If you decide to transfer a domain name from one domain registrar to another, you will need to pass through a couple of safety procedures. One of them is obtaining a special EPP code from the current domain name registrar – as long as you are the registrant, since the code is sent to the domain owner’s mailbox and no one else can obtain it. You’ll need to give this code to the new domain name registrar, otherwise they will not be able to initiate the domain name transfer procedure. The EPP authentication codes are case-sensitive and may include digits or special symbols such as dots or commas, which can be easily misentered, so make sure you copy/paste the correct code. As an additional protection measure, the transfer authorization code for a domain name may be reset regularly. Certain companies refer to this code as a domain password, a domain secret or an Auth key as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Web Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer code for any domain registered through us under a shared web hosting account is stunningly easy. You won’t have to switch between different Control Panel tools, as you can manage both your domain names and your shared hosting account from the same location – our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To obtain the transfer code for any domain, you just have to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the tiny EPP logo, which will be situated next to any domain whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will email the code to the domain registrant’s email instantaneously. In case you’d like to modify the email, you can do it from the very same section of the hosting Control Panel with only a few clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can easily get the transfer authorization code for any domain registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you want to transfer it. This can be achieved through the exact same Control Panel, via which you manage your account, so you will not have to sign in and out of different platforms. All you have to do is visit the domain management section of the Control Panel and click the EPP button associated with the domain name that you would like to transfer, on the condition that its TLD extension supports transfers with such a code. Our system sends all codes automatically to the registrant’s email listed in the domain’s WHOIS record, so in case the email that is currently listed is obsolete, you can change it with several clicks of the mouse without the need to leave the Control Panel’s domain management section.
