By default, Payrexx provides accessible payment pages (Terminal and Pages) that enable a simple and inclusive user experience for everyone – including individuals with visual or mobility impairments.
Payrexx payment pages follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, conformance level AA, as well as the European standard for digital accessibility, EN 301 549.
The following features are standard on our payment pages:
Full keyboard accessibility for all interactive elements (e.g. input fields, buttons)
Compatibility with screen readers and assistive technologies
Clear and unambiguous labeling of all form fields
No flashing or distracting content
These measures enhance the user experience for individuals with disabilities and contribute to an overall user-friendly design.
Most color and contrast settings on the payment pages can be customized by merchants in the section of their Payrexx account. This includes:
Background and text colors
Button colors and highlights

While Payrexx provides the technical framework for accessible payment pages, responsibility for individual color customizations and their readability lies with you as the merchant.
A high level of accessibility not only improves usability but also has a positive impact on your conversion rate – and demonstrates professionalism and a commitment to inclusion.
