BFSG · Mandatory since 2025-06-28

Why accessibility matters now.

The Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG) has required almost all online shops and digital service providers in Germany to have accessible websites since June 2025. Standard: WCAG 2.2 Level AA — exactly what we check.

Violations can lead to warnings, fines up to €100,000 and, in the worst case, a sales ban.

Who is affected?
  • Online shops & marketplaces
  • Booking & ordering systems
  • Banking & financial services
  • Travel & mobility platforms
  • E-books & digital content
  • Apps with ordering features
Look up the exact scope at the BMAS or just check your own site first — the check above is free.
FAQ

Frequently
asked.

Is the accessibility check really free?

Yes, completely. You don't need an account or a credit card and you can check as many pages as you like. We offer the check for free because we want to get to know developers and website owners — some of them will use our paid search product later.

Which standards are checked?

WCAG 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 at Level A and AA, plus best-practice rules (e.g. heading order, semantic landmarks). That covers the BFSG, EN 301 549, and most international requirements.

Which engine powers the check?

We use axe-core by Deque — the most widely used open-source accessibility engine in the world. The same technology powers many paid audit tools.

Can I also check single-page apps (SPAs)?

Yes. The scanner loads your page in a real Chromium browser and waits for full rendering before checking. JavaScript-heavy apps are analyzed correctly too.

Are my URLs or results stored?

No. The check runs server-side, the result is sent only to your browser, and nothing is stored permanently.

Does the scan replace a professional audit?

Automated tests find about 30–50% of all accessibility issues. They are an excellent starting point — for full BFSG conformance, manual testing (screen reader, keyboard, cognitive aspects) is also needed.

Accessibility is just
the beginning.

An accessible website is great — but if your users can't find what they're looking for, they bounce anyway. SearchFast brings lightning-fast AI search to your site. Integrated in 5 minutes.
