In case you want to transfer a domain from one domain name registrar to another, you will need a unique transfer code, which may be referred to by different names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names denote the exact same thing – a code that the domain name owner gets from the current domain registrar and provides to the new one during the order procedure. Without a valid code, a domain transfer cannot be initiated and this is one of the security measures against unwanted transfers used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For greater security, the code contains digits and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so if you’d like to transfer one of your domain names, you have to provide the new domain name registrar with the right code.

EPP Transfer Protection in Shared Hosting

Obtaining the EPP transfer authentication code for any domain registered through us under a shared hosting account is incredibly easy. You won’t have to switch between different tools, since you can manage both your domains and your hosting account from one single place – our in-house created Hepsia hosting Control Panel. To obtain the transfer code for any domain, you simply have to go to the Registered Domains section and to click the tiny EPP symbol, which will be located next to any domain whose extension supports transfers with a code. Our system will email the code to the domain name registrant’s email instantaneously. In case you’d like to update the email, you can do it from the same section of the hosting Control Panel with only several clicks.
