If you’d like to transfer a domain name from one domain name registrar to another, you will have to go through a few safety steps. One of them is getting a unique EPP code from the current domain name registrar – provided that you are the domain registrant, since the code is emailed to the domain owner’s mailbox and nobody else can obtain it. You have to provide this code to the new domain registrar, or else they will not be able to initiate the transfer procedure. The EPP authentication codes are case-sensitive and may comprise of digits or special symbols such as dots or commas, which can be easily miswritten, so make sure you copy/paste the right code. As an extra safety measure, the transfer code for a domain name may be altered on a regular basis. Some companies call this code a domain secret, an Auth key or a domain password as well.
EPP Transfer Protection in Website Hosting
Getting the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain name registered through our company under a website hosting account is unbelievably easy. You won’t have to log in and out of different Control Panels, since you can administer both your domains and your shared hosting account from one single location – our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To get the transfer code for any domain, you simply need to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the mini EPP symbol, which will be located next to each domain whose extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Our system will email the code to the domain owner’s email instantly. If you wish to update the email, you can do it from the very same section of the Control Panel with only a couple of mouse clicks.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you’d like to transfer any domain that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another domain name registrar, you can get its EPP transfer authorization code with a couple of mouse clicks from the Hepsia Control Panel. All registered domain names will be shown in a separate section. Quick-access buttons will enable you to use different features. To get the EPP transfer code, you just need 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 name owner’s email, which is currently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If needed, you can modify this email address from the very same Control Panel section before requesting the transfer code. The update will propagate momentarily, so you won’t have to wait for the new email to be published on WHOIS lookup websites.
