If you would like to transfer a domain name from one company to another, you’ll need to pass through a couple of safety steps. One of them is obtaining a unique EPP authorization code from the current registrar – provided that you are the registrant, since the code is sent to the domain owner’s email account and no one else can see it. You’ll need to give this code to the new registrar, or else they will not be able to begin the domain name transfer process. The EPP codes are case-sensitive and may comprise of numbers or special symbols such as dots or commas, which can be easily mistyped, so make sure you copy and paste the right code. As an extra safety measure, the transfer authorization code for a domain may be altered regularly. Some domain registrars refer to this code as an Auth key, a domain password or a domain secret as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting

If you’ve got a Linux cloud web hosting packages, you’ve registered a domain name with us and you’d like to transfer it away, you can obtain its EPP authentication code with less than a few clicks. When you log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and navigate to the Registered Domains section, you will see all the domains that you’ve registered with us displayed in alphabetical order. On the right-hand side of each domain, you will see a tiny EPP icon for all top-level domain name extensions that require an EPP code in order to be transferred between registrars. Clicking the icon will email the code to the domain registrant’s email address momentarily. In the exact same section you can also find and eventually update the email, if the one there is not valid anymore.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you decide to transfer any domain that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another registrar company, you can obtain its EPP transfer authorization code with a few clicks from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domain names are listed in a different section of the Control Panel. Quick-access buttons will permit you to use separate features. To obtain the transfer code, you simply have to click on the EPP symbol, which will be on the right-hand side of any domain name whose TLD extension supports transfers with an authorization code. Our system will email the code to the domain registrant’s email, which is presently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If needed, you can edit this email from the exact same Control Panel section before requesting the transfer code. The update will propagate straight away, so you will not need to wait for the new email address to show up on WHOIS lookup web sites.
