Make your WordPress website more accessible with a single click: an on-screen menu that adapts to every visitor — plus tools that support your WCAG and EAA compliance efforts. Installed in under five minutes, no code required.
An accessibility plugin — often called an „accessibility widget” — adds an on-screen menu to your WordPress site that lets visitors adapt how the page is displayed: enlarge text, increase contrast, start a read-aloud function, stop animations and more. This helps people with visual, reading, motor or cognitive impairments use your content more easily.
One thing up front, because many providers frame it differently: a widget like this does not make a website automatically compliant. It improves usability and supports your compliance efforts — actual WCAG conformance only happens once the underlying issues are fixed in the code.
That’s exactly where Welcoma comes in: it pairs an immediately useful visitor widget with a WCAG scanner (coming soon) that surfaces real problems and points to the affected code — instead of hiding them behind an overlay layer.
The European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies across the EU from 28 June 2025. It requires many businesses with digital products and services — among them a large share of online shops and WordPress-based websites — to make them accessible. Each member state implements it through national law (in Germany, for example, the Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz, BFSG). Comparable obligations exist in many countries beyond the EU as well.
The shared technical benchmark is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1 / 2.2), anchored in Europe through the EN 301 549 standard. Whether and how strongly your project is affected depends on its size and business model — when in doubt, get a legal assessment. This text is not legal advice.
A plugin doesn’t take this task off your hands, but it’s a sensible building block: it lowers barriers for your visitors right away and helps you make your efforts visible and document them.
An on-screen menu for your visitors, a cockpit for you — both set up in under five minutes, no code.
If you’d rather not set each control individually, pick a ready-made profile — and all matching adjustments are applied at once.
No developer needed. From upload to a visible menu usually takes under five minutes.
Upload Welcoma in your WordPress backend under „Plugins › Add New" and activate it.
Create an account at welcoma.app, copy your API key and paste it into the plugin.
Choose tools, position and language in the dashboard — the menu appears on your site right away.
An overlay alone makes no WordPress site compliant. Welcoma does both: it helps your visitors right away — and shows you what actually needs fixing in the code.
Welcoma integrates into the page via JavaScript and applies adjustments through CSS classes. That’s why it works with any standard theme, with WooCommerce, and with common page builders like Gutenberg or Elementor — without touching your code.
The plugin is deliberately lightweight (pure JavaScript, no heavy framework) and loads in the background without blocking page rendering. Your visitors’ settings are stored locally in the browser only — it sets no cookies and embeds no third-party trackers.
Using a different shop system or CMS? Versions for Shopware, Shopify and Magento are planned.
Welcoma comes with a permanently free version – and a Pro version with more features. You will find all plans and prices on a single page.
That depends on your goals — and no tool can credibly be called „the best” across the board. Welcoma combines an immediately useful visitor widget with a WCAG scanner (coming soon) and an honest approach: it doesn’t promise „compliance at the click of a button,” it helps you find and fix real issues.
No. No plugin makes a website automatically compliant. Welcoma improves usability for your visitors and supports your compliance efforts — actual conformance only happens once the underlying issues are fixed. (Not legal advice.)
Yes. Welcoma works with any standard theme, with common page builders like Gutenberg or Elementor, and with WooCommerce — without touching your code.
No. It’s deliberately lightweight (pure JavaScript, no heavy framework) and loads in the background without blocking page rendering.
Your visitors’ settings are stored only locally in the browser (localStorage) — not on a server. The widget sets no cookies and embeds no third-party trackers; fonts are self-hosted.
There’s a free version with the core tools and a Pro version as an annual subscription with all tools, profiles and (coming soon) the WCAG scanner. See the pricing page for details.
No. Setup takes under five minutes and you control everything from a dashboard — position, colour, language and which tools your visitors see.
