Magento Development Services

The full Magento stack —
build, migrate, extend, automate.

Magento's power is its flexibility. Its challenge is that flexibility requires real expertise to use correctly. MercuryMinds has been delivering that expertise since 2008 — across custom builds, M1 to M2 migrations and Hyva theme implementations.

Custom Magento 2 Development

Bespoke Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce store builds — custom modules, complex catalogue structures, B2B functionality, multi-website setups and enterprise integrations. Built to Magento coding standards, performance-first.

Hyva Theme Development

Hyva is the modern Magento frontend — significantly faster than Luma, dramatically simpler to customise. MercuryMinds builds custom Hyva themes from scratch and converts existing Luma themes to Hyva for performance gains without full rebuilds.

Magento 1 to Magento 2 Migration

M1 reached end-of-life in 2020 — stores still running it are carrying real security risk. MercuryMinds migrates from M1 to M2 or Adobe Commerce with full data integrity, custom module equivalence and SEO continuity.

Custom Module Development

Custom Magento modules for functionality that doesn't exist in the marketplace — from complex pricing rules to multi-warehouse fulfilment logic to custom ERP data flows.

ERP & Adobe Commerce Integrations

Direct API integrations between Magento/Adobe Commerce and SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, NetSuite, HubSpot and custom ERP systems — built as production data pipelines, not fragile middleware.

Magento SEO & Performance

Magento's default SEO configuration leaves significant organic equity on the table. MercuryMinds implements technical SEO for Magento — canonical tags, structured data, sitemap architecture, Core Web Vitals and page speed optimisation.

Hyva Theme Development

Hyva is the fastest
way to fix Magento's
frontend problem.

The Luma frontend that ships with Magento 2 is slow by modern standards — large JavaScript bundles, poor Core Web Vitals scores and complex customisation overhead. Hyva replaces it entirely with a lightweight Alpine.js and Tailwind CSS stack.

The result: significantly faster page loads, better Google PageSpeed scores and dramatically faster theme customisation. MercuryMinds builds custom Hyva themes and converts existing Luma themes to Hyva without disrupting the underlying Magento architecture.

Faster page loads

Hyva stores consistently score significantly higher on Google PageSpeed than Luma — directly impacting organic rankings and conversion rate.

Simpler to customise

Alpine.js and Tailwind CSS are standard modern frontend tools — easier to maintain, faster to modify, and not dependent on Magento-specific frontend knowledge.

Luma-to-Hyva conversion

Existing Magento stores can migrate to Hyva without rebuilding the backend — MercuryMinds converts the frontend layer while leaving the catalogue, integrations and custom modules intact.

Beyond the Store

Your Magento data is
more valuable than
your store knows.

Magento stores accumulate years of order data, customer behaviour, catalogue structure and ERP integration data. Most of it sits unused. MercuryMinds builds the AI layer that turns it into automated workflows — catalog enrichment, pricing intelligence, customer retention systems.

Catalog

AI Catalog Enrichment for Magento

Automated attribute extraction, description generation and taxonomy classification across your Magento catalogue — at any SKU count.

Pricing

Magento Pricing Intelligence

Competitor price tracking and repricing automation integrated with Magento's native pricing rules and customer group pricing.

Migration

Considering Shopify?

MercuryMinds actively builds on both platforms — which means the Magento-to-Shopify migration is handled by a team that knows both sides, not just the destination.

Integration

n8n & API Automation

Replace Zapier workflows with direct API pipelines built on Magento's REST and GraphQL APIs — more reliable, higher throughput, no per-task pricing.

How We Work

From brief to
live Magento store.

Fixed scope. Fixed price. Named Magento developer throughout. Every project delivers full documentation and code ownership at handover.

Technical Audit

Current platform version, custom module inventory, integration map, performance baseline and SEO equity assessment — documented before scoping begins. For M1-to-M2 migrations this is the most important stage.

Architecture & Scope

Module architecture, Hyva theme design, ERP integration schema and data migration plan — all agreed and fixed before development starts. No scope creep, no change requests mid-build.

Build & Validate

Development on staging with staged client reviews. Custom modules tested against Magento coding standards. Integration testing against live ERP data before any go-live is scheduled.

Launch & Handover

Zero-downtime go-live with full redirect deployment for migrations. Complete technical documentation, team training and code handover. 30-day post-launch support included as standard.

Why MercuryMinds for Magento

We've been building
on Magento since
before Adobe acquired it.

Most Magento agencies that launched in the last five years have never seen a Magento 1 installation. MercuryMinds has been building on Magento since 2008 — through every version, every major release and the Adobe acquisition. The institutional knowledge is irreplaceable.

What is the difference between Magento and Adobe Commerce?

Magento Open Source (formerly Magento Community) is the free, self-hosted version. Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento Enterprise / Commerce Edition) is the commercial version — it adds B2B functionality, advanced staging and preview, enhanced search, customer segmentation and Adobe's cloud hosting platform (Adobe Commerce Cloud). Most mid-market merchants run Magento Open Source 2. Adobe Commerce is typically relevant for merchants above $10M annual revenue who need the enterprise feature set or are heavily invested in the Adobe Experience Cloud ecosystem.

What is Hyva theme development?

Hyva is a modern frontend framework for Magento 2 that replaces the default Luma theme with a significantly faster stack built on Alpine.js and Tailwind CSS. Magento 2 stores running Luma typically score poorly on Core Web Vitals — Hyva stores score substantially higher, which directly impacts Google rankings and conversion rates. MercuryMinds builds custom Hyva themes from scratch and converts existing Luma themes to Hyva, keeping the underlying Magento backend intact.

How much does Magento development cost?

Magento 2 development costs vary by scope. A custom store build on Magento Open Source typically ranges from $15,000–$50,000 depending on catalogue complexity, custom modules and integration count. A Hyva theme build adds $5,000–$15,000 to a standard build or conversion. Magento 1 to Magento 2 migrations are scoped individually — typically $20,000–$80,000+ for stores with significant customisation. MercuryMinds provides fixed-price scopes: no time-and-materials billing, no scope creep.

Should I migrate from Magento to Shopify?

The honest answer: it depends on your business requirements, not which platform we prefer. MercuryMinds builds actively on both Magento and Shopify, so the recommendation is based on your specific situation. Shopify is typically better for merchants who want lower maintenance overhead, faster deployment and good-enough customisation. Magento is typically better for merchants with complex B2B pricing, multi-website setups, unusual catalogue structures or deep ERP integration requirements. We will tell you which one fits your operation rather than defaulting to the easier sale.

Do you offer Magento SEO services?

Yes. Magento's default SEO configuration misses significant organic equity — canonical tag issues, duplicate content from layered navigation, poor structured data implementation and slow page speed. MercuryMinds implements technical Magento SEO as part of builds and as standalone engagements: canonical tag audit and fix, structured data implementation, Hyva performance improvements for Core Web Vitals, XML sitemap architecture and crawl budget optimisation.

Do you work with UK and US Magento merchants?

Yes. MercuryMinds serves Magento and Adobe Commerce merchants in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. The delivery team is based in Chennai, India. For UK merchants: GDPR compliance, VAT configuration and UK payment gateway integrations are handled as standard. For US merchants: US tax configuration, US payment gateways and CCPA compliance where applicable. Sales enquiries receive a response within 24 hours.
