If you want to transfer a domain from one registrar to another, you’ll have to go through a couple of security steps. One of them is obtaining a special EPP code from the current registrar – on the condition that you are the registrant, since the code is emailed to the domain owner’s email and nobody else can see it. You’ll have to provide this code to the new domain name registrar, or else they will not be able to start the transfer. The EPP codes are case-sensitive and may contain numbers or special symbols such as dots or commas, which can be easily miswritten, so make sure you copy & paste the correct code. As an extra safety measure, the transfer code for a domain name may be altered on a regular basis. Certain domain name registrars call this code a domain secret, a domain password or an Auth key as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting

Getting the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain name registered through us under a cloud web hosting account is remarkably easy. You won’t need to switch between different admin interfaces, as you can manage both your domain names and your shared hosting account from the same place – our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel. To get the EPP transfer code for any domain name, you only need 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 name whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will send the code to the registrant’s email straight away. If you wish to update the email, you can do it from the very same section of the hosting Control Panel with only several clicks of the mouse.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server account with our company and you have registered a domain that you wish to transfer, you can obtain the EPP transfer authentication code unbelievably easy through the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you’ll manage both your domain names and your account. If you go to the Registered Domains section, you’ll notice an EPP icon to the right of your domain names, as long as their extensions support transfers between registrar companies with such a code. All codes are sent automatically by our system to the registrant’s email to make sure that only the domain name owner can see this information. If the currently entered address is no longer valid, you can update it with a couple of clicks without needing to leave this Control Panel section. The change is instantaneous, so you’ll be able to request the EPP transfer code for the particular domain right away.
