PayU launches accessible checkout for visually impaired users

PayU launches accessible checkout for visually impaired users

PayU is a company that helps people pay for things online.

It has made a new special checkout page to help people who cannot see well.

Some people who are blind use screen readers that read the screen out loud.

The new checkout works with screen readers so users can hear what is on the page.

Users can choose how to pay, check the amount, and finish their payment using their voice.

People with low vision can change the colours on the page, like making it high contrast or black and white.

They can also make the text bigger, up to double its normal size.

Users can save their favourite settings so they do not have to change them every time.

Stores that already use PayU do not need to change anything, and the goal is to let everyone pay online by themselves without needing help.
