Magento 2 ExtensionCustomer ID
Unique customer IDs for B2B and B2C stores: assign automatically, migrate safely, and connect seamlessly with ERP/CRM.
With the Magento 2 Customer ID module, you establish a clear and reliable customer numbering logic. Instead of technical default IDs, you work with unique, meaningful customer IDs that fit your business processes.
Automatic assignment with rules: New customers automatically receive the next available number. Formats like KND-%04d can be controlled flexibly using prefixes, suffixes, and counters.
Less effort in day-to-day operations: Your sales, customer service, and accounting teams work with familiar customer IDs instead of inconsistent references. This reduces follow-up questions and speeds up processes.
Stable ERP and CRM connectivity: Customer IDs remain consistent across systems and can be used reliably in integrations, for example for order synchronization and master data maintenance.
Better data quality protection: Duplicate checks prevent repeated assignments. Number ranges can be separated globally or per website, keeping even multi-tenant setups clean.
Clean migration of existing records: Existing customer IDs from legacy systems can be imported. This enables a smooth transition without process disruption.
The result: consistent master data, fewer manual corrections, and a Magento store that scales across B2B and B2C scenarios.
Automatically assign customer IDs
New customers automatically receive the next available customer ID. This reduces manual work and keeps master data consistent.
Control ID formats flexibly
Define customer IDs with prefixes, suffixes, and leading zeros to match your internal rules and processes.
Enable login with customer ID
B2B customers can sign in with either customer ID or email. This simplifies access and reduces support effort.
Manage number ranges per website
Use separate number ranges per website or globally to avoid overlaps in multi-store environments.
Prevent duplicates and invalid entries
Before saving, the module validates uniqueness and format of the customer ID to protect data quality and downstream systems.
Make customer IDs usable in integrations
Customer IDs are available as stable references for ERP and CRM processes, enabling clean system integrations.

Under Stores >Configuration > MageB2B > Customer ID, enable auto-increment. Then define your number format (for example KND-%04d) and, if needed, a number range.
Use printf patterns: %d for sequential numbers, %04d for leading zeros. Prefixes and suffixes are possible, for example KND-%04d or %04d-2026.
Yes. Enable login with customer ID. Customers can then sign in using either email address or customer ID plus password.
Before each assignment, uniqueness is checked. If there is a conflict, duplicate control logs the event and assigns the next free number.
Temporarily disable auto-increment, import values via the customer_id column, and then enable automatic assignment again.
Extend the range or remove the limit. The module logs these cases so you can react early.
Yes. Switch to website scope and set an individual format there. For independent sequences, the global number range should be disabled.
Depending on configuration, it appears in customer management in admin, in orders, in the customer account, and in emails or documents.
Yes. The customer ID is available via REST and SOAP. With suitable configuration, it can also be exposed in GraphQL as a custom attribute.
Export existing IDs, import them as customer_id, and then configure the desired format for new customers. This keeps existing records unchanged while new assignments run automatically.
The license is valid for one Magento installation, including multi-website operation. In addition, the module may be installed on any number of development or staging servers. You can find further details in our license terms.
Installation and configuration are not included in the price. On request, we can support you with a smooth integration into your system.
You can pay by credit card (Stripe) or bank transfer (prepayment). For credit card payments, the order is processed immediately and the access credentials are provided directly in a separate follow-up email.
After credit card payment, you immediately receive access credentials to obtain the module via Composer. For bank transfer, access is granted once the invoice is paid.
Custom requests are no problem. We tailor our Magento 2 modules to your project and maintain a dedicated internal version so we always know exactly what runs on your system for support.
On each module detail page, you can request your own demo instance and test the module intensively for 7 days. However, we do not provide a local demo version.
No, the source code of our modules is not encrypted. If you need a customization, feel free to send us a request. We will get back to you promptly with a non-binding quote.
You can add a support package to your order. It includes assistance as well as updates and upgrades related to the module. No continuous subscription is required.

Customer ID
×Ideal for these industries & use cases
Legacy system migration
Import existing customer IDs from ERP, CRM, or legacy systems without process breaks. This keeps daily operations stable during Magento migration.
Simplified Login
Customers sign in with their familiar customer ID instead of long email addresses. This reduces support requests and improves usability.
ERP/SAP integration
Consistent customer IDs across Magento, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, and other systems. The customer ID can be used reliably in integrations and interfaces.
Number ranges per website
Define separate number ranges per website, for example DE: 1000-1999 and AT: 2000-2999. This prevents overlaps in multi-store environments.
Auditability and compliance
Traceable assignment with duplicate control supports internal and regulatory audit requirements, for example under GoBD and SOX.
Flexible number formats
Create formats such as K-0001, CID-10000, or DE-2024-0001 using prefixes, suffixes, and counters. This maps your existing numbering model precisely.
Try it without risk
Request a personal demo instance and evaluate the module directly in backend and frontend under real conditions — without local installation.
