In case you want to transfer a domain name from one registrar company to another, you’ll need a special code, which may be referred to by many names – an EPP authorization code, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names refer to the very same thing – a code that the domain name owner obtains from the present registrar and provides to the new one during the order process. Without a genuine code, a domain name transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the safety measures against unsolicited transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-code extensions. For greater safety, the code comprises of digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so in case you wish to transfer one of your domains, you need to supply the new domain name registrar with the right code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Website Hosting

You can get the EPP transfer code for any domain name that you have registered through us with only a couple of clicks from the same Hepsia Control Panel that you’ll use to administer your website hosting account. Once you visit the Registered Domains section, you will find all your domains conveniently listed in alphabetical order. In case some extension supports transfers between registrars with an EPP code, you will see an EPP button to the right of the respective domain name. If you click that button, the code will be sent to the email associated with the Registrant contact for the given domain. If you want, you can update the contact information, including the email address, without having to leave this Control Panel section, in case the currently listed email isn’t valid anymore.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a semi-dedicated server account with us and you’ve registered a domain that you’d like to transfer, you can get the EPP transfer authorization code astonishingly easy through the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you’ll manage both your account and your domain names. If you go to the Registered Domains section, you’ll see an EPP button on the right side of your domains, on the condition that their TLD extensions support transfers between domain registrars with such a code. All codes are sent automatically by our system to the registrant’s email address to ensure that only the owner of the domain can obtain this information. If the current address is not valid, you can change it with a couple of clicks of the mouse without leaving this section of the Control Panel. The update is instant, so you’ll be able to request the EPP code for the particular domain right away.
