If you decide to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you will have to pass through several safety steps. One of them is obtaining a special EPP code from the present registrar company – as long as you are the registrant, since the code is sent to the owner's email address and no one else can obtain it. You’ll need to give this code to the new domain name registrar, otherwise they won’t be able to start the domain transfer procedure. The EPP authorization codes are case-sensitive and may contain digits or special symbols such as commas or dots, which can be easily miswritten, so make sure you copy and paste the right code. As an extra protection measure, the transfer code for a domain may be altered regularly. Certain domain name registrars refer to this code as a domain secret, an Auth key or a domain password as well.

EPP Transfer Protection in Web Hosting

You can obtain the EPP transfer code for any domain name that you have registered with our company with just several mouse clicks from the exact same Hepsia Control Panel that you will use to administer your web hosting account. Once you visit the Registered Domains section, you will find all your domain names neatly shown in alphabetical order. In case some TLD extension supports transfers between domain registrars with an EPP transfer code, you will see an EPP button next to the given domain. If you click on that button, the code will be emailed to the email address associated with the Registrant contact for the domain name in question. If needed, you can edit the contact details, including the email, without needing to leave this Control Panel section, if the current email is not valid anymore.
