About this plugin
Since 19 June 2026, Dutch and EU B2C webshops must offer a clear, easily accessible digital withdrawal function (in Dutch: “herroepingsknop”): withdrawing from a purchase should be as easy as placing the order. This plugin helps your WooCommerce store offer and record such a function.
The plugin works right after activation, with no configuration required:
- Automatically creates a public page named “Herroeping” containing the withdrawal form (shortcode [herroepingsknop] ). If the page is lost, the plugin restores it.
- Two-step process: first the withdrawal declaration, then an explicit confirmation. No account is required.
- Shows the withdrawal button in the order flow: on the order-received (thank-you) page, on the order detail page and under My Account → Orders.
- Verifies the submitted email address against the order, so no one can submit a withdrawal for someone else’s order.
- Records every request on the order (a dedicated “Herroeping aangevraagd” order status, an order note and order meta) and sends a confirmation to the customer plus an internal notification. Both emails can be managed under WooCommerce → Settings → Emails.
- Privacy- and security-conscious: nonces, a honeypot, a rate limit and generic error messages so order numbers cannot be enumerated.
This plugin records and confirms requests. It does not determine whether a request is timely, valid or legally enforceable, and it does not guarantee compliance with any law. As a store owner you remain responsible for the legal assessment, your return and withdrawal policy, information duties, retention periods and the handling of requests.
This plugin is not legal advice.
The plugin does not send data to external servers and adds no tracking.
