Integration via Deep Linking

One of the ways to integrate with Mercado Pago is via Deep Linking. When said link is called, it is intercepted as a Point-handled address by the Mercado Pago application.

In the "call" to this link you can send different parameters that will be taken by the Mercado Pago application and will impact the payment. Once you´ve made that call to the previously defined link, the user will be redirected to the Mercado Pago application to swipe the card and make the purchase.

Once the payment is proccesed, the user will be redirected to the success_url or fail_url, depending on the result. This must be intercepted to return the user to the application.
