Accessible e-commerce: more revenue, more customers
In e-commerce, user-friendliness determines purchase or dropout. From 2025, the EAA will require shops to offer accessible services. Those who act now gain a competitive edge and strengthen customer trust.
Accessibility in e-commerce
The European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies to all online shops and marketplaces. Starting June 2025, shop pages, checkouts, product views, and customer accounts must be accessible. With SiteCockpit, you implement these requirements easily, efficiently, and legally – securing competitive advantages.

What does digital accessibility mean?
Accessibility means: your online shop works for everyone.
In e-commerce, this directly affects sales and customer satisfaction.
The requirements are based on the EU standard WCAG 2.2 (Level AA) – and are grouped into four core principles:
1. Perceivability
Product images, texts, prices – everything must be perceivable by everyone, e.g., clear contrasts, alt texts, scalable fonts
2. Operability
Ordering processes must work without a mouse, e.g., keyboard navigation, focus markers, large click areas
3. Understandability
Clear navigation and plain language – e.g., predictable click paths, simple wording, helpful error messages
4. Robustness
Shop must work on all devices and assistive technologies, e.g., screen reader compatibility, clean HTML, ARIA roles

Accessibility: a competitive advantage for e-commerce
Online shops are under pressure: legal warnings, rising customer expectations, and regulatory requirements are increasing. Many shops lose customers because checkout, navigation, or product details are not accessible.
