Transferring a domain from one registrar company to another usually entails the use of a special domain name authorization code, which different registrar companies call an EPP authentication code, a domain password or an Auth-Info code. This code can be used as a safety mechanism against unsanctioned transfer attempts with all generic and with most country-code extensions. It can be obtained only by the owner of the specific domain name and is issued by the present domain name registrar company. It must be given to the new domain name registrar company because the transfer procedure cannot be initiated without it. The code is case-sensitive and traditionally includes numbers and special characters, so as to impede unauthenticated individuals from breaking it. Some registrars even change the codes of domain names registered through them after a particular amount of time for even greater safety.

EPP Transfer Protection in Cloud Web Hosting

You can get the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain name that you’ve registered through us with just several clicks of the mouse from the same Hepsia Control Panel that you’ll use to manage your cloud web hosting account. Once you go to the Registered Domains section, you will see all your domains neatly displayed in alphabetical order. In case a particular TLD extension supports transfers between registrar companies with an EPP code, you’ll notice an EPP button next to the respective domain. If you click that button, the code will be sent to the email associated with the Registrant contact for the domain in question. If needed, you can modify the contact information, including the email address, without even leaving this section of the Control Panel, if the current email is no longer valid.
