Payment notifications

When a payment is confirmed via the Mercado Pago webhook, you can forward it to WhatsApp:

import { createWhatsAppWebhookHandler, WhatsAppClient, createPaymentNotifier, createWebhookHandler } from "mercadopago-tool";

const wa = new WhatsAppClient({
  accessToken: process.env.WHATSAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN!,
  phoneNumberId: process.env.WHATSAPP_PHONE_NUMBER_ID!,
});

// Notify merchant on WhatsApp when payment is approved
const notifier = createPaymentNotifier(wa, "5491155551234");

const mpWebhook = createWebhookHandler({
  accessToken: process.env.MERCADO_PAGO_ACCESS_TOKEN!,
  onPayment: notifier,
});

Programmatic usage

import { WhatsAppClient } from "mercadopago-tool";

const wa = new WhatsAppClient({
  accessToken: process.env.WHATSAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN!,
  phoneNumberId: process.env.WHATSAPP_PHONE_NUMBER_ID!,
