Migrate to the new plugin
If you already have a previous implementation of the Mercado Pago plugin on Tiendanube in its native version, you need to migrate to the new version. Follow the steps below to do so.
To perform the migration correctly, you must be logged into the Mercado Pago account you use to receive payments.
Install the new plugin
- In your Tiendanube store's Admin Panel, go to Apps > Go to App Store.
- Search for the Mercado Pago payment method and click Install.
- Give your consent to the application permissions and click Accept.
- You will be redirected to Mercado Pago, where you must log in with your account. Click Allow to authorize the connection.
At this moment, both versions of the plugin will be installed in your store, ensuring that payments continue to work normally during the migration.
Configure the new plugin
After installation, the new application will be available in the Apps section. You will need to configure the payment methods again, since previous settings are not automatically migrated.
- In the left sidebar menu, go to Settings > Payments and Shipping > Payment methods.
- Find the Mercado Pago app and click Activate to start configuring the payment methods.
After confirming that everything is working correctly, proceed to the next step.
Disable the old plugin
With the new application installed, you need to disable the old plugin.
Be careful not to disable the new version.
- In your Tiendanube store's Admin Panel, go to Apps.
- Find the Mercado Pago plugin in the payment methods list and click Disable.
