains. If you visit the Registered Domains section, you’ll see an EPP symbol to the right of your domain names, on the condition that their extensions support transfers between domain name registrars with such a code. All codes are emailed automatically by our system to the registrant’s email address to make sure that only the owner of the domain name can obtain this information. If the currently entered email isn’t valid anymore, you can update it with a couple of mouse clicks without the need to leave this section of the Control Panel. The change is instantaneous, so you’ll be able to request the EPP transfer code for the particular domain straight away.
