In case you would like to transfer a domain name from one registrar to another, you will need a unique domain name authorization code, which may be called by various names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names designate one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner receives from the present domain registrar and provides to the new one upon ordering. Without a valid code, a transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the security mechanisms against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For even greater security, the code contains digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you need to supply the new domain registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Hosting

In case you’ve got a Linux shared hosting, you’ve registered a domain name with us and you’d like to transfer it, you can obtain its EPP transfer code with no more than a few mouse clicks. When you log into your Hepsia Control Panel and go to the Registered Domains section, you will see all the domain names that you have registered through our company displayed alphabetically. Next to each domain, you’ll see a small EPP icon for all TLD extensions that need an EPP code in order to be transferred between companies. Clicking on the icon will send the code to the domain owner’s email address straight away. In the very same section you can also see and eventually change the email, if the one there is not valid any longer.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you register a domain name under a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you will be able to get its EPP transfer code with just one single mouse click, if you decide to move it to some other company. All it takes to do that is to sign into 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 name. Of course, such a button will be there only if the given TLD extension supports transfers with an EPP transfer code. Within 60 seconds, an email message that contains the code will be sent to the domain name registrant’s mailbox associated with that domain name. You can update the latter via the very same section of the Control Panel – in case the one that is presently listed in the WHOIS register is not valid. As the update will take effect without delay, you can request the EPP code right after that.
