Payment Preferences

Find the payment preference settings in the Configure option once you have the module installed. Once inside, activate the checkout you want to offer and configure the options you prefer.

Note
Remember that we have different types of checkout that adapt to the needs of your business and that each one has its own settings.

Business Information

Enter the name of the business to appear on your customers' invoice and make it easier for them to recognize the payment when a purchase summary arrives. Select to which category the products or services offered by the store belong and make other adjustments according to your needs.

Basic information

Important
Do not forget to enter your integrator_id as a certified Mercado Pago Partner. If you don't have it, you can request it now.

Note
All our modules have an open source license. Do you want to participate in its construction? Suggest improvements and editions in Github.

Basic Configuration

  • Define the experience your customers will have:
  • Use the Checkout Pro to support payments with cards, cash and money in account. It will provide security and comfort to the user. And now you can also configure it as a modal to open in your store!
  • Use the Custom Checkout and Ticket Checkout to have control over other settings. Activate both to offer all means of payment.
Important
While you can activate all checkouts, we recommend selecting only one of the experiences so as not to confuse your customers.
  • Select the payment methods available to your customers according to the country in which you operate and the type of checkout you are configuring.

  • Set the maximum number of installments in which they can pay you.

  • Indicate the expiration of face to face payments (Ticket Checkout only).

Advanced Configuration

You will have different settings available depending on the type of checkout you activate in your store. Customize the shopping experience with the advanced settings that apply to each.
