Magento module development — take your service to Estonian and Baltic online stores
Do you offer a payment solution, delivery method or other digital service and want to reach online stores? Magento is the most common platform among large online stores, and creating your own service module allows you to reduce onboarding costs and bring you new customers from e-business.
Lumav has been developing Magento modules for 13+ years. We have developed modules for payment, delivery and other providers. We know the Magento platform from the inside — the created solution works with the desired number of Magento versions, and the developer immediately uses certified practices.
Ask for a module development consultation — describe your service and we will estimate the amount of development.
Why a service provider needs a Magento module
Magento is one of the most popular e-business platforms in Estonia and the Baltic region. In Estonia, nearly 300 online stores operate on the Magento platform. If your service is not interfaced with these stores, you will lose the market to a competitor who is already there.
The module is a sales channel for your service
A Magento module is not just a technical component. This is the sales channel for your service in e-business. If the online store owner adds your module to his shop, it will be easier for him to offer your service. According to the special developments of the checkout and online store, the module may need to be customized, which we can help with.
The module automates processes. Without the module, all communication is done manually.
Without a module, you will be left out of e-business
The Estonian e-business market is growing every year. Service providers who have interfaced with Magento modules early on can offer online stores interfacing on more favorable terms. Even for free.
The three types of Magento modules we develop most often
In the development of Magento modules, we distinguish three main types. Each one solves a specific business need of the service provider.
Payment modules — bank links, installment payment, credit card
Payment modules connect the payment solution of the service provider with the checkout of the Magento online store. The online store owner adds the module and his customers can immediately use your payment method.
We create payment modules suitable for different markets and comfortably with any Magento version.
Delivery modules — parcel machines, couriers, special services
Delivery modules bring your logistics service to the Magento online store checkout. The buyer chooses your parcel machine or courier service directly during the purchase process.
Only in general — we can cover different markets with delivery modules and create additional interfaces as needed.
Service Interfaces — Any digital service that requires a Magento connection
The third module type is broader — any service you want to interface with Magento online stores. This could be customer data enrichment, a loyalty program, price tracking, a customer service tool, or something else.
If your service is digital and the online store benefits from it, we will build a module that creates this connection.
Which module does your service need?
Describe your service and we’ll help you assess whether you need a payment, delivery or broader service interface module.
How Magento module development works
Module development follows a specific process that ensures quality and compatibility with the Magento platform. Our certified developers know the architecture of the platform from the inside — it speeds up development and reduces unexpected problems.
Analysis and requirements mapping
Let’s start with a technical analysis of your service and its API. We map what data exchange the module needs, what the user stories are for the online store owner and his customers, and what technical limitations exist.
If you have previously made modules for other platforms (WooCommerce, Shopify), we will use this experience to specify the requirements.
Development and testing
We develop the Magento blank module following best practices. This means that the module:
- follows Magento code standards
- is compatible with the latest versions of Magento 2
- works with other common modules (no conflicts)
- tested with different setups (singlonline store and multi-store configurations)
In addition, we provide you with a test environment where you can check the module’s settings and operation yourself.
Release and deployment
We will install the finished module for your first customers and monitor its operation. If necessary, we make adjustments according to the specific online store setup. We document the instructions for installing and configuring the module so that the online store owner can manage it himself.
A long-term partnership, not a one-off project
Magento module development is the beginning, not the end. The Magento platform is updated regularly — security updates, new versions, changes in APIs. After each update, the module must continue to work.
Long-term cooperation has a specific advantage: we know the logic and API of your service — each subsequent development is faster and more affordable than the first.
Long-term cooperation includes:
- Ensuring compatibility after Magento upgrades
- adding new functions (e.g. new payment products, new countries)
- bug fixes and performance optimizations
- technical support for online store owners who use the module

Lumav module store
m2start.ee and m2start.com are the public platform of Lumav Magento modules, which we update periodically. There we offer ready-made modules that online store owners can directly purchase and install.
If you want to add your service module to the m2start.ee platform for free download, we can arrange it. This gives you an additional sales channel — online store owners find your service module themselves and install it.
An additional sales channel for the service provider
If your module is publicly available, the connection error of the online store owner will decrease and your service will reach Magento users faster.
Frequently asked questions
How to interface your service with Magento online stores?
This requires a Magento module — a software component that the online store owner installs in his store. The module connects your service’s API with the Magento platform and adds your service to the online store’s checkout or management panel. Lumav develops the module according to the requirements of your service and ensures its compatibility with the Magento platform.
How long does Magento module development take?
The development time depends on the complexity of the module. A simple payment or delivery module is usually ready in a few weeks. A more complex service interface involving multiple data streams and user interfaces may take a few months. Our certified team knows the Magento architecture from the inside, which speeds up development significantly.
Is a ready-made module not enough — why custom development?
Ready-made modules are suitable for standard solutions. If your service needs a specific API interface, customized user interface or unique business logic, the custom module is the only solution. The Custom module follows exactly the requirements of your service and is designed for your customers.
What happens when Magento updates — does the module stop working?
Magento is updated regularly (security updates, new versions). After each update, it is necessary to check whether the module is compatible. Lumav offers long-term module maintenance — we ensure compatibility with new Magento versions, add new functions if necessary and fix errors.
Can the module work in several countries at the same time?
Yes. The Magento platform supports multi-language and multi-currency setup. Our own modules (delivery methods, payment methods) already work in four countries — Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Lithuania. We will develop your module so that it covers all the necessary markets in one installation.
