Shopify Accessibility Audit FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about auditing Shopify stores for WCAG 2.2 accessibility.

Why is this priced differently from a generic website audit?

Shopify stores have a specific, repeatable structure — theme templates, cart/checkout flow, app integrations — so this audit is scoped and priced around exactly that, covering up to 25 templates including your full purchase journey.

Does this work with any Shopify theme?

Yes, including custom themes and Shopify Plus stores — we audit what is actually rendered, not a specific theme’s source code in isolation.

Can you test third-party apps on my store?

We test how your installed apps affect accessibility of the pages they appear on; app-level source code fixes are the app vendor’s responsibility, but we will tell you exactly what is broken and how it impacts your customers.

Do you test the actual checkout, not just the storefront?

Yes — full manual testing runs through your real purchase flow from product page to order confirmation.

What's my accessibility risk as a Shopify store specifically?

E-commerce is one of the most frequently named sectors in ADA web accessibility demand letters and lawsuits in the US; an inaccessible cart or checkout is a common trigger.

How is this different from Shopify's built-in accessibility features?

Shopify’s platform-level checkout has baseline accessibility support, but your theme customizations, product content, images, and installed apps are where most real-world failures occur — this audit covers all of it.

What do I get at the end?

A severity-ranked report with developer-ready fix guidance and code samples, a free re-test once you have implemented fixes, an accessibility statement draft for your store, and 90 days of support.

How long does it take?

10-14 business days from scoping to final report.

Do you offer this for other e-commerce platforms?

Yes — the same scope and process apply to WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, and custom storefronts; this page is built around Shopify specifically since that is where most of our e-commerce clients run.

Can I start with the $100 consultation instead?

Absolutely — if you are not sure this is the right scope yet, book the 1-hour consultation first and we will confirm before you commit to the full audit.
