## What is WCAG and why it matters

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is the international set of guidelines for making websites accessible to all users, including people with visual, hearing, motor or cognitive impairments.

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is the European regulation that strengthens digital accessibility requirements for a range of products and services, in certain cases including e-commerce. It forms the legal and practical baseline that companies increasingly follow when building and maintaining digital products.

The EAA has applied since 28 June 2025 to part of the digital products and services in the EU, including some e-commerce scenarios. This does not mean every website automatically faces inspections or fines, but accessibility requirements are steadily becoming a quality standard — especially for companies operating in the European market.

In practice it means your website must be usable and understandable for the widest possible audience, regardless of how the user interacts with it.

This translates into concrete interface requirements:

- clear keyboard navigation
- readable and visually accessible content
- forms that work correctly with proper error handling
- compatibility with assistive technologies (e.g. screen readers)

For a business this is not only about compliance but also about user experience quality: the more accessible the website, the fewer barriers your customers face.

## Who should pay attention to website accessibility

Checking accessibility is especially important if you work in these areas:

- online stores
- transport and travel companies
- banks and fintech projects
- medical organisations
- state and municipal institutions
- companies participating in tenders

## What we check

We analyse the key elements of your website from the point of view of accessibility and WCAG compliance:

- checkout accessibility
- keyboard navigation
- interface contrast
- forms, error messages and field labels
- basic screen reader compatibility
- page and heading structure
- interface elements that affect perception and interaction

## Free accessibility quick test

Enter your website address — in a few seconds we will check the basic accessibility criteria: alt texts, heading structure, forms, contrast and more. This is an automated quick test, not a full audit.

## What you get after the audit

After the check you get a clear picture of the current state of your website and a list of issues that affect accessibility.

Based on this data we define which changes are needed: which issues must be fixed first, which improvements will have the biggest effect and which steps are required to bring the website in line with WCAG.

We then carry out the agreed work — from targeted fixes of individual elements to reworking the interface and key user flows, including forms, navigation and the checkout process.

The outcome:

- critical accessibility issues fixed
- improved forms, navigation and interface structure
- compliance with the key WCAG requirements (within the chosen scope)
- a website that is easier and more accessible for your users
