How to Buy or Manage Extensions and Themes on Adobe Commerce Marketplace

Updated

Adobe Commerce Marketplace (commercemarketplace.adobe.com) is where you browse, select, and purchase Magento extensions and themes, and it includes a cart for the items you choose. Free listings can be added without payment, while premium listings may require a purchase. You manage your selections through the cart and your account on the site. The steps below cover what you can do and what to check before you commit.

What you can find on the Marketplace

The Marketplace organizes thousands of free and premium Magento extensions and themes, grouped into featured categories so you can narrow down by function rather than scrolling everything. The categories shown on the site include:

  • Customer Support
  • Payments & Security
  • Marketing
  • Accounting & Finance
  • Shipping & Fulfillment
  • Site Optimization

If you already know the type of capability you need, starting from a category is faster than searching the full catalog. If you are comparing options, note whether a listing is free or premium before you add it, since that determines whether checkout involves payment.

Buying an extension or theme

  1. Browse or search the Marketplace and open the listing you want.
  2. Add the item to your cart. The site provides a cart at commercemarketplace.adobe.com/checkout/cart/ for selected items.
  3. Review the cart to confirm exactly what you are purchasing.
  4. Complete checkout for any premium items. Free listings can be added without payment.

What to verify before checkout:

  • Whether the listing is free or premium, so you know if payment applies.
  • Whether the extension or app carries the Assurance Program designation (see below), which signals adherence to quality standards and development best practices.
  • That the item matches your store's needs, since the catalog spans many categories and not every extension fits every setup.

Managing your selections

Your cart is the working area for items you have chosen but not yet finalized. Use it to review, adjust, or remove selections before completing a purchase. Because the site ties cart access to your account, signing in is the practical way to keep your selections and purchases associated with you rather than losing them between sessions.

If you are returning to manage something you already selected, go back to the cart rather than re-adding the item, so you do not end up with duplicates.

Signals worth checking before you buy

Assurance Program

The Assurance Program identifies extensions and apps that adhere to high-quality standards and development best practices. If you want lower risk on a critical part of your store, prioritizing Assurance-designated listings is a reasonable filter.

Partner Program

The Partner Program is a network of consulting companies that help merchants grow their business. This matters if you need implementation help rather than just the extension itself.

Training and Certification

The Marketplace also points to eCommerce training courses for every role in an e-commerce business, and to Adobe Commerce Certification for experienced professionals who want to validate their skills. These are relevant if you are building internal capability alongside your extension purchases.
