One Click Return for WooCommerce – EU 2023/2673

One Click Return for WooCommerce is a compliance-first plugin that implements the digital right of withdrawal required by EU Directive 2023/2673 (Art. 11a) directly in your WooCommerce store.

Built and maintained by MITS – a software house from Lublin, Poland, specialising in WooCommerce, web applications and e-commerce solutions.

Unlike generic refund plugins, this plugin was built from the ground up for the directive – every feature maps directly to a legal requirement.

How it works

1. Customer clicks “Return order” – from their account, the footer link, or directly from the order confirmation email.
2. A 2-step form opens: Step 1 identifies the order (email + order number, no login required). Step 2 selects items and confirms.
3. The customer receives an instant confirmation email (required by Art. 11a as a “durable medium”).
4. Store staff receives a notification and manages the withdrawal from WooCommerce admin.
