Attention, Walmart shoppers! The giant retailer is launching a new membership program that brings together in-store and online benefits to save customers money and time: Walmart+. The program uses the company’s wide-ranging assets to make life easier for busy families. Along with the power of its online presence, Walmart+ has the reach of more than 4,700 stores, including 2,700 stores that offer same-day delivery.
Membership will be available to all customers, starting Tuesday, September 15.
It will cost $98 a year or $12.95 a month and includes a 15-day FREE trial period.
In the future, the company will leverage its wide-ranging strengths to add additional benefits for members in a variety of services and offerings. The list of benefits will continue to grow over time.
Here’s the initial list of Walmart+ benefits:
Unlimited FREE Delivery
In-store prices as fast as same-day on more than 160,000 items from tech and toys to household essentials and groceries.
This service was previously known as Delivery Unlimited – a subscription service that allows customers to place an unlimited number of deliveries for a low, flat fee. (Current subscribers will automatically become Walmart+ members.)
Scan & Go
Unlock Scan & Go in the Walmart app – a fast way to shop in-store.
Using the Walmart app, customers can scan their items as they shop and pay using Walmart Pay for a quick, easy, touch-free payment experience.

These benefits come in addition to the retailer’s existing customer offerings, including FREE curbside pickup, Next Day delivery and two-day delivery.
Walmart will continue to have delivery options with a per-delivery transaction fee, so customers can choose the service that’s best for them.
