PEO Name Mr. Galperin        
Additional 402(v) Disclosure The Company decided to reclassify and present certain financial results related to Mercado Pago’s activities from “Other income (expenses)” to “Net services revenues and financial income” and “Cost of net revenues and financial expenses” in the Statement of Income. Therefore, 2023 and 2022 balances have been recast for consistency with the 2024 presentation. For further information, please refer to Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies - Change in the presentation of certain financial results and reclassification of prior years results, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.        
Measure:: 1          
Pay vs Performance Disclosure          
Name 60-day average TSR        
Non-GAAP Measure Description For 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, the most important metric in determining compensation actually paid to our named executive officers was our 60-day average TSR, as the amounts of the variable payments made under our LTRPs fluctuate based on the quotient of the average closing price of our common stock on the NASDAQ during the final 60 trading days of the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the applicable payment date occurs over the average closing price of our common stock on the NASDAQ during the final 60 trading days of the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the applicable LTRP award was granted. Because the majority of our named executive officers’ compensation is paid through our LTRPs, our executives’ compensation actually paid is closely aligned with the returns of our stockholders. However, because TSR is already reported in the table, we have identified our Company-selected measure as income from operations.        
Measure:: 2

Non-GAAP Measure Description The Company-selected measure is Income from operations. For each applicable year, Income from operations is defined as our income from operations for that year. This metric is measured in constant dollars. For information on how we compute this non-GAAP financial measure and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP, please refer to “Appendix: Reconciliation of Non- GAAP Financial Measure” in this proxy statement.
