What is Walmart Plus?
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[1] account and the Walmart app to use it.
What does Walmart Plus include?
Cheaper gas
By signing up for Walmart Plus[2], you get access to reduced gas prices. You can save 5 cents per gallon on fuel at 1,500 Walmart and Murphy stations. Just 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.
Mobile Scan and Go
There's also a Mobile Scan and Go feature in the Walmart app[3] that allows you to check out with your phone as you shop in the store. Open the Walmart app, go to the Menu, select your Account, and tap Mobile Scan and Go. You can then shop and scan items' barcodes to add them to your cart. Once done, approach a self-checkout line, scan the QR code on the register's screen, and checkout on your phone. The card on file with your Walmart account will be charged. You can then show your receipt or "exit pass"
