If you want to transfer a domain name from one domain registrar to another, you will need a special authorization code, which may be referred to by many names – an EPP authorization code, an Auth code, a domain password, and so on. All these names refer to one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner receives from the present domain registrar and gives to the new one during the order process. Without an authentic code, a domain transfer procedure cannot be initiated and this is one of the safety mechanisms against unwanted transfer attempts used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For even better safety, the code includes numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you want to transfer one of your domains, you need to provide the new domain name registrar with the correct code.
EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting
Obtaining the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain name registered through us under a cloud web hosting account is incredibly easy. You will not need to switch between different admin interfaces, since you can manage both your domain names and your shared hosting account from the exact same location – our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To obtain the transfer code for any domain, you simply have to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the mini EPP logo, which will be located 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 straight away. If you’d like to change the email, you can do it from the exact same section of the Control Panel with only several clicks.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you register a domain under a semi-dedicated server account with us, you’ll be able to obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with only one single mouse click, if you decide to move it to some other registrar. All it takes to do that is to log in to your Hepsia Control Panel, to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the EPP button, which will be to the right of the domain. Of course, such a button will be there only if the particular generic or country-code TLD extension supports transfers with an EPP transfer code. Within one minute, an email message that includes the code will be sent to the registrant’s email address associated with that domain name. You can change the latter via the exact same section of the Control Panel – in case the one that’s presently listed in the WHOIS database isn’t a valid one. Since the update will propagate without delay, you can request the EPP transfer code directly after that.
