Connecting your Mercadolibre store to CJdropshipping lets you list products and automate order fulfillment directly through CJ.

Related Questions

QI don't see Mercado under Apps — how do I enable it?
Go to Apps → Install App to open the App Store, find Mercado under *Cross-Border E-commerce Platform*, and click Install. Once installed, Mercado appears in the left Apps menu and you can add your store.
QWhich Mercadolibre store types can be authorized to CJ?
Only Cross-Border Store accounts in self-delivery mode are supported. Stores in Full (Mercado Envíos Full) warehouse mode are automatically filtered out after authorization. CJ shows this in the Authorization Notice dialog before you proceed.
QWhat is 'Full mode' and why might my store be filtered out?
Full is Mercadolibre's fulfillment mode (Mercado Envíos Full) where Mercadolibre stores and ships your stock. CJ connects only self-delivery cross-border stores, so Full-mode stores are filtered automatically after authorization. Use a self-delivery store, or contact CJ support.
QI have multiple stores under one account — why are some not displayed in CJ after successful authorization?
Check whether those stores are in Full mode. Full-mode stores are not currently supported and are filtered out during authorization, so only your self-delivery cross-border stores will appear in CJ.
QHow do I check my Mercadolibre account/store, and does my region (MX/AR/BR) matter?
When redirected to Mercadolibre, log in to your seller account and check Summary — it shows your Country (e.g. Mexico). Mercadolibre runs multiple Latin American sites (MLM Mexico, MLA Argentina, MLB Brazil, etc.); authorize with the account that owns the store on its site. Confirm it is a self-delivery cross-border store before connecting.
QDuring authorization, Mercadolibre shows "Do you need help with your account?" — how do I resolve it?
This usually means you are signing in with a Mercadolibre sub-account. Sign in with the Mercadolibre main (owner) account instead to complete the authorization.
QAuthorization keeps prompting for my username and email and I can't log in — what's wrong?
Check the address bar during login. If it shows global-selling.mercadolibre.com, your account is a local store (registered with a local company account), which is not supported for authorization. Authorize with a cross-border store account instead.
QHow do I confirm the authorization worked, and what can I do next?
After clicking Authorize you'll see an Authorization Success! page, then your store appears in Apps → Mercado with Token Verification: Authorized and Store Status: Activated. You can then list CJ products to Mercadolibre and sync orders. If the store does not appear, re-check the store type (Full-mode stores are filtered).
