🌟 Getting Started
First time using Mercado Pago? Create your Mercado Pago account.
Copy your Access Token
in the credentials panel and replace the text YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
with it.
Simple usage
import mercadopago
sdk = mercadopago.SDK("YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN")
payment_data = {
"transaction_amount": 100,
"token": "CARD_TOKEN",
"description": "Payment description",
"payment_method_id": 'visa',
"installments": 1,
"payer": {
"email": '[email protected]'
}
}
result = sdk.payment().create(payment_data)
payment = result["response"]
print(payment)
Per-request configuration
All methods that make API calls accept an optional RequestOptions
object. This can be used to configure some special options of the request, such as changing credentials or custom headers.
import mercadopago
from mercadopago.config import RequestOptions
request_options = RequestOptions(access_token='YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN')
# ...
result = sdk.payment().create(payment_data, request_options)
payment = result["response"]
