Alojando / Mercado Pago
Payments with Mercado PagoCollect your direct bookings with Mercado Pago.
Your booking website collects with your Mercado Pago account. The guest pays in pesos, the money goes straight to you and the booking is recorded with its payment.
How it works
- You connect your Mercado Pago account from the panel.
- The guest picks the dates on your website and pays with Mercado Pago, in pesos, at the exchange rate of the day.
- The money goes into your account, not into Alojando’s.
- The payment is recorded on the booking.
No Alojando commission
Alojando charges a per-property subscription. It keeps nothing of what you collect with Mercado Pago: Mercado Pago charges you its own fee, as on any sale.
Guests from abroad
For guests paying from another country, the same website collects with Stripe, in US dollars or euros.
The subscription can be paid with Mercado Pago too
The Alojando subscription can be paid in Argentine pesos through Mercado Pago, at the equivalent of the dollar price at the exchange rate of the day.
