Speed

10 to fix46
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.6 s · 499 KiB

    About 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 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 46

    46/100

    Your 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 KiB

    15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (155 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    940 ms · 148 KiB

    About 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 ms

    website-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 ms

    Google 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 KiB

    1 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 KiB

    Polyfills 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 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.2 s

    13.2 s

    Your 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 s

    The 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 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 13.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.0 s

    8.0 s

    Visually, 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 ms

    Scripts 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).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 123 ms

    123 ms

    Real visitors wait 123 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

  • Real-user FCP: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

  • Real-user TTFB: 617 ms

    617 ms

    Real visitors wait 617 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • 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 g

    By 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 MB

    Your 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

6 to fixGoogle 9294
  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8584
  • 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.

  • 216 internal links, 33 external

    The homepage links to 216 pages on paya.com and 33 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 134 characters

    Your meta description is 134 characters: “Discover how Nuvei's integrated payment technology is delivering smarter, faster payment solutions to businesses across…”.

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.nuvei.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

3 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (10,863 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.nuvei.com/llms.txt (22 KiB, 78 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
