Withdrawal-button obligation: protect your shop from warning letters
Since 19 June 2026, consumer-facing online shops in Germany have had to provide an easily accessible withdrawal button (§ 356a BGB); other EU countries apply the same rule under Directive (EU) 2023/2673 once their national law is in force. If it is missing, you risk costly cease-and-desist warnings from competitors and consumer associations. With WiderrufButton, the button is installed in just a few minutes.

What a warning letter costs: In Germany, in the cases documented so far under § 356a BGB, the Wettbewerbszentrale and the Verband Sozialer Wettbewerb claimed around €417 per warning letter. A competitor's warning letter sent through a lawyer is billed according to the amount in dispute and can cost more, and it usually comes with a demand for a cease-and-desist undertaking with a contractual penalty. A missing mandatory button is an easy-to-spot trigger. Prevention starts at €2.99/month — a warning letter costs many times more.
