Automatic reconciliation
How it works
By integrating QR Code payments, your customers can pay instantly by scanning a QR code linked to your Mercado Pago account. When scanning the code, the amount to pay appears automatically on the customer's device, streamlining the process. The system can generate dynamic QR codes for each transaction, static codes for fixed points of sale, or even combine both options as needed.
- Create the payment order from your system using our unified API.
- In your system, you need to generate and display a QR code on the point of sale screen, which can be dynamic (different for each transaction) or static (the same for all transactions).
- The buyer pays using the selected payment method.
- The integrated system receives notification about the payment status.
What it offers
Integrating Mercado Pago's API into your project completely transforms the payment experience, unlike models without integration, where each payment must be processed and reconciled manually.
- Static model: fixed QR code associated with a POS for multiple transactions.
- Dynamic model: unique QR code generated specifically for each transaction.
- Hybrid model: intelligent combination of static and dynamic model functionalities. The amount to pay is reflected in the static QR and, at the same time, a dynamic QR exclusive for each transaction is generated.
- Manage payments directly from your system.
- Receive automatic notifications via webhooks in real-time.
- Automatic reconciliation of operations with Mercado Pago.
- Connect your project through a single API to manage orders, payments, and notifications.
- Avoid multiple integrations and centralize your technical development with Mercado Pago.
- Protect data involved in transactions with HTTPS protocols and OAuth authentications.
- The API automatically manages the transaction lifecycle, eliminating the need for manual intervention, reducing errors, and increasing operational efficiency.
