Free online store builder powered by the MercadoLibre ecosystem
What is Mercado Shops?
Mercado Shops is a free e-commerce store builder from MercadoLibre, one of Latin America's largest online commerce and payments companies. It lets sellers and brands launch their own branded online store in a few clicks, fully integrated with their MercadoLibre account so listings and stock stay in sync across both channels. Stores come with built-in Mercado Pago payments and financing, Mercado Envíos shipping and fulfillment, and MercadoLibre's purchase-protection program, with no activation or maintenance costs.
How Mercado Shops works with TikTok
Mercado Shops includes a native TikTok integration that lets merchants create and manage TikTok ads directly from their store dashboard. With a one-click setup, sellers link or create a TikTok For Business account, TikTok Ads Manager, and Business Center, install the TikTok Pixel with no code changes, and sync their e-commerce product catalog to TikTok. From there they can launch conversion campaigns and measure ad performance across the buyer journey without managing separate systems.

Pricing
Mercado Shops is free to create and maintain, with no setup or maintenance costs. Sellers instead pay a per-sale commission that varies by country and product category (broadly in the ~12.5%-22.5% range depending on the market), consistent with MercadoLibre's marketplace fees. Advertising spend on TikTok is billed separately through TikTok Ads Manager.
