If you’d like to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you will have to go through a few safety procedures. One of them is obtaining a special EPP code from the present domain registrar – provided that you are the domain registrant, since the code is emailed to the domain owner’s email address and no one else can see it. You’ll need to give this code to the new registrar, or else they won’t be able to initiate the domain transfer procedure. The EPP authentication codes are case-sensitive and may include digits or special symbols such as commas or dots, which can be easily miswritten, so make sure you copy/paste the correct code. As an extra protection measure, the transfer code for a domain name may be altered on a regular basis. Certain domain registrars call this code an Auth key, a domain secret or a domain password as well.
EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Hosting
You can obtain the EPP transfer code for any domain name that you’ve registered with us with only a couple of mouse clicks from the same Hepsia Control Panel that you will use to manage your cloud hosting account. As soon as you visit the Registered Domains section, you will find all your domain names neatly listed in alphabetical order. In case a certain extension supports transfers between registrar companies with an EPP transfer code, you’ll notice an EPP button next to the respective domain. If you click on that button, the code will be sent to the email address associated with the Registrant contact for the domain name in question. If you want, you can edit the contact information, including the email address, without the need to leave this section of the Control Panel, in case the current email is not valid anymore.
EPP Transfer Protection in Semi-dedicated Servers
You can effortlessly obtain the transfer authentication code for any domain name registered under a semi-dedicated server account if you want to transfer it away. This can be done through the very same Control Panel, via which you administer your account, so you will not have to log in and out of different admin panels. All you will need to do is go to the domain management section of the Control Panel and click on the EPP button associated with the domain that you want to transfer, as long as its TLD extension supports transfers with such a code. Our system sends all codes automatically to the registrant’s email address listed in the domain name’s WHOIS record, so if the email that is currently entered is obsolete, you can change it with a few clicks of the mouse without the need to leave the domain management section of the Control Panel.
