Make Your Website Inclusive With the GetWCAG Accessibility Widget

In today’s digital world, accessibility is no longer optional — it’s essential.
Whether you’re running an online store, a business website, or a content platform, ensuring that everyone can access and use your site comfortably is part of being a responsible and modern website owner.

That’s where the GetWCAG Accessibility Widget comes in.

This powerful yet lightweight accessibility widget helps you improve your website’s usability for visitors with disabilities — and anyone who prefers a more customized browsing experience.

With just a few clicks, your visitors can adjust your site’s presentation to better suit their needs — for example, increasing text size, switching to high contrast mode, or pausing animations.

While this improves usability for many visitors, it does not make your site fully conform to accessibility standards like WCAG 2.2 or the European Accessibility Act. To meet those standards, you’ll still need to identify and fix the underlying accessibility barriers in your website’s design, code, and content.

Why Add an Accessibility Widget to Your Website?

Over 15% of the world’s population lives with some form of disability.
From visual impairments to cognitive challenges, many people face difficulties when navigating websites that don’t cater to their needs.

Without accessibility tools, you risk alienating a significant part of your audience — and in many regions, non-compliance can even result in legal issues.

Installing an accessibility widget for websites is one of the simplest and fastest ways to bridge that gap.
It empowers your users to adjust the interface to their preferences and demonstrates your commitment to inclusivity.

What is the GetWCAG Accessibility Widget?

The GetWCAG Widget is a customizable tool you can add to your website to provide visitors with a range of accessibility options.
It installs quickly and sits unobtrusively on your site, ready to assist users who need it.

Whether someone needs larger text, more contrast, or wants to pause animations, our accessibility widget makes it possible — without requiring you to redesign your entire site.

  What the Widget Does Not Do — A Crucial Note

It’s important to understand:
The GetWCAG Accessibility Widget is a helpful addition, but it does not make your website fully compliant with accessibility laws like WCAG or the EAA on its own.

Why?
Because the widget only adjusts the browser’s presentation of your site.
It cannot fix underlying issues in your site’s code, structure, or content — like missing alt text, inaccessible forms, poor keyboard navigation, or color contrast errors baked into your design.

The widget is a valuable aid for your visitors, but it’s not a substitute for properly addressing the real accessibility issues.

That’s why we recommend using a full website accessibility scanner to identify and fix all compliance problems at the source.
The GetWCAG platform also offers an automated scan of your entire site so you can uncover, prioritize, and resolve accessibility barriers properly.
