Mercado Pago Plans Pricing

Commercial model for the Mercado Pago API surface. Mercado Pago does not meter its APIs on a per-request basis — pricing is transaction-based and set per market, per product, per payment method, and per settlement window (immediate, daily, 14-day, 30-day). API access itself is free; the merchant pays per successfully processed transaction. The published Brazilian rates below are representative scaffold values; reconcile per market and per acquiring contract.

Mercado Pago Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Mercado Pago on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.

It defines 2 plans, covering free and usage tiers, with named plans including Developer Access, Transaction Pricing (Brazil reference).

Tagged areas include Payments, Checkout, Subscriptions, POS, and QR.
