If you wish to transfer a domain from one registrar to another, you’ll have to go through several security procedures. One of them is getting a unique EPP authentication code from the current registrar – provided that you are the registrant, since the code is emailed to the owner's mailbox and nobody else can get it. You will have to give this code to the new registrar company, otherwise they won’t be able to start the domain transfer process. The EPP codes are case-sensitive and may contain numbers or special symbols such as commas or dots, which can be easily misentered, so make sure you copy & paste the right code. As an additional protection measure, the transfer authorization code for a domain may be reset on a regular basis. Some registrars call this code an Auth key, a domain secret or a domain password as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Web Hosting

In case you have a Linux shared web hosting, you’ve registered a domain name through our company and you’d like to transfer it away, you can obtain its EPP transfer code with less than several mouse clicks. When you log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and visit the Registered Domains section, you will see all the domains that you have registered with our company listed in alphabetical order. On the right-hand side of each domain, you’ll see a small EPP icon for all extensions that require a code in order to be transferred between domain name registrars. Clicking the icon will email the EPP code to the domain name registrant’s email immediately. In the same section you can also find and ultimately edit the email, if the one there is no longer valid.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you would like to transfer any domain that is registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another domain registrar, you can get its EPP transfer authorization code with several clicks of the mouse from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domain names are displayed in a different section of the Control Panel. Quick-access controls will permit you to use separate features. To get the transfer code, you just need to click on the EPP logo, which will be on the right-hand side of any domain name whose TLD extension supports transfers with a transfer authorization code. Our system will email the code to the domain name owner’s email, which is currently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If you wish, you can change this email address from the same section of the Control Panel before requesting the EPP transfer authorization code. The change will propagate right away, so you don’t need to wait for the new email to be listed on WHOIS lookup web sites.
