If you wish to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you’ll need to pass through several security steps. One of them is getting a special EPP authorization code from the present registrar – on the condition that you are the registrant, since the code is emailed to the owner's mailbox and nobody else can obtain it. You’ll need to provide this code to the new domain registrar, otherwise they won’t be able to start the transfer. The EPP codes are case-sensitive and may comprise of digits or special symbols such as dots or commas, which can be easily misentered, so make sure you copy and paste the right code. As an additional safety measure, the transfer code for a domain may be changed regularly. Some domain registrars call this code an Auth key, a domain secret or a domain password as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Website Hosting

If you’ve got a Linux cloud website hosting, you have registered a domain with our company and you’d like to transfer it away from us, you can obtain its EPP authentication code with no more than a couple of mouse clicks. When you log into your Hepsia Control Panel and go to the Registered Domains section, you’ll see all the domains that you have registered with us displayed in alphabetical order. Next to each domain, you will see a small EPP icon for all generic and country-code top-level domain name extensions that need an EPP code in order to be transferred between registrar companies. Clicking on the icon will send the EPP code to the domain name owner’s email address straight away. In the exact same section you can also see and ultimately modify the email address, if the one there is no longer valid.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you register a domain name under a semi-dedicated server account with us, you’ll be able to get its EPP transfer code with just one single click of the mouse, if you decide to move it to another domain registrar. All it takes to achieve that is to log into your Hepsia Control Panel, to go to the Registered Domains section and to click the EPP button, which will be to the right of the domain name. Of course, this button will be available only if the respective generic or country-code domain name extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Within one minute, an email message that includes the EPP code will be sent to the domain name registrant’s email address associated with that domain. You can change the latter through the exact same Control Panel section – in case the one that is presently listed in the WHOIS register is not a valid one. Since the update will propagate without any delays, you can request the EPP code right after that.
