Webhooks
Webhooks (also known as web callbacks) are a simple method that allows an application or system to provide real-time information whenever an event occurs. It's a passive way of receiving data between two systems via an HTTP POST
request.
Webhooks notifications can be configured for each application created in Your integrations. You can also configure a test URL that, along with your test credentials, allows you to test the correct operation of your notifications before going live.
Once configured, the Webhook will be sent whenever one or more registered events occur, eliminating the need for constant checks and thus preventing system overload and data loss in critical situations.
To configure your Webhooks notifications, choose one of the options below:
Configuration type | Description |
Configuration through Your integrations | Allows configuring notifications for each one of your applications, identifying different accounts if necessary, and validating the notification origin using the secret signature . |
Configuration during payment creation | Allows specific configuration of notifications for each payment, preference or order This configuration is not allowed for Mercado Pago Point. |
Once notifications are configured, refer to the necessary actions after receiving a notification to validate that the notifications were properly received.
Configuration through Your integrations
Set up notifications for each application directly in Your integrations efficiently and securely. In this documentation, we will explain how:
- Specify URLs and configure events
- Validate the notification source
- Simulate receiving the notification
1. Specify URLs and configure events
To configure Webhooks notifications via Your integrations, it is necessary to specify the URLs where they will be received and the events for which you wish to receive notifications.
To do this, follow these steps:
- Access Your integrations and select the application for which you want to enable notifications. If you haven't created an application yet, access the Developer Dashboard documentation and follow the instructions to do so.
- In the left menu, click on Webhooks > Configure notifications and configure the URLs that will be used to receive notifications. We recommend using different URLs for testing mode and production mode:
- Test mode URL: provide a URL that allows testing the correct operation of notifications for this application during the testing or development phase. Testing these notifications should be done exclusively with the test credentials of productive users.
- Production mode URL: provide a URL to receive notifications with your productive integration. These notifications should be configured with productive credentials.
Select the events from which you want to receive notifications in
JSON
format via anHTTP POST
to the URL specified earlier. An event can be any type of update on the reported object, including status changes or attributes. Refer to the table below to see the events that can be configured, considering the integrated Mercado Pago solution and its business specifics.

- Finally, click on Save. This will generate a unique secret signature for your application, allowing you to validate the authenticity of received notifications, ensuring they were sent by Mercado Pago. Note that the generated signature does not have an expiration date, and its periodic renewal is not mandatory but highly recommended. Simply click the Reset button next to the signature to renew it.
2. Validate notification origin
Notifications sent by Mercado Pago will be similar to the following example for a payment
topic alert:
json
{
"id": 12345,
"live_mode": true,
"type": "payment",
"date_created": "2015-03-25T10:04:58.396-04:00",
"user_id": 44444,
"api_version": "v1",
"action": "payment.created",
"data": {
"id": "999999999"
}
}
Mercado Pago will always include the secret signature in the Webhooks notifications received at the registered URL, which will allow you to validate their authenticity to provide greater security and prevent potential fraud.
This signature will be sent in the x-signature
header, as shown in the example below.
x-signature
`ts=1704908010,v1=618c85345248dd820d5fd456117c2ab2ef8eda45a0282ff693eac24131a5e839`
To configure this validation, you need to extract the key contained in the header and compare it with the key provided for your application in Your integrations. You can do this by following the steps below. At the end, we provide some SDKs with a complete code example to facilitate the process:
- To extract the timestamp (
ts
) and the signature from thex-signature
header, split the content of the header by the "," character, which will result in a list of 2 elements. The value for thets
prefix is the timestamp (in milliseconds) of the notification, andv1
is the encrypted signature. Following the example presented above,ts=1704908010
andv1=618c85345248dd820d5fd456117c2ab2ef8eda45a0282ff693eac24131a5e839
. - Using the template and descriptions below, replace the parameters with the data received in your notification.
template
id:[data.id_url];request-id:[x-request-id_header];ts:[ts_header];
- Parameters with the
_url
suffix come from query params. Example: [data.id_url] will be replaced by the corresponding event ID value (data.id
). This query param can be found in the received notification. [ts_header]
will represent thets
value extracted from thex-signature
header.[x-request-id_header]
should be replaced with the value received in thex-request-id
header.
- In the Your integrations, select the integrated application and navigate to the Webhooks section to reveal the generated secret signature.
- Generate the validation key. To do this, calculate an HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) using the
SHA256 hash
function in hexadecimal base. Use the secret signature as the key and the template filled with the respective values as the message.
$cyphedSignature = hash_hmac('sha256', $data, $key);
const crypto = require('crypto');
const cyphedSignature = crypto
.createHmac('sha256', secret)
.update(signatureTemplateParsed)
.digest('hex');
String cyphedSignature = new HmacUtils("HmacSHA256", secret).hmacHex(signedTemplate);
import hashlib, hmac, binascii
cyphedSignature = binascii.hexlify(hmac_sha256(secret.encode(), signedTemplate.encode()))
- Finally, compare the generated key with the key extracted from the header, ensuring they match exactly. Additionally, you can use the timestamp extracted from the header to compare it with a timestamp generated at the time of receiving the notification. This allows establishing a tolerance margin for delays in receiving the message.
See examples of complete code below:
<?php
// Obtain the x-signature value from the header
$xSignature = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_SIGNATURE'];
$xRequestId = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUEST_ID'];

3. Simulate receiving the notification
Simulating receiving notifications is necessary to verify if they are configured correctly. To do so, follow these steps:
- After configuring the URLs and desired events, click Save to save the configuration.
- Afterward, click Simulate to test if the specified URL is receiving notifications correctly.
- On the simulation screen, select the URL to be tested, which can be a test or production URL.
- Next, select the desired event type and enter the identification that will be sent in the body of the notification.
- Finally, click Send test to verify the request, the server response, and the event description.
Configuration during payment creation
During the creation process of a payment, preference or order, it's possible to configure the notification URL more specifically for each payment using the notification_url
field and implementing the necessary notification receiver.
Next, we explain how to do this with the help of the SDKs.
- In the
notification_url
field, specify the URL where notifications will be received, as shown in the example below. To receive notifications exclusively via Webhooks and not via IPN, you can add the parametersource_news=webhooks
to thenotification_url
. For example:https://www.yourserver.com/notifications?source_news=webhooks
.
<?php
$client = new PaymentClient();
$body = [
'transaction_amount' => 100,
'token' => 'token',
'description' => 'description',

)
];
$client->create(body);
?>

- Implement the notification receiver using the following code as an example:
php
<?php
MercadoPago\SDK::setAccessToken("ENV_ACCESS_TOKEN");
switch($_POST["type"]) {
case "payment":
$payment = MercadoPago\Payment::find_by_id($_POST["data"]["id"]);
break;
case "plan":
$plan = MercadoPago\Plan::find_by_id($_POST["data"]["id"]);
break;
case "subscription":
$plan = MercadoPago\Subscription::find_by_id($_POST["data"]["id"]);
break;
case "invoice":
$plan = MercadoPago\Invoice::find_by_id($_POST["data"]["id"]);
break;
case "point_integration_wh":
// $_POST contiene la informaciòn relacionada a la notificaciòn.
break;
}
?>
After making the necessary configurations, the Webhooks notification will be delivered in JSON
format. See the example of a notification for the payments
topic and the descriptions of the information sent in the table below.
json
{
"id": 12345,
"live_mode": true,
"type": "payment",
"date_created": "2015-03-25T10:04:58.396-04:00",

Necessary actions after receiving a notification
When you receive a notification on your platform, Mercado Pago expects a response to validate that you received it correctly. To do this, you need to return an HTTP STATUS 200 (OK)
or 201 (CREATED)
status.
The waiting time for confirmation of receipt of notifications is 22 seconds. If this confirmation is not sent, the system will understand that the notification was not received and will retry sending every 15 minutes until a response is received. After the third attempt, the interval will be extended, but the attempts will continue.
After responding to the notification and confirming its receipt, you can obtain the complete information of the notified resource by making a request to the corresponding API endpoint. To identify which endpoint to use, check the table below:
Tipo | URL | Documentação |
payment | https://api.mercadopago.com/v1/payments/[ID] | Get payment |
subscription_preapproval | https://api.mercadopago.com/preapproval/search | Search subscriptions |
subscription_preapproval_plan | https://api.mercadopago.com/preapproval_plan/search | Search subscription plans |
subscription_authorized_payment | https://api.mercadopago.com/authorized_payments/[ID] | Get invoices data |
point_integration_wh | https://api.mercadopago.com/point/integration-api/payment-intents/{paymentintentid} | Search payment intent |
topic_claims_integration_wh | https://api.mercadopago.com/post-purchase/v1/claims/[claim_id] | Get claim details |
topic_merchant_order_wh | https://api.mercadopago.com/merchant_orders/[ID] | Get order |
topic_chargebacks_wh | https://api.mercadopago.com/v1/chargebacks/[ID] | Get chargeback |
With this information, you will be able to make the necessary updates to your platform, such as updating an approved payment.
Notifications dashboard
The notification dashboard allows the user to view the events triggered on a specific integration, check the status, and obtain detailed information about these events.
This dashboard will be displayed once you configure your Webhooks notifications, and you can access it anytime by clicking on Webhooks within the Your integrations.
Among the available information, you will find the percentage of notifications delivered, as well as a quick view of which URLs and events are configured.
Additionally, you will find a complete list of the latest notifications sent and their details, such as delivery status (success or failure), action (action associated with the triggered event), event (type of triggered event), and date and time. If desired, you can filter these displayed results by delivery status and by period (date and time).
Evet details
When you click on one of the listed notifications, you can access the event details. This section provides additional information, allowing you to retrieve lost data in case of notification delivery failure, thereby keeping your system up to date.
- Status: Event status along with the corresponding success or error code.
- Event: Type of event triggered as selected in the notification configuration.
- Type: Topic to which the triggered event belongs as selected during configuration.
- Trigger date and time: Date and time when the event was triggered.
- Description: Detailed description of the event as documented.
- Trigger ID: Unique identifier of the sent notification.
- Request: JSON of the request corresponding to the triggered notification.
In case of notification delivery failure, you can view the reasons and correct the necessary information to prevent future issues.
