Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.6 s · 499 KiBAbout 499 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.5 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Mobile performance score: 46
46/100Your mobile performance score is 46 (desktop: 87). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
3,329 HTML elements
The page has 3,329 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
950 ms · 155 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (155 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
940 ms · 148 KiBAbout 148 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 940 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (website-files.com, Optanon and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.7 MB and 858 ms of main-thread time.
website-files.com adds 227 ms
227 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 227 ms of main-thread work and 795 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 2.6 s
A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google CDN adds 124 ms
124 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 124 ms of main-thread work and 348 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 157 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
30 KiB1 image could be 30 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 87 but mobile only 46. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.2 s
13.2 sYour largest element takes 13.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
First Contentful Paint: 5.1 s
5.1 sThe first text or image appears after 5.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 13.3 s
13.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.0 s
8.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest content (LCP) got 25% slower for real visitors
+25%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.5 s to 4.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 467 ms
467 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 467 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
10 images without width and height
10 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 179 ms to 165 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
69bbe852f53519cb6c893736_Mask%20group-p-500.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image in older formats
1 image (74 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.51 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.51 g of CO₂e: 61.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.8 MB in 97 requests
1.8 MBYour homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 97 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (43), fonts 289 KiB (3) and images 147 KiB (36). That is a lean page.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (23 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 23 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 127 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (25 characters)
Your title is only 25 characters: “Integrated payments login”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
