Custom Magento extension development built for your business
What Magento extensions do
Magento extensions add new functionality beyond the platform’s core features. You can purchase them from the Magento Marketplace, download free versions, or get them directly from developers. Extensions transform your standard store into a customized ecommerce powerhouse.
Common extension types we develop
Our developers build extensions across the full spectrum of ecommerce functionality.
Popular extension categories:
- Payment integration
- Shipping and tracking
- ERP systems
- One-step checkout optimization
- Gift card management systems
- Advanced caching solutions
- SEO enhancement tools
- Analytics integration
- And virtually any custom functionality your business requires
Buy vs build - making the right choice
We typically recommend purchasing existing extensions when possible. Chances are high that someone already built what you need. Buying saves both time and money since you’re not funding development from scratch.
Commercial extensions come from companies focused full-time on Magento development. This specialization ensures quality, ongoing updates, and bug fixes that keep pace with Magento’s platform evolution.
Why we avoid modifying purchased extensions
Modifying purchased extensions creates significant complications for future upgrades. There’s substantial risk that changes will break functionality when the original developer releases updates.
While small tweaks seem tempting, we strongly advise against modifications unless absolutely necessary. Clean extension management prevents technical debt and reduces long-term maintenance costs.
When custom extension development makes sense
Sometimes your business needs truly don’t match any existing solution. That’s when custom development becomes the strategic choice.
Our team brings extensive Magento extension expertise to every project. We can help you find the right existing extension, or when marketplace options fall short, we build custom solutions for your specialized requirements.

Commonly asked questions
Should I buy an existing extension or build a custom one?
We typically recommend purchasing existing extensions when they fit your needs. Buying saves time and money since commercial extensions come with ongoing updates and bug fixes. Custom development makes sense when no existing solution matches your specific requirements, or when you need functionality optimized precisely for your workflows.

"What a Team! Brilliant, skilled people that always go the extra mile for the customer. I'm very happy for the cooperation. Our company is based in Europe, so it's also nice its easy to get in contact with 1902 within office hours. Can recommend anybody to reach out and see if 1902 can help with your project. Worth every 5 stars."
"We have been customers for a few years and are super happy with their work. When we started, of course, we were apprehensive, putting the tasks on the other side of the earth. But all our worries have actually been put to shame as we have only experienced benefits fr om moving it out. Before our change, we were with a couple of Danish developers wh ere the price was high and the service low. Our experiences at 1902 are the complete opposite. After collaborating with 1902 for a season, we have chosen to convert to Magento 2 solution, which is a larger project. It was resolved on time and at the agreed price. And we felt pressured and in good hands throughout the project. We experience a very large advantage in the time difference. If we have something to adjust, we put a task in the course of a normal working day, when we start the next day, the task is usually solved and ready for testing, if not it has at least begun. We highly recommend that you contact Peter and hear about the opportunities they offer. Trævarefabrikernes UDSALG Henrik Lange" (Translated from Danish)
"We've had the most incredible collaboration with the team at 1902 Software! We've worked with the team for about 6 months now, and they have taken our Magento web shop to a whole new level. The tasks are completed to an excellent standard in a timely manner and they're always ready to provide advice or guidance. The thing I'm most impressed with is how organised and transparent everything is when it comes to our collaboration. We receive weekly status updates so we can see how much time has been spent on each task (and how much those tasks cost), as well as direct updates from our Project Manager. I want to give an extra big thanks to Merry Kris Salas for being so friendly and providing help and input on anything we ask her - we couldn't wish for a better project manager! She continually updates us on the progress of various tasks, provides advice when we're unsure how to proceed and follows up on questions and concerns we may have. This makes us feel completely relaxed about handing tasks over, and we're so happy to have her and her team as our collaboration partners!"
"Great and easy to work with, they completed the task in no time."
"Fast and efficient. Very good at reviewing the tasks and preparing everything before starting on the job." (Translated from Danish)
"We are pleased with the collaboration with 1902 Software. We have created some good relationships and despite the distance, language and time zones, it feels like we are close to each other. Thumbs up from here. Sincerely, Trævarefabrikernes Udsalg" (Translated from Danish)
"Very professional work from day 1. Had a really good introduction of 1902, and I was onboarded in a really nice way. Pricing and quality is spot on. I would recommend 1902 Software to everybody who takes their online business serious and would like to move their business to the next level."
"1902 Software is an extremely professional and hard working company. When you give them a task, they will provide you with an estimate when the task is done. They always get tasks done on time. I work for a company where we use them all the time and I can highly recommend them to everyone looking for great developers."
"Highly professional software bureau."
"Great service and delivers as promised."
"Great people to work with. They know what they do, take initiative, and can bring your project to the next level."
"1902 has done an excellent job on our website. They care about optimizing both big issues and smaller detailed ones. No task is impossible. The service level is high and the reply rate is impeccable. We will continue with their services in the future."
"The team has a great and fast customer service. They respond quickly to our problems and resolve support tasks to perfection. Even though we are based in two different countries the communication is not a problem at all."
"The act of choosing a new partner to create a concept for a new site was a long process. Our choice was ultimately 1902 Software, which proved to be the right decision. My main concern was 1902's location in the Philippines, as we've had bad experiences with "cheap" programmers who do not understand what you want and just hardcode everything (no forward thinking or function coding). But this concern has been proven wrong, as 1902 has highly professional and skilled people who can think independently, come with inputs and feedback on your ideas, and generally, are solution-oriented as they work hard to resolve your problems. With 1902, we also received full transparency with the billing. We can follow the details of how their time is being spent and how much is being billed in minutes. Thus, there is never an unpleasant surprise. And on the results, there is nothing to complain about. One of the strongest services of 1902 is their graphic design, which made 1902 top our list of choices. Our expectations for our project has been fully met indeed. Their coding/programming skills cannot be underestimated. They obviously have a long experience with Magento, and have been able to provide custom-made solutions without any problems. All in all, we are a satisfied customer." (Translated from Danish)
"We have been collaborating with 1902 Software for approximately 6 months now, and we very satisfied with what has been delivered. One feels that there are people with experience and competencies. They must have great praise for their service and speed in the solution / delivery of tasks."
"Great staff!"
"We are very satisfied with 1902 Software's service. They are very professional and we always receiving fast respond regardless any questions at any time."
"All was good. I can only say good about 1902 even they are so far away the timezone is no problem..."
