Accessibility for complex e-commerce projects with Magento
Magento is one of the most powerful e-commerce platforms worldwide – but especially complex shops need targeted accessibility solutions. With SiteCockpit, you make your Magento shop compliant, user-friendly, and future-proof.
Accessibility – obligation and opportunity at once
Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) requires many online shop operators to implement accessible content.
This also applies to many Magento shops – especially if you
-
have more than 10 employees
-
generate over €2 million in annual revenue
-
offer digital services such as forms, bookings, or customer areas
Failure to act risks fines up to €100,000, competitor warnings, and reputational damage

BFSG requirement from June 28, 2025, based on the EAA
Especially with complex shop landscapes and customizations, accessibility is a challenge – but also a clear competitive advantage.
From June 28, 2025, the BFSG will require all Magento merchants to make their digital offerings accessible. This affects navigation, image descriptions, forms, and many other areas.
With SiteCockpit, you secure a scalable, future-proof solution that removes barriers, meets legal requirements, and noticeably improves the user experience.
Magento masters commerce. SiteCockpit masters access.
A shop without accessibility? Is like checkout without a cart.
Implement digital accessibility according to WCAG with ease
The WCAG 2.2 standards require your Magento shop to be perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust.
This applies to all elements: navigation, colors, contrasts, fonts, images, and forms – everything must be designed so all visitors can use your shop without difficulty.
With SiteCockpit you can achieve:
-
readable texts & scalable fonts
-
alternative image descriptions for products
-
accessible navigation and clear structures
-
optimized forms for screen readers & keyboards
-
a better user experience for everyone
