Walmart is taking a page from Amazon’s playbook, by starting to roll out its own bundle of benefits to subscribers. Called Walmart Plus, it’s not as robust as Amazon Prime, at least not at launch, but it still has a few decent perks and plenty of room to go.
For those of you deciding which is worth subscribing to, here’s everything you need to know about Walmart Plus, including how it compares to Amazon Prime. You can watch our video breakdown above, or you can read below to learn more about how Walmart Plus stacks up against Amazon Prime. Walmart Plus is Walmart’s new membership program that, once you subscribe to it, gives you access to unique benefits. You need a Walmart.com account and the Walmart app to use it. By signing up for Walmart Plus, you get access to reduced gas prices. You can save 5 cents per gallon on fuel at more than 2,000 Walmart, Murphy USA, and Murphy Express fuel stations. Walmart Plus is even expanding to its member’s access to Sam’s Club member pricing at more than 500 Sam’s Club locations. To enjoy your fuel discount, open the Walmart app, go to Menu and then your Account, and tap Member Prices on Fuel to get started. Walmart will show you the nearest locations. When you arrive at a Murphy station, enter your discount ID from the app at the pump. At Walmart stations, scan the pump’s QR code with your camera. Then fill up. There’s also a Mobile Scan and Go feature in the Walmart app that allows you to check out with your phone as you shop in the store.
