First time using Mercado Pago? Create your Mercado Pago account.

Copy your Access Token in the credentials panel and replace the text YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with it.

To generate a card token read the Checkout API documentation.

require 'mercadopago'

sdk = Mercadopago::SDK.new('YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN')

custom_headers = {
 'x-idempotency-key': '<SOME_UNIQUE_VALUE>'
}

custom_request_options = Mercadopago::RequestOptions.new(custom_headers: custom_headers)

payment_data = {
  transaction_amount: 100,
  token: 'CARD_TOKEN',
  description: 'Payment description',
  payment_method_id: 'visa',
  installments: 1,
  payer: {
    email: 'test_user_123456@testuser.com'
  }
}
result = sdk.payment.create(payment_data, custom_request_options)
payment = result[:response]

puts payment

All methods that make API calls accept an optional RequestOptions object. This can be used to configure some special options of the request, such as changing credentials or custom headers.

require 'mercadopago'

request_options = Mercadopago::RequestOptions.new(access_token: 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN')
# ...

result = sdk.payment.create(payment_data, request_options: request_options)
payment = result[:response]
