Mercado Pago serves Latin America; our Virginia region is the closest probe we operate to that market, so it is the only one we check from.

These are Mercado Pago's components, named and scored by Mercado Pago. We do not map them onto the functions we check above, because we have no way to know which of their components our checks touch. Two lists, side by side, neither one rewriting the other.

This is Mercado Pago's own claim about their service, shown separately from what we measured. We never change our own numbers based on what a vendor reports, and this reading never changes theirs. Read both.

Check your own site while you wait on Mercado Pago

Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Mercado Pago. It cannot diagnose Mercado Pago's own systems.

Email me when Mercado Pago reports an incident on its status page, and again when it reports it resolved.

Delivery channel

Double opt-in: nothing is sent until you click the link in the confirmation email. One email when it reports an incident, one when it reports it resolved, and a one-click unsubscribe in every one. We do not send anything else to this address.

This is Mercado Pago's own statement from its status page, with our regional reading beside it.

What are you seeing? (optional)

No account needed, and we never store your IP address. Reports are counted separately from our own measurements and are always shown as unverified.

These are unverified reports from people using Mercado Pago, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We have not received any reports for Mercado Pago yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.

check entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works

We have been measuring Mercado Pago since August 20, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

The badge shows the share of our checks that passed over the last 30 days. The window is printed on it, so the number always says what period it covers. If our readings go stale it says stale, and if we have no readings it says so and shows no color. Free, no account, and it links back here. See how the badge works for every window and the honesty rules behind it.

Checking a site of your own? The free website down checker sends it one request and reports the answer, and the SLA calculator shows how much downtime an uptime figure allows.

What our check can and cannot see

A pass means the service's servers answered with the sign-in refusal they give any request that is not signed in. It does not show that sign-in works or that anything behind the sign-in wall responds.

Host checked: api.mercadopago.com

RealUptime is not affiliated with Mercado Pago; the name identifies what we checked, and nothing here speaks for Mercado Pago's own team. We send a single web request to Mercado Pago from 1 region on our own schedule and time the response. We do not see inside Mercado Pago's systems, do not use an account or real transaction, and are not the same signal Mercado Pago's own team has access to. Treat this as one external data point, not a verdict. At least one endpoint we check for Mercado Pago is a real functional API call (marked “functional” above), not just a landing page, so a passing check there says an API answered, though it still does not show that every feature of the service works for you. Mercado Pago serves Latin America; our Virginia region is the closest probe we operate to that market, so it is the only one we check from. Read the full methodology.
