Clearly labelled “Withdraw from contract” button
A visible button or link the customer can find at any time during the 14-day withdrawal window — not buried in a help article or behind a contact form.

EU Withdrawal is a free Magento 2 extension that adds the EU 14-day right-of-withdrawal button your store needs by 19 June 2026. It delivers a clearly labelled withdrawal button, a deliberate two-step confirmation, an automatic email receipt, partial per-item withdrawals, an admin request queue with CSV export, and 22 EU languages - with native Hyvä and Breeze support. Install via Composer and be compliant in about 15 minutes. The optional Pro edition adds a tamper-proof audit log, customer-verifiable receipts, and a single signed evidence file for regulators.

A quick glance at frontend and backend functions.
19 June 2026 — every online seller with EU customers must show a clear “Withdraw from contract” button. Without it, customers can withdraw for up to 12 months and 14 days instead of 14 days, and enforcement is delegated to each EU member state's consumer-protection authority.
EU law update
What the new EU law expects from your store
Three concrete things. All three have to be in place by 19 June 2026.
Deliberate two-step confirmation
The withdrawal button opens a short guided confirmation form: the customer looks up the order (guests use order number + email), selects the items to withdraw, and confirms. Partial, per-item withdrawals are supported — not just the whole order.
Automatic email receipt
A timestamped email with the withdrawal details and a reference number. A "we'll get back to you" message is not enough — that email itself is the legal record.
Who needs to comply?
If any of these is your store, this law applies — no matter where the business is registered.
You sell to EU consumers
Even if your business is registered outside the EU — the law follows the consumer, not the trader.
You ship goods to the EU
Any physical product delivered to an address in an EU member state — even just occasionally.
You price in euros
Storefront prices listed in euros — alongside or instead of your home currency.
A drop-in solution
One free module. All three implementation pieces, out of the box.
The module adds a “Withdraw from contract” button to every customer-facing place that matters — the order page, the customer account, the footer and order-confirmation emails. Customers complete a short two-click form, as guests or logged in, choosing the whole order or just specific items. A timestamped email confirmation goes out automatically, and every request lands in a dedicated queue inside your Magento admin. Five-minute setup.
How your customer withdraws from an order
Five steps. Two clicks. One email.

The button sits on the customer's order page, account area, store footer and order emails — available right through the 14-day window. It opens the EU right to withdraw from the contract — the 14-day right EU shoppers expect.

How your team handles withdrawals
A dedicated queue inside your Magento admin. No new tool to learn.
Everything included in Free
Every technical piece the withdrawal-button requirement needs is in Free. Pro adds proof and forensics on top, not the basics.
Built to the directive
Button label, two-step flow, email receipt, partial withdrawal — configured to what Art. 11a describes.
Works for guests and customers
Logged-in shoppers go straight to their orders. Guests look up the order with their order number and email.
Two-step confirmation
Required by the new EU law. We handle the routing and the second-click confirmation page.
Automatic email confirmation
Timestamped email with the withdrawal details, items and reference number. Becomes the permanent record.
Withdraw from individual items
Customers can withdraw from specific items and quantities, not just the whole order.
Visible in all the right places
Order page, customer account, footer and order confirmation emails — automatically, no template editing needed.
22 EU languages
Every EU locale Magento ships with, with verbatim legal text taken straight from EU sources. Override per store view if needed.
Admin queue with CSV export
Filter by status, date, customer, order. Export to CSV for accounting. Standard Magento admin look and feel.
Editable email templates
Sender, subject, layout — edit per store view from the admin. Multistore-aware.
Works with Hyvä and Breeze
Free Hyvä companion modules ship alongside. Breeze (Swissup) is supported out of the box. Luma just works.
Digital-content waiver flow
Selling downloads, software or services? The required "I want to start using this now" consent is collected and recorded at checkout, automatically.
No tracking, no phone-home
Zero data sent to our servers. Customer data stays in your Magento database.
Pro upgrade · optional
When you need proof, not just the implementation
Free implements what Art. 11a of Directive 2011/83/EU describes. Pro is for the moment a regulator, a dispute lawyer, or a chargeback adjuster asks for proof — and you want to hand them something solid in one click.
Pro feature · 1 of 5
A complete activity log no one can tamper with
Every withdrawal request gets a full timeline — who pressed which button, when, and from where. The log is locked: not even your own admin can edit or delete past entries. When a regulator or a lawyer asks "how do you know what happened", you can show them.
- Every important action is recorded automatically
- Database-level lock plus cryptographic chain — two safety layers
- One-command check to prove the log was never altered
- Automatic anonymisation of personal details after a period you choose
Pro feature · 2 of 5
Email receipts your customers can verify themselves
Every withdrawal confirmation email gets a personal verification link. Your customer — or anyone they show it to: a bank, a dispute lawyer, a regulator — clicks the link and instantly sees the receipt wasn't edited after you sent it.
- Each receipt gets a unique fingerprint
- Public verification page styled in your store's design
- Works for any past receipt — no expiration
- Protected against scraping and abuse
Pro feature · 3 of 5
Proof you showed the withdrawal terms before checkout
EU law has two proof requirements. Free's confirmation email proves what you sent after a withdrawal. Pro proves what your customer saw before they paid — the other half of the proof a regulator looks for. Every checkout view of the terms is timestamped, the exact text is saved, and the proof is one tab away on the request page.
- Every checkout view of the withdrawal terms is timestamped and logged
- The exact text shown is saved as a versioned snapshot — even after you update the policy
- "Pre-Contract Proof" tab on every withdrawal request, ready to show on demand
- Without recorded disclosure, the directive extends the window from 14 days to 12 months and 14 days — Pro records each display so you can show it was made
Pro feature · 4 of 5
One-click withdrawal links in customer emails
Without Pro, a customer has to find your store, look up the order number, type their email and submit. With Pro, they tap “Withdraw from contract” in their order email and they're already signed in. Less friction means stronger compliance and fewer “how do I withdraw?” support tickets.
- One-click withdrawal links in order and shipment emails
- Secure 30-day tokens, single-use once the withdrawal is submitted
- Customer never has to remember an order number
- Every link issue and use is recorded — you can prove who clicked when
Pro feature · 5 of 5
Hand a regulator one signed file. Done.
When a customer files a claim, a bank requests evidence, or a regulator opens a case, you need to provide "all the evidence" for one withdrawal. Pro packs everything — order details, withdrawal log, customer's receipt, the terms they were shown — into one signed file. The other side can verify it offline, no access to your store needed.
- One ZIP file per request, ready to download
- Cryptographically signed — proves it wasn't edited after export
- Includes a verifier the regulator can run on any laptop
- No expert testimony required to prove the file is genuine
Free vs Pro at a glance
Free delivers every technical piece the requirement covers. Pro adds proof, forensic-grade records, and one less click for the customer.

Frequently asked questions
About compliance
Do I really need a withdrawal button if I already have a returns process?
Yes. The new EU law expects a clearly labelled withdrawal button that's visible at all times during the 14-day window. A general returns form does not count — the law is specific about the wording, the placement and the two-step confirmation.
What happens if I do not comply by 19 June 2026?
Two things. First, your customer's withdrawal window automatically extends from 14 days to 12 months and 14 days — a full year of extra exposure. Second, enforcement is delegated to each EU member state's consumer-protection authority — penalties and procedures vary by country, but the exposure exists in every member state.
Does this apply to my non-EU store if I have EU customers?
Yes. The law applies to every store selling to consumers in the EU, regardless of where the business is registered. If you ship to the EU or price your products in euros, you are in scope.
Does this replace my full RMA or returns process?
No. The module adds only the legal withdrawal step. Your existing RMA, refund and shipping-return workflow stays as it is — your team uses it after the withdrawal request lands in the admin queue. The two systems sit next to each other.
About the extension
Is this really 100% free? What is the catch?
No catch. The Free edition is proprietary freeware under the MageMe EULA: free of charge, no trial limit, no tracking. Pro is a separate, optional upgrade for stores that want a tamper-proof activity log, verifiable receipts and signed evidence packs on top.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free delivers every technical piece the requirement covers: the withdrawal button, two-step confirmation, automatic email confirmation, partial withdrawals, 22 EU languages, admin queue. Pro adds proof: a tamper-proof activity log, customer-verifiable receipts, proof of pre-purchase disclosure, one-click withdrawal links in customer emails, and a single signed evidence file you can hand to a regulator. Free is the implementation. Pro is for stores that want forensic-grade records on top.
Is the extension compatible with Hyvä theme?
Yes. Free Hyvä companion modules ship alongside the main extension (one for the storefront, one for the checkout). Breeze (Swissup) is supported out of the box. Luma works without anything extra. CSP headers, Tailwind classes and the Hyvä asset pipeline are all respected.
Does it work for guest checkouts?
Yes. Guests submit a withdrawal by entering their order number plus email. Logged-in customers see their orders directly in their account. Both flows go through the same two-step confirmation and generate the same email confirmation.
What customer data does the module store?
Order number, customer email, the items being withdrawn, an optional reason, and timestamps — stored in your own Magento database, never sent to any MageMe server. No tracking, no phone-home. Pro adds an automatic anonymisation schedule so personal details are erased after the retention period you choose (default 365 days).
Support and maintenance
Who maintains this extension?
MageMe (ACTEK d.o.o.), a Slovenia-based Magento extension vendor active since 2011. The Free module shares the same code, CI pipeline and release process as our paid products.
How do I get support for the free version?
Best-effort community support via support@mageme.com. Bug reports are triaged by the same engineers who work on the paid editions. Priority queue with a 24-hour SLA is part of the Pro tier.
How do I upgrade from Free to Pro?
Pro is installed as a small set of add-on modules that sit next to your existing Free install. Your data, settings and request history are preserved — no reinstall, no migration. You get a Composer command and a short upgrade guide right after purchase.
Will it stay free?
Yes. The Free edition is our long-term contribution to the Magento ecosystem. The implementation baseline stays in Free — anything that implements what Art. 11a describes lands in Free, not Pro.
