Transferring a domain name from one company to another generally entails the use of a special domain name authorization code, which different companies refer to as an EPP key, a domain password or an AuthInfo code. This code can be used as a safety mechanism against unapproved transfer attempts with all generic and with most country-code extensions. The code can be obtained only by the owner of the given domain and is provided by the present registrar. It must be given to the new registrar because the transfer procedure cannot be started without it. The code is case-sensitive and typically contains digits and special symbols, so as to stop unauthenticated people from guessing it. Some domain registrars even change the codes of domains registered through them after a particular period of time for even greater safety.
EPP Transfer Protection in Website Hosting
Getting the EPP transfer code for any domain registered through our company under a website hosting account is exceptionally easy. You will not need to sign in and out of different admin panels, as you can manage both your domain names and your shared web hosting account from the exact same place – our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel. To obtain the transfer code for any domain, you just need to visit the Registered Domains section and to click the mini EPP symbol, which will be located next to any domain name whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will send the code to the domain owner’s email address instantly. In case you would like to modify the email, you can do it from the same section of the Control Panel with only several clicks of the mouse.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you decide to transfer any domain name that’s registered under a semi-dedicated server account to another registrar, you can get its EPP transfer authorization code with a few clicks from the Hepsia Control Panel. All registered domains are shown in a different section. Quick-access buttons will enable you to use separate functions. To get the transfer code, you only need to click on the EPP symbol, which will be on the right-hand side of any domain whose TLD extension supports transfers with a transfer authorization code. Our system will email the code to the registrant’s email, which is currently listed in the domain name’s WHOIS record. If needed, you can modify this email from the very same Control Panel section before requesting the EPP transfer authorization code. The change will propagate instantly, so you don’t need to wait for the new email to appear on WHOIS lookup web sites.
