Hyvä builds · 90+ Core Web Vitals · Fixed-price projects
The Luma theme was never built for the modern web. Hyvä, adopted by thousands of merchants, is how Magento 2 storefronts are built today. Here is what Luma costs you, and what Hyvä gives you instead.
Luma loads heavy JavaScript on every page. Google penalises slow stores in search rankings. Hyvä changes this dramatically.
Customising Luma means wrestling with Less CSS, RequireJS, and Knockout data bindings. Hyvä's Tailwind-first approach is far more direct.
Luma customisation requires deep specialist knowledge. Hyvä is built on technologies every modern developer already knows, so day rates go further.
Luma is in maintenance mode and going nowhere. Every year you wait, the gap grows and the migration becomes larger.
Magento's default checkout is slow and clunky, and that is exactly where baskets are lost. Hyvä Checkout replaces it with a fast, streamlined flow designed to turn more visits into orders.
A single, lightweight checkout page instead of Magento's slow multi-step flow, so customers reach the pay button in seconds.
Most checkouts are abandoned on a phone. Hyvä Checkout is optimised for mobile and loads far faster than the standard Magento checkout.
Guest checkout, smart defaults, and fewer fields mean fewer drop-offs between the basket and a completed order.
Hyvä Checkout can run standalone, so you can get the faster checkout now, even if the rest of your storefront is still on Luma.
It also supports built-in A/B testing, so we can keep trialling layouts and payment options and hold on to whatever lifts conversion. Hyvä Checkout is a separately licensed Hyvä module, and we handle the setup and integration for you.

Typical scores for a Hyvä storefront compared with the same store on Luma.
Indicative figures. Scores vary by server, extensions, and catalogue size. Faster stores also convert better; speed improvements consistently show up in conversion rates.
Before Lightwork, we ran our own ecommerce operations: over £5M in revenue and 250,000+ orders. We treat a replatform the way an owner would: protect rankings, protect conversion, launch out of hours, and measure the result. We pair that experience with expert Magento developers.
Lightwork is a small team of niche ecommerce and Magento specialists, and we keep our client list deliberately small. No account managers, no juniors, no ticket queue between you and an answer. The person you speak to is the person doing the work.
Every Hyvä project is scoped first, then delivered for a fixed price, so the quote you accept is the price you pay. The figures below are typical starting points; your quote depends on catalogue complexity, extension count and custom requirements.
There is no obligation to pair your Hyvä work with a support plan. But if you want expert Magento 2 support, we are here: security patches, performance, banners, sales and promotions, and senior development, all in one monthly plan.
Plans from £295/month + VAT
Most popular Magento extensions now have Hyvä compatibility modules. We audit every extension on your store before we quote, so you know exactly what is covered before any work begins.
Your URLs, content and metadata stay exactly as they are; only the frontend changes. Faster Core Web Vitals typically help rankings rather than hurt them.
It depends on how many extensions and how much customisation your store carries. We confirm a timeline alongside your fixed quote, and your live store keeps trading throughout the build.
Yes. We can replicate your current design closely on Hyvä, or use the migration as an opportunity to refresh it. The choice is yours.
No. Hyvä Checkout is optional and separately licensed. We will tell you honestly whether it is worth it for your store.
We will review your current Magento setup, assess what is involved, and give you a fixed-price quote. No obligation to proceed. And once you are live, our Magento support plans from £295 per month keep the store moving.
