Safe and secure payments
The payments are safe and secure. MercadoPago integrates with Latin American banks unlike PayPal or Stripe. The digital account is very easy to use, the icons are simple and quick, the payment link is practical and the price is affordable.

MercadoPago was easier to use and the mobile app is better than alternatives. As a platform it has made the e-payment system as simple as it should be, and it's awesome that it has developed this way. I really like the app, it's easy and has several products and services.
