In case you would like to transfer a domain name from one domain name registrar to another, you’ll need a unique transfer authorization code, which may be referred to by various names – an EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a domain password, etc. All these names designate the exact same thing – a code that the domain name registrant gets from the present domain name registrar and provides to the new one upon ordering. Without a valid code, a domain transfer process cannot be initiated and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For greater security, the code comprises of digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you would like to transfer one of your domains, you need to present the new domain name registrar with the correct code.
EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Website Hosting
You can obtain the EPP transfer authorization code for any domain that you have registered through our company with just a couple of clicks of the mouse from the same Hepsia Control Panel that you will use to manage your cloud website hosting account. As soon as you go to the Registered Domains section, you’ll see all your domains neatly shown in alphabetical order. If a particular extension supports transfers between registrars with an EPP transfer code, you will see an EPP button on the right side of the given domain. If you click that button, the code will be emailed to the email address associated with the Registrant contact for the domain in question. If you want, you can edit the contact details, including the email address, without the need to leave this Control Panel section, in case the currently entered email address is no longer valid.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you’d like to transfer any domain name that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another registrar company, you can get its EPP transfer authorization code with several mouse clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. All registered domains will be displayed in a different section of the Control Panel. Quick-access controls will enable you to use separate 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 whose TLD extension supports transfers with an authorization code. Our system will email the code to the domain name registrant’s email address, which is presently listed in the domain’s WHOIS record. If needed, you can change this email from the same section of the Control Panel before requesting the EPP transfer authorization code. The change will propagate momentarily, so you won’t need to wait for the new email address to be updated on WHOIS websites.
