Transfer a domain from Namecheap to Infomaniak

This guide explains how to obtain the EPP code of your domain name from Namecheap in order to transfer it to Infomaniak.

 

Preamble

  • The terms "EPP", "AuthCode", "AuthInfo", "transfer code" and "authorization code" all refer to alphanumeric sequences specific to the domain whose main purpose is to verify the owner's authorization before a transfer between Registrars.
  • Refer to the main guide regarding the rest of the transfer procedure.
  • If necessary, local partners referenced by Infomaniak can handle these procedures: launch a free call for tenders; they will take care of everything, freeing you from the technical details.

⚠️ This is about transferring a domain name that you own with a different provider than Infomaniak, so that the future management of this domain is done with Infomaniak; it is therefore not an internal transfer from one holder to another and the code to be obtained is therefore not a code for an internal transfer with your current provider.

 

Transfer the domain name to Infomaniak

To obtain the authorization code from the current provider:

  1. Click here to log in to the management interface of your products with your current Registrar.
  2. Click on Domain List in the left sidebar.
  3. Click the Manage button to the right of the domain name in question.
  4. Click the Authcode button to receive the authorization code by email.
  5. Once you have obtained the authorization code, refer to the main Infomaniak guide regarding the rest of the domain name transfer procedure.
