In case you wish to transfer a domain name from one domain name registrar to another, you will need a unique code, which may be referred to by various names – an EPP authorization code, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, etc. All these names refer to one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner obtains from the current domain name registrar and provides to the new one during the order procedure. Without a genuine code, a transfer cannot be started and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unwanted transfers used with all generic and with most country-code extensions. For even better security, the code comprises of digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so in case you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you have to supply the new domain registrar with the correct code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Hosting

In case you have a domain name registered through us and you’ve got a cloud hosting account with us, obtaining its EPP authorization code is really easy. You won’t have to log in and out of different tools, as you can administer all your domain names via the same Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is used to administer your web hosting account. You will see all registered domain names once you log in and next to the domain names whose extensions require an EPP authorization code in order to be transferred away, you’ll see a tiny EPP icon. All it takes to obtain that code is to click the icon. The code is always sent to the domain owner’s email address, so in case the one that you specified initially is no longer valid, you can modify it with a couple of clicks from the exact same section.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can easily obtain the transfer authorization code for any domain registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you’d like to transfer it away. This can be done through the same Control Panel, via which you administer your account, so you won’t have to go through different Control Panels. All you have to do is go to the Control Panel’s domain management section and click on the EPP button for the domain that you would like to transfer, on the condition that its extension supports transfers with a code. Our system emails all codes automatically to the domain name owner’s email address listed in the domain’s WHOIS record, so in case the email address that is currently entered is out of date, you can change it with several clicks of the mouse without even leaving the domain management section of the Control Panel.
