Receive card payments

With Mercado Pago you can collect card information in a secure way through our Tokenizer.

Step 1: Add viewport data

Set the viewport by adding the following code inside the <head> tag of your website:

Html 

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no"/>

Step 2: Add HTML code

This fragment of HTML code will insert a payment button. When the buyer presses the button, the checkout will be displayed. Include the following code in the place where the button will be located within your website:

Html 

<form action="https://www.my-site.com/process-payment" method="POST">
  <script
    src="https://www.mercadopago.com.ar/integrations/v1/web-tokenize-checkout.js"
    data-public-key="ENV_PUBLIC_KEY"
    data-transaction-amount="100.00">
  </script>
</form>

Note

You can find the public key in the credentials page.

Step 3: Get the data

Web Tokenize Checkout will do a POST to the URL that you have defined in the action attribute of the HTML code snippet (In the example: /process-payment) with certain data. You must use this information to make the payment.

Data:

Data Description
token  Unique identifier of the tokenized card
payment_method_id Payment method chosen by the buyer
installments Amount of installments chosen by the buyer
issuer_id ID of the issuer of the buyer's card

You will not receive the transaction_amount neither the payer.email for security reasons.

<?php
  $token = $_REQUEST["token"];
  $payment_method_id = $_REQUEST["payment_method_id"];
  $installments = $_REQUEST["installments"];
  $issuer_id = $_REQUEST["issuer_id"];
?>

String token = request.getParameter("token");
String payment_method_id = request.getParameter("payment_method_id");
Int installments = request.getParameter("installments");
Int issuer_id = request.getParameter("issuer_id");

const token = req.body.token;
const payment_method_id = req.body.payment_method_id;
const installments = req.body.installments;
const issuer_id = req.body.issuer_id;

token = request.body.token
payment_method_id = request.body.payment_method_id
installments = request.body.installments
issuer_id = request.body.issuer_id

token = Request["token"]
payment_method_id = Request["payment_method_id"]
installments = Request["installments"]
issuer_id = Request["issuer_id"]

Step 4: Creating the payment

To make the payment, you must perform an API call using the SDK de Mercado Pago that corresponds with the programming language that you are using on your site.

You should only make an API call including the data you received from the checkout:

<?php  
    require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

    MercadoPago\SDK::setAccessToken("ENV_ACCESS_TOKEN");
    //...
    $payment = new MercadoPago\Payment();
    $payment->transaction_amount = 146;
    $payment->token = $token;
    $payment->description = "Fantastic Linen Car";
    $payment->installments = $installments;
    $payment->payment_method_id = $payment_method_id;
    $payment->issuer_id = $issuer_id;
    $payment->payer = array(
    "email" => "lesly.maggio@gmail.com"
    );
    // Guarda y postea el pago
    $payment->save();
    //...
    // Imprime el estado del pago
    echo $payment->status;
    //...
?>

MercadoPago.SDK.setAccessToken("ENV_ACCESS_TOKEN");
//...
Payment payment = new Payment();
payment.setTransactionAmount(146)
       .setToken(token)
       .setDescription("Fantastic Linen Car")
       .setInstallments(installments)
       .setPaymentMethodId(payment_method_id)
       .setIssuerId(issuer_id)
       .setPayer(new Payer()
         .setEmail("lesly.maggio@gmail.com"));
// Save and create the payment
payment.save();
//...
// Shows payment stauts
System.out.println(payment.getStatus());
//...

var mercadopago = require('mercadopago');
mercadopago.configurations.setAccessToken(config.access_token);

var payment_data = {
  transaction_amount: 146,
  token: token,
  description: 'Fantastic Linen Car',
  installments: installments,
  payment_method_id: payment_method_id,
  issuer_id: issuer_id,
  payer: {
    email: 'lesly.maggio@gmail.com'
  }
};

// Save and do the payment POST
mercadopago.payment.save(payment).then(function (data) {
  // ...    
  // Shows payment stauts
  Console.log(payment.status);
}).catch(function (error) {
  // ...
});


require 'mercadopago'
MercadoPago::SDK.access_token = "ENV_ACCESS_TOKEN";

payment = MercadoPago::Payment.new()
payment.transaction_amount = 146
payment.token = token
payment.description = 'Fantastic Linen Car'
payment.installments = installments
payment.payment_method_id = payment_method_id
payment.issuer_id = issuer_id
payment.payer = {
  email: "lesly.maggio@gmail.com"
}
# Save and create the payment
payment.save()


using MercadoPago;
using MercadoPago.DataStructures.Payment;
using MercadoPago.Resources;
// ...
MercadoPago.SDK.SetAccessToken(ENV_ACCESS_TOKEN);
//...
Payment payment = new Payment()
{
    TransactionAmount = float.Parse("146"),
    Token = token,
    Description = "Fantastic Linen Car",
    Installments = installments,
    PaymentMethodId = payment_method_id,
    IssuerId = issuer_id,
    Payer = new Payer(){
        Email = "lesly.maggio@gmail.com"
    }
};
// Save and create the payment
payment.Save();
//...
// Shows payment stauts
Console.log(payment.Status);
//...

The fields required to send are token, transaction_amount, payment_method_id and the payer.email.
