COMMISSION NOTICE – Guidance on the interpretation and application of Article 6a of Directive 98/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on consumer protection in the indication of the prices of products offered to consumers · European Union

For the same reason, Article 6a does not apply to ‘cash-back’ announcements whereby third parties, which are not sellers of the goods, such as manufacturers/distributors, promise the consumers who have purchased the good(s) in question, to refund part of the price paid, at the consumers’ individual request and during a certain period. Such ‘cash-back’ practices remain subject to the UCPD and must not be used to circumvent the requirements of the PID for price reduction announcements.
