Cartões

Mercado Pago Cartões (Checkout Transparente) is an app that allows transparent payments with debit or credit cards, where the entire checkout process happens within the online store environment, without the need to redirect to an external page. In addition to providing greater control in the customization and integration process, it reduces cart abandonment and increases the possibility of conversion.

Attention

This new application is exclusive for card payments. To configure Pix payments, refer to the corresponding documentation . For boleto bancário payments, use Mercado Pago Checkout Pro .
