If you’d like to transfer a domain from one domain name registrar to another, you will need a special transfer code, which may be called by various names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain password, etc. All these names denote the very same thing – a code that the domain name owner gets from the present domain registrar and gives to the new one during the order process. Without an authentic code, a domain name transfer process cannot be started and this is one of the protection measures against unwanted transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even better security, the code includes digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so if you want to transfer one of your domain names, you need to provide the new registrar with the right code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Hosting

Getting the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain registered through us under a hosting account is astonishingly easy. You won’t have to switch between different tools, since you can manage both your domains and your shared hosting account from one single place – our in-house created Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To get the EPP transfer code for any domain name, you just have to go to the Registered Domains section and to click the small EPP sign, which will be located to the right of any domain name whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will send the code to the domain name owner’s email address momentarily. In case you would like to change the email, you can do it from the same section of the hosting Control Panel with just a few mouse clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can effortlessly get the transfer code for any domain name registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you decide to transfer it. This can be accomplished through the same Control Panel, via which you manage your account, so you will not have to switch between different interfaces. All you will need to do is go to the domain management section of the Control Panel and click the EPP button for the domain name that you wish to transfer, as long as its TLD extension supports transfers with 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the domain registrant’s email listed in the domain’s WHOIS record, so if the email address that is currently listed is outdated, you can edit it with a couple of clicks without needing to leave the domain management section of the Control Panel.
