Transferring a domain name from one registrar company to another usually involves the use of a special transfer code, which different registrar companies call an EPP authorization code, a domain name password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a safety measure against unsanctioned transfer attempts with all generic and with most country-code extensions. It can be obtained only by the owner of the given domain and is issued by the present domain name registrar company. It must be given to the new domain name registrar company because the transfer cannot be initiated without it. The code is case-sensitive and usually contains digits and special symbols, so as to obstruct unauthenticated people from breaking it. Some companies even change the codes of domains registered through them after a certain amount of time for better security.
EPP Transfer Protection in Hosting
Getting the EPP transfer code for any domain name registered through us under a hosting account is really easy. You won’t need to switch between different admin interfaces, as you can manage both your domain names and your hosting account from the same place – our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel. To get the EPP transfer code for any domain, you just have to go to the Registered Domains section and to click on the small EPP sign, which will be situated on the right-hand side of each domain whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will send the code to the registrant’s email address instantaneously. If you want to modify the email, you can do it from the exact same section of the hosting Control Panel with just a few mouse clicks.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you want to transfer any domain name that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account away from us, you can obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with a couple of clicks from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domain names are listed in a separate section of the Control Panel. Quick-access buttons will allow you to use separate features. To obtain the EPP transfer code, you simply have to click the EPP icon, which will be on the right-hand side of any domain whose TLD extension supports transfers with an authorization code. Our system will send the code to the registrant’s email, which is currently listed in the domain name’s WHOIS record. If you wish, you can modify this email address from the very same section of the Control Panel before requesting the transfer code. The change will take effect straight away, so you won’t need to wait for the new email address to appear on WHOIS lookup sites.
