Hi everyone! I am trying to add the “Mercado Pago” payment gateway on my app, but for now I could understand only the Stripe API one. I created a “customer” and got a “user id” back from it: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/c/6c2d8d0630b1a33628e4aa9129d3af31e816024b.png) Now, I have to create a “token” for the card that I registered and after that the payment. However, I can’t find the variables (properties) that I need to save in order to create the token. This is what I tried to do (with the card test) in order to generate the token: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/5/b5fbd7d4fb602bc577f41f5e5193f895ba01f70d.png) And this is the returned message/error/status: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/0/1/0149e08b5dfbfe54b06372efb02a755ed677a938.png) Here is the API documentation from Mercado Pago: [Mercado Pago Developers](https://www.mercadopago.com.br/developers/pt/reference) And I think this is what I need to do: [https://www.mercadopago.com.br/developers/pt/guides/online-payments/web-tokenize-checkout/introduction](https://www.mercadopago.com.br/developers/pt/guides/online-payments/web-tokenize-checkout/introduction) Does someone already set up the mercado pago API or can help me? Thank you! ---
