Book a free call ↗BFSG, GDPR and accessibility
This is general information, not legal advice. Your legal adviser has the final word.
Accessibility (BFSG)
Since 28 June 2025, Germany's Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG), which implements the European Accessibility Act, sets accessibility requirements for many consumer services, such as e-commerce and consumer banking. We design to WCAG 2.2 AA and document accessibility decisions.
Official source: BFSG (gesetze-im-internet.de) ↗GDPR and the BDSG
The GDPR and Germany's Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) set the rules for personal data. We design forms, consent and privacy notices that are clear, and collect only the data a journey needs.
Official source: BDSG (gesetze-im-internet.de) ↗BITV 2.0 for public bodies
Federal public bodies in Germany follow the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0) for their websites and apps. If you work for or with the public sector, we design to its requirements.

Frequently asked questions
UI/UX design in Frankfurt: before you book a call.
Do you have a UI/UX design office in Frankfurt?
Yes. Our Frankfurt office is at Taunustor 1, 60310 Frankfurt am Main. You can meet the team there in person or work with us by video; workshops and design reviews work well in either format.
How much does UI/UX design cost in Frankfurt?
Pricing is custom. It depends on the number of journeys and screens, research depth, platforms, whether you need a new design system and your timeline. After a short brief and a free 30-minute call, you get a written estimate.
How long does a UI/UX design project take?
Typically: research and audit 1 to 3 weeks, structure and flows 1 to 2 weeks, prototype and testing 1 to 3 weeks, UI and design system 2 to 6 weeks depending on screen count. These are ranges, not guarantees.
What is the difference between UI and UX design?
UX design is how a product works: structure, flows and how easily people finish tasks. UI design is how it looks: layout, type, colour and components. We do both, starting with UX.
Will our design be accessible?
Yes. WCAG 2.2 level AA is our default target, specified in every design, which helps you meet rules such as the BFSG. Full conformance also depends on the build, so we review it with your developers.
Can you also build what you design?
Yes: our app development team can build it, or we hand over specs and design tokens to your developers and review the build with them. Projects are led by UnFoldMart from our international offices.
Does our product have to be accessible under the BFSG?
If your website or app is part of a consumer service the BFSG covers, such as e-commerce or consumer banking, accessibility requirements have applied since 28 June 2025. We design to WCAG 2.2 AA; your legal adviser confirms whether and how the BFSG applies to you.
Have you done UI/UX design for companies in Germany?
Yes. For example, we did the entire UI/UX design for the website of Re-Twin Energy, an energy company in Germany.
Can we meet in person in Frankfurt?
Yes. Frankfurt is one of our two offices with in-person meetings, at Taunustor 1. Workshops and design reviews can also run by video.
Can the first call be in German?
Yes. The free first call can be in German on our German page; project calls are in English. Designs can be delivered in German and English.
