Can you test the withdrawal button for free?

Wanting to try before you pay is healthy, and it is provided for: BackToMe's legal mode is free for 7 days. There is nothing complicated to understand. There is no cut-price "demo mode" on one side and a "real" mode on the other: as soon as you start, your button has full legal value. Here is how it works, and why it is better this way.

Free account and sites, button on a 7-day trial

You create your account and add your sites free of charge, with no card. You configure everything: domain, colours, language, button wording.

To install and activate the button on your site, you start the 7-day free trial. This requires registering a card, but nothing is charged today: 0 € today, first charge only on the 7th day, unless you cancel before, in one click. You remain covered by the 30-day money-back guarantee.

During the trial: the full legal mode, not a preview

These 7 days are not a hobbled demonstration. Every withdrawal received during the trial has full legal value:

• timestamped archiving of each request, with a fingerprint of the content, to prove later that a withdrawal was indeed received on a given date and has not been altered;
• an automatic acknowledgement of receipt to the customer, on a durable medium;
• retention of the proof for the legal retention period.

In other words, if you receive a genuine request on the very first day, you are already covered. It is this layer that protects you on the day of a dispute or an inspection. The button is the visible part; the enforceable proof is what really counts. We explain why in detail in our feature on the probative value of proof of withdrawal.

And after the 7 days?

On the 7th day, the subscription starts automatically (25 € ex. VAT/month per site, or 250 € ex. VAT/year) and your button stays active without interruption. If you decide it is not for you, you cancel in one click before the end of the trial: no charge, and the button is simply removed from your site.

So there is no "permanent free mode". Without an active subscription, the button is not online and your site is no longer compliant. This is consistent with the obligation: the EU withdrawal-button rule (Directive (EU) 2023/2673) has been in force since 19 June 2026, and every sale concluded without a compliant mechanism exposes you to the extension of the withdrawal period to 12 months and 14 days.

What to take away

Trying BackToMe means trying the full legal mode, free of charge, for 7 days, at full legal value from the very first day. You register a card to start (0 € today, cancellable in one click, 30-day money-back guarantee), and you are never in an in-between "pretend" state that would wrongly believe you were covered.

To check in two minutes whether the obligation concerns you, take the diagnostic. And if you are not yet compliant, here is how to put things right quickly.
