The Magento 2 Hyvä Checkout has quickly gained recognition among e-commerce developers for its simplicity, efficiency, and impressive speed. As an add-on to the Hyvä Theme, this checkout module significantly enhances the customer experience in Magento-based stores.
In this article, we will compare the Hyvä Checkout module with the standard Magento Checkout to highlight the differences and benefits of this innovative technology.
What is Hyvä Checkout?
The Hyvä Checkout module is an add-on platform component for Magento 2 that enables e-commerce site owners to develop a customer checkout page featuring the Hyvä frontend theme. Hyvä Magento Checkout is highly regarded for its simple, fast-functioning, highly responsive, and readily customizable design.
The Hyvä Checkout software is not included as part of the license for the Hyvä Theme. The checkout page module is an additional upgrade sold separately for a one-time fee that includes a year of updates and tech support. This custom checkout has become very popular with web developers and end-users, installed on over 3,700 online stores at the time of writing.

Benefits of Hyvä Checkout Over Standard Magento 2 Checkout
The Hyvä Theme supports other checkout options – including the standard Luma Checkout. However, the Hyvä Checkout specifically offers many strong advantages to your business, such as these:
Faster Performance
The Hyvä Checkout page load is over 12 times faster on mobile devices than the Luma Checkout system. The faster checkout page loads are thanks to the minimized JavaScript library and Tailwind CSS. Fast performance makes shopping at an online store easier, so implementing Hyvä Checkout can significantly reduce cart abandonment rates and increase sales conversions.
Simpler Design and Customization
Experienced developers will probably recall that the Magento 2 checkout page customization was very complex and difficult to accomplish. Hyvä Checkout boasts a fundamentally simple, streamlined structure. It is the clean logic, a minimal set of programming files, and the clarity of its requirements that lightened the customization workload.
Mobile Optimization
Multiple cutting-edge customizations are available for Magento-powered Hyvä sites. That includes options for tailoring your checkout page for both desktop computers and mobile devices. A fully optimized mobile checkout experience for all your shoppers will lead to increased revenues and greater customer satisfaction.
Thorough Documentation
Developers implementing the Hyvä Checkout system provide site owners with fully detailed documentation to help streamline the installation process and maintenance throughout the lifetime of the technology’s use.
How To Install Hyvä Checkout on an E-Commerce Store
First, keep in mind that your online store site must have the Hyvä Theme in place to be compatible with Hyvä Checkout. Also, note that the Hyvä Checkout program cannot yet be entirely integrated with the full range of B2B platform capabilities in Adobe Commerce.
Other initial system requirements for Hyvä Checkout installation include:
- PHP 7.4 scripting language, or later version
- Hyvä Themes 1.1.16 or later
- Either free Magento Open Source / OR paid Adobe Commerce 2.4.3 platform or later version for upgraded performance and security
In terms of installation, Hyvä Checkout is just a straightforward Magento 2 module. That means you can expect fast uploading and a smooth experience performing the relatively easy Hyvä Checkout installation process. To install Hyvä Checkout:
- First, retrieve your Hyvä license key.
- Next, run this command: composer require hyva-themes/magento2-hyva-checkout
- If HTML minification is enabled, deactivate it in the configuration settings via this path:
Advanced > Developer > Template Settings > Minify Html.
Or run this command: bin/magento config:set dev/template/minify_html 0
- Next, run the command: bin/magento setup:upgrade
- Then, use Tailwind to obtain style component selections to customize the checkout page and process by replacing these code file inclusions:
- Replace this file with the file path to your Magento theme's folder for web/tailwind:
- vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind/
- Replace this file:
- npm --prefix vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind/ cinpm --prefix vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind/ run build-prod
- Replace the admin configuration accessible through:
- Stores > Configuration > Hyvä Themes > Checkout
- Replace the “Checkout” settings from Luma (the default) to:
- "Hyvä Default" and save changes.
Depending on your resources and goals for the project, you may want to consider the Hyvä React Checkout option. React Checkout is an open-source development alternative accessible through the Javascript Library.
