Transferring a domain name from one company to another typically involves the use of a special domain name authorization code, which different companies refer to as an EPP authorization code, a domain name password or an Auth code. This code can be used as a security measure against unauthorized transfers with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. It can be obtained only by the owner of the particular domain name and is provided by the present domain name registrar company. It must be given to the new domain name registrar company because the transfer process cannot be initiated without it. The code is case-sensitive and frequently contains numbers and special symbols, so as to hinder unauthenticated individuals from cracking it. Some domain registrars even reset the codes of domain names registered through them after a particular interval of time for even better safety.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer code for any domain name registered through us under a cloud web hosting account is unbelievably easy. You will not have to log in and out of different Control Panel tools, since you can administer both your domains and your web hosting account from the exact same place – our in-house created Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To get the transfer code for any domain name, you simply have to go to the Registered Domains section and to click the small EPP icon, which will be located on the right-hand side of each domain whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will email the code to the registrant’s email address instantaneously. In case you’d like to change the email, you can do it from the very same section of the Control Panel with only several mouse clicks.

EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you register a domain name under a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you’ll be able to obtain its EPP transfer authentication code with only one single click of the mouse, if you decide to move it to some other registrar. All it takes to accomplish that is to log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, to go to the Registered Domains section and to click on the EPP button, which will be next to the domain name. Of course, such a button will be there only if the given gTLD or ccTLD extension supports transfers with an EPP code. Within sixty seconds, an email message that includes the EPP code will be sent to the domain name owner’s email address associated with that domain name. You can change the latter via the same section of the Control Panel – in case the one that is currently listed in the WHOIS archives isn’t valid. Since the update will propagate without any delay, you can request the EPP code immediately after that.
