Accessibility scanning for Shopify and ecommerce stores
Themes and apps get swapped in and out constantly on a growing store, and each one is a new chance to introduce an accessibility regression nobody notices until a customer can't check out.
Common issues we find on Shopify and ecommerce stores
Product images with missing or unhelpful alt text
Bulk-imported product catalogs frequently ship with alt text like "IMG_4471.jpg" or nothing at all, which is a direct SEO loss as well as an accessibility one.
Checkout and cart icons with no accessible labels
Cart, wishlist, and search icons in a theme's header are often just an SVG with no label — fine for sighted shoppers, a dead end for screen reader users trying to find the cart.
Low-contrast "sale" badges and filter sidebars
Theme customizers make it easy to pick colors that look great but fail contrast requirements, especially on sale badges and sidebar filter text.
Why this matters for you specifically
Ecommerce is one of the most frequently targeted sectors in website accessibility litigation, and unlike a lot of other fixes, most of what shows up here is genuinely quick to fix once you know exactly where it is.
