Configuring payment conditions - VTEX - Mercado Pago Developers

Configure payment conditions

Payment conditions are the payment methods that are displayed on the website for the checkout. They allow the configuration of fees, interests, special conditions, etc.

After you have created your affiliation with MercadoPagoV2, you must configure the payment conditions that will be offered to buyers.

Important
Verify in your VTEX application store that the App Mercado Pago Payment APP has been installed to use the MercadoPagoPro, MercadoPagoWallet and MercadoPagoOff payment conditions, or request its installation by the VTEX team through VTEX Support.

The configuration of payment conditions is done in the Payment conditions tab of the Settings menu in the Payments module in the VTEX platform administrator portal. In this tab, you must click on the "+" button (Add new payment condition for ...) and select on eof the following payment conditions:

  • Credit Card: this refers to credit card transactions carried out on your store's website. This setup requires you to select each credit card brand that you want in your store. Click here to see a list of available credit card brands. In addition, depending on the payment terms you select (Cash or Installments), your configuration may require you to fill in additional fields.

  • Debit card: this referers to debit card transactions.

  • PSE: to offer PSE as a payment method in your VTEX store, you must make sure first to install the PSE App developed by VTEX. In order to do so, you must follow the steps listed below:

    • In your VTEX store, go to Settings> Apps> App store.
    • Look for Banks for PSE and download the app for your store.
Important
In case you can’t find the app in the App store, you can enter the URL https://VTEXACCOUNT.myvtex.com/admin/apps/vtex.banks-for-pse@0.1.2/setup/, changing "VTEXACCOUNT" for the name of the VTEX store where you'd like to install the app.

After installing Banks for PSE, you can continue configuring PSE as a payment method following the steps previously mentioned.

  • Other: this refers to transactions with MercadoPagoOff, MercadoPagoWallet, or MercadoPagoPro.
    • If you configure MercadoPagoPro, the buyer will make the payment in the Mercado Pago environment, via a form presented directly in their store and will have access to all payment methods available on the platform.

    • If you configure MercadoPagoWallet, the buyer will use their Mercado Pago wallet. This mode is exclusive to buyers registered in Mercado Pago or Mercado Libre and we suggest using it if you select Credit Card Payment Condition.

    • If you configure MercadoPagoOff, you can use means of payment in cash.
