Transferring a domain name from one registrar company to another ordinarily entails the use of a special transfer authorization code, which different registrar companies refer to as an EPP authentication code, a domain name password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a safety measure against unauthorized transfers with all generic and with most country-code extensions. The code can be obtained only by the owner of the given domain and is issued by the current domain name registrar company. It must be given to the new registrar because the transfer process cannot be started without it. The code is case-sensitive and traditionally contains numbers and special symbols, so as to stop unauthenticated persons from guessing it. Some registrars even reset the codes of domains registered through them after a given amount of time for even greater security.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer code for any domain registered through us under a cloud hosting account is remarkably easy. You will not need to log in and out of different interfaces, as you can administer both your domains and your shared web hosting account from one place – our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. To obtain the transfer code for any domain, you just have to visit the Registered Domains section and to click on the tiny EPP sign, which will be located on the right-hand side of any domain whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will email the code to the domain name registrant’s email right away. If you wish to edit the email, you can do it from the exact same section of the hosting Control Panel with just a few clicks of the mouse.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can effortlessly obtain the transfer code for any domain registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you decide to transfer it away. This can be done through the same Control Panel, via which you administer your account, so you will not have to log in and out of different admin interfaces. All you will need to do is go to the domain management section of the Control Panel and click the EPP button associated with the domain that you’d like to transfer, as long as its extension supports transfers with a code. Our system sends all codes automatically to the domain name registrant’s email listed in the domain’s WHOIS record, so if the email that is currently listed is out of date, you can change it with several clicks of the mouse without the need to leave the Control Panel’s domain management section.
