Transferring a domain name from one company to another usually entails the use of a unique transfer authorization code, which different companies call an EPP authorization code, a domain password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a safety mechanism against unwanted transfer attempts with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. It can be obtained only by the owner of the specific domain and is provided by the current registrar company. It must be given to the new registrar because the transfer cannot be initiated without it. The code is case-sensitive and frequently contains digits and special characters, so as to stop unauthorized people from breaking it. Some domain registrars even change the codes of domain names registered through them periodically for even greater safety.

EPP Transfer Protection in Web Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain registered through our company under a web hosting account is unbelievably easy. You will not have to switch between different interfaces, as you can manage both your domains and your shared hosting account from one single location – our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. To get the transfer code for any domain, you simply need to go to the Registered Domains section and to click on the tiny EPP logo, which will be located to the right of any domain name whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will send the code to the domain registrant’s email momentarily. In case you wish to edit the email, you can do it from the exact same section of the Control Panel with just a couple of mouse clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a semi-dedicated server account with us and you have registered a domain that you’d like to transfer, you can get the EPP transfer code stunningly easy through the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you will administer both your domain names and your account. If you go to the Registered Domains section, you’ll notice an EPP icon on the right side of your domain names, as long as their TLD 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 owner of the domain can see this info. If the current address is not valid anymore, you can edit it with a couple of clicks of the mouse without having to leave this section of the Control Panel. The change is instant, so you’ll be able to request the EPP code for the specific domain right away.
