Integration
Renttix + Mercado Pago Integration

The payment method Latin American customers already use.

How it connects
Every call Renttix makes to Mercado Pago is authenticated with your own access token, which means funds settle directly into your Mercado Pago account. There is no platform account in the middle and no intermediate hold on your money.
Payment notifications come back to Renttix as webhooks with their signatures verified before anything is settled. Only confirmed, genuinely-signed events mark a hire invoice as paid, so your receivables ledger reflects money that actually arrived.

Why it matters
Mercado Pago is the default way a great many people and businesses across Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and neighbouring markets expect to pay. Asking those customers to use a payment method built for somewhere else adds friction at precisely the wrong moment, and for recurring hire billing that friction repeats every cycle.
Using your own account also keeps the commercial relationship where it belongs. Your settlement timetable, your fees and your dispute handling are governed by your agreement with Mercado Pago, not by a software vendor sitting in between.
Key workflows
Local payment on hire invoices
Customers settle hire invoices through Mercado Pago using the methods they already use, rather than being pushed onto an unfamiliar international provider.
Direct settlement
Requests are authenticated with your own access token, so payments land in your Mercado Pago account with no intermediary holding the funds.
Signature-verified confirmation
Inbound payment webhooks are signature-checked before an invoice is marked paid, so settlement in Renttix always reflects a confirmed payment.
Mercado Pago covers Latin America among the eight payment providers in Renttix, alongside Stripe, PayPal, Square, Razorpay, Xendit, Alipay+ and Airwallex. Settled payments feed the same invoices, tax treatment and accounting exports as every other provider.

Where do the funds go?
Directly into your own Mercado Pago account. Every request is authenticated with your access token, so Renttix never takes custody of the money or acts as merchant of record.
Are payment notifications trusted automatically?
No. Renttix verifies the signature on inbound Mercado Pago webhooks before marking an invoice paid, so unverified or forged notifications are rejected.
Which countries does this suit?
Mercado Pago is the natural choice for hire businesses operating across Latin America. If you trade in several regions you can run it alongside the other providers Renttix supports rather than choosing one globally.
