Volusion is a cloud-based eCommerce platform that is focused on providing all the tools you need to run an online store.
Volusion is not accessible by default. This means that the foundations of the Volusion website building platform do not incorporate accessibility attributes from the get-go. In order for a website to be accessible to people with disabilities and compliant with legislation, it is the website owner’s responsibility to initiate accessibility remediation.
Volusion has partnered with accessiBe, the first and only automated web accessibility solution, to help online store owners make their Volusion websites accessible to people with disabilities and compliant with accessibility legislation, such as the ADA. After a 5-minute implementation of an installation code, accessiBe’s AI automates the process of full web accessibility and compliance with legislation, requiring no further manual intervention on your part.

Previous to having access to accessiBe through Volusion, online store owners had to completely remediate their website on their own. This means manually implementing the WCAG, or web content accessibility guidelines, which are the most widely accepted standards for web accessibility. Manually readjusting code according to this 1000-page guidebook is a challenging task even for the most experienced developer.
accessiBe is able to replace the tedious and time-consuming process of manual remediation that Volusion users would otherwise have to do on their own if accessiBe were not an option. The AI-nature of the solution makes websites accessible in a fraction of the time so naturally, it is a fraction of the cost as well. accessiBe helps Volusion users save valuable time and money to be allocated towards other business ventures.
