WooCommerce and Shopify are both in EAA scope.
E-commerce is named explicitly in the European Accessibility Act, which has been enforceable since 28 June 2025 — the first French lawsuits landed in November 2025. A store is also the worst place to guess at a fix, which is exactly why every fix here is verified on the live page.

Why it matters
Why a store is the hard case.
Explicitly in EAA scope
E-commerce is named in the European Accessibility Act, enforceable since 28 June 2025. The first French lawsuits landed in November 2025.
Every fix re-measured
A store is the worst place to guess. On one store the first pass made a page worse and the verification caught it.
Product images described
Alt text is written into your product images and never over a description a human already wrote.
Checkout path first
The ranking puts the pages that take money above the pages that do not, because that is where the exposure actually is.
Strongest on WooCommerce
WordPress lets the fix happen on the server, so the corrected markup is what reaches the shopper.
A payment iframe stays out of reach
If you do not control the checkout frame, neither do we. That limit is real and we are not going to imply otherwise.
How it works
Three steps, no vocabulary to learn.
Scan the pages that take money
Product, cart and checkout are graded against 100+ WCAG 2.2 AA rules by axe-core, and ranked by real-world legal exposure rather than alphabetically.
Fix where the platform lets you
On WooCommerce the fixes are written into the page on the server. On Shopify, alt text is written to your product images through the Admin API and the remaining fixes run in the browser.
Verify before you trust the number
A second scan re-measures the live page after every fix. On one store the first pass made a page worse and the verification caught it; if a re-check cannot finish, no improvement figure is printed at all.
Check your checkout path.
Five pages free is enough to see the pages that take money.
Fix it, then prove the fix.
On a storefront the verification matters more than the fix, because an unverified change to a checkout page is a liability, not an improvement.
Measured on the live page, or not shown.
Before and after are both real scans of your live store. If the re-check cannot finish, no improvement figure appears at all.
- Both figures are measurements
- A regression is flagged, not shipped
- No figure when the re-check fails
Descriptions written into the catalogue.
On WooCommerce they go to your media library; on Shopify through the Admin API. Either way they persist in your store data rather than being injected per page view.
- Saved into your store, permanently
- Human descriptions left untouched
- Decorative images given an empty alt
WooCommerce can be fixed at the source. Shopify cannot.
On WooCommerce the corrected markup leaves your server. Shopify does not permit that, so alt text goes through the Admin API and the rest runs in the browser.
- WooCommerce: server-side
- Shopify: Admin API plus browser rules
- Stated before you buy, not after
Frequently asked questions
About online stores. The product-wide questions are on the features page.
Does it slow the store down?
No. Scanning runs on our servers, not yours. On WooCommerce, approved fixes are applied as the page is generated — a few milliseconds of server work and no extra JavaScript for your shoppers. On Shopify it is one small script applying rules you already approved, not a third-party widget.
Will it rewrite my product descriptions?
No. It writes alt text — the description assistive technology reads for an image — into your media library, and it never overwrites a description a human wrote. Your copy is untouched.
Which is stronger, WooCommerce or Shopify?
WooCommerce, because WordPress lets us fix at the source: the corrected markup leaves your server. On Shopify the alt text is written through the Admin API and the rest runs in the browser, because that is what the platform allows.
