If you would like to transfer a domain name from one domain registrar to another, you will need to pass through a couple of security steps. One of them is obtaining a unique EPP code from the current domain name registrar – on the condition that you are the registrant, since the code is emailed to the domain owner’s mailbox and nobody else can see it. You’ll need to give this code to the new domain name registrar, otherwise they will not be able to start the domain transfer. The EPP codes are case-sensitive and may include digits or special symbols such as commas or dots, which can be easily misentered, so make sure you copy/paste the right code. As an extra protection measure, the transfer code for a domain may be altered regularly. Certain domain registrars refer to this code as an Auth key, a domain secret or a domain password as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain name registered through our company under a cloud hosting account is exceptionally easy. You will not have to sign in and out of different user interfaces, as you can administer both your domains and your shared web hosting account from one single location – our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To get the EPP transfer code for any domain name, you only have to go to the Registered Domains section and to click on the mini EPP sign, which will be situated on the right-hand side of any domain whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will send the code to the domain owner’s email address instantaneously. In case you would like to update the email, you can do it from the very same section of the Control Panel with only a couple of mouse clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you’ve got a semi-dedicated server account with us and you have registered a domain name that you’d like to transfer, you can get the EPP transfer authorization code amazingly easy through the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you’ll administer both your domain names and your account. If you visit the Registered Domains section, you will notice an EPP logo on the right side of your domains, on the condition that their extensions support transfers between registrars with such a code. All codes are emailed automatically by our system to the registrant’s email to ensure that only the domain owner can receive this information. In case the currently listed email address isn’t valid anymore, you can update it with several mouse clicks without having to leave this Control Panel section. The update is instantaneous, so you will be able to request the EPP code for the particular domain right away.
