The DMCCA: taking a closer look at the impact on subscription contracts

The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 (DMCCA) has recently received royal assent, following the announcement of the July General Election. We examine the key developments in our previous article. One very significant area of focus in the DMCCA (following the UK Government's 2021 consumer protection consultation and the earlier Penrose report) is subscription contracts. Subscription contracts are big business, with estimated consumer spending in the UK on subscriptions said to be between £28 billion and £34 billion a year across multiple sectors, with 8 in 10 UK consumers having at least one subscription. The reforms in the DMCCA were prompted by concerns that consumers may be spending as much as £1.8 billion per year on subscriptions they do not think are good value for money and can find difficult to exit when they no longer require the relevant goods/services.  The new rules are expected to come into force towards the end of 2024, once regulations are passed.
