How to activate it with my Mercado Pago account?

Connect a Mercado Pago account to the app to capture the collections of your orders on Shopify. It’s easy! You only need to have a seller account in Mercado Pago and obtain the test and production credentials.

Once the checkout is installed, follow these steps:

  1. Create a seller account in Mercado Pago if you don’t have one yet.
  2. Get the Public Key and Access Token credentials, and paste them in the Production and Testing fields that you will find in the app settings.
  3. Approve the account to go to Production and receive the money from your sales in Mercado Pago.

Done! With this configuration you can start selling and get the payments you receive in your Mercado Pago account.

Importante
The credentials are the keys that uniquely identify you within Mercado Pago. They will allow you to simulate payments in a test environment and receive real payments once you are ready to go to production.

How to test the checkout?

The Mercado Pago app extension comes with the default testing environment, so that you can simulate payments in the store and verify that everything works well before you start receiving real payments from your customers.

This is where the test credentials you entered in the module when integrating Mercado Pago to your store come into play.

When you test, check that the payment flow works correctly.

When you see that everything is going well, deactivate the Tests mode and go to the Production mode to receive real payments.

Go to production

To start receiving payments, you must activate your credentials.

Check the requirements to go to production if you have any questions about the process.

To activate them, make sure that the production credentials entered are those of the account that you receive money from sales.

Activate the Production mode only if you are ready to sell and you have tested the checkout with simulated payments in the testing phase.

Done! Mercado Pago Transparent Checkout is ready to receive payments online.

Mercado Pago Redirect Checkout

Configure our module to finalize the purchase on Mercado Pago site during the purchase process in your Shopify store.
