Mercado Libre: Compras online

A broad marketplace for everyday shopping

Mercado Libre: Compras online is a marketplace app for buying new and used products from brands, retailers and individual sellers. Its catalogue covers common household goods as well as electronics, clothing, appliances and other categories. It suits shoppers who want a large selection in one place, with search tools that help narrow results by price, location and delivery options.

Buying and selling in one app

The app supports both sides of a transaction. Buyers can compare listings, check seller ratings, ask questions through built-in messaging and place orders. Sellers can publish products and manage conversations with potential customers. The review system and purchase protection features provide useful context when deciding between similar listings, especially from less familiar sellers.

Payments and delivery are part of the service

Mercado Libre connects shopping with its wider payment and logistics services. Mercado Pago handles checkout, while available payment plans can make more expensive purchases easier to spread out. Delivery choices vary by product and location, with the Envío Full service offering faster fulfilment on selected items and, in some areas, delivery within 24 hours. The exact options are shown during the purchase process.

Scale and overall fit

This is a particularly useful choice for people who shop regularly through Mercado Libre’s regional marketplace, or who want access to both official stores and second-hand listings. The app also includes Mercado Play, adding free films and series alongside shopping and payments, although that wider scope can make the home screen feel busy. With a 4.81 rating from more than 23.6 million reviews and 100,000,000+ installs, it is one of the most established shopping apps in its category. It is developed by Mercado Libre.
