In case you would like to transfer a domain from one domain name registrar to another, you’ll need a unique authorization code, which may be referred to by different names – an EPP key, an Auth code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names designate the same thing – a code that the domain registrant receives from the present registrar and gives to the new one during the order process. Without a valid code, a transfer cannot be initiated and this is one of the protection measures against unauthorized transfers used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even better safety, the code comprises of digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so in case you want to transfer one of your domain names, you need to present the new domain registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Web Hosting

In case you’ve got a web hosting services, you’ve registered a domain through us and you want to transfer it away from us, you can obtain its EPP transfer code with less than a few clicks of the mouse. When you sign in to your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and navigate to the Registered Domains section, you’ll see all the domain names that you’ve registered with our company listed alphabetically. On the right-hand side of each domain name, you’ll see a mini EPP icon for all domain name extensions that require a code in order to be transferred between registrar companies. Clicking the icon will send the EPP code to the domain name registrant’s email right away. In the same section you can also find and ultimately edit the email address, if the one there isn’t valid anymore.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you register a domain name under a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you’ll be able to get its EPP transfer code with only one click of the mouse, in case you decide to move it to some other registrar. All it takes to achieve that is to log into your Hepsia Control Panel, to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the EPP button, which will be next to the domain. Of course, this button will be available only if the respective generic or country-code TLD extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Within sixty seconds, an email message that includes the code will be sent to the domain name registrant’s mailbox associated with that domain name. You can edit the latter via the exact same section of the Control Panel – in case the one that’s presently listed in the WHOIS archives is not valid. As the change will propagate without delay, you can request the EPP code directly after that.
