Before we get on with thelist, a brief introduction is a must .Magento is an open-source content management system providing solutions for e-commerce web sites and as such comes in a variety of flavors. In the following paragraphs, you will learn some of the best checkout ideas proposed or implemented on a Magento platform.

One Step Checkout

Why not reduce six steps to one and make it more convenient for your buyers and simplifying the whole process? It will provide an overall better customer experience and help avoid confusion regarding registration.And also it will add plenty of side features to augment the extension.

Different, yet Simple

Make an extension that is simple yet unique, offering the benefit of maintainability and adaptability as well as accessibility. It will also be easy to document and modify.  Just maintain all the core payment and shipping methods while throwing in the options of neat added features such as gift cards and Checkout Agreements. In other words, be creative.

Pure Customer Satisfaction

Offer a year of a free customer support with your extension; also keep the installation and setup assistance free. Let them pay only for the license at competitive rates, keep the product top notch. While this might be sounding crazy, many others have implemented such strategies and have become successful. You see, something that looks bad on paper doesn’t mean it will also look bad in reality.

Offer a Smart Alternative

Magento is already a very powerful e-commerce framework, but a product’s relation to another has to be set up manually. Provide a smart, alternative way to automatically set the products based on their aspects in comparison to other products.Add some more nice features to fully polish the final product and wait and watch as the product gets ever popular.

Responsive Modal

Setup a fully responsive modal that displays the image and the YouTube videos for the customer’s chosen product. Allow features to give the admin more flexibility and a good simple innovative extension is born.

Get NSA-ish

Make an extension that stores the customer’s information and attributes in order to provide better service and fulfill their needs and ironically this will also build up a stronger, more loyal customer base.

Language Package

Magento, despite being so popular is not available in all languages. Capitalize on this by creating your custom language package!

ERP Inside

Extend the usability and flexibility of  Magento by adding ERP features in the extensions ,offering the user the option of managing stock, purchasing and logistic and keeping you way ahead of your competitions.

Cooperate Theme

Just improving the aesthetics can also be a good idea sometimes.

Sharing is Caring

Offer features to connect and easily set preferences for selling into multi-channel global marketplaces like Amazon or eBay.It also will minimize downtime and can start processing sales transactions rather quickly.

Bank Payment

Finally, this is a nifty idea that notifies the user when and to which bank account heor has to transfer the moneyto.
