The system has some similarities with Target’s discount program, Target Circle, which presents various offers and digital gift cards to loyal customers who shop for specific products that can be redeemed at checkout. Those rewards can accumulate over time, allowing customers to apply their balance to a future Walmart purchase for further savings.
After buying a rewarded item, Walmart+ members will earn cash back in the form of digital “Walmart Rewards” that are saved to their Walmart Wallet in the app. They can then “clip” these offers like digital coupons to be used on upcoming purchases. Walmart+ subscribers will be able to browse the Walmart app for offers across a range of bestselling items, including groceries, household goods, pet care, and other categories. On Wednesday, the Walmart+ subscription will gain a new cash back in the form of digital rewards that can be used on future Walmart purchases, the retailer told TechCrunch. Either that, or I can just continue shopping on Amazon and having items magically show up on my porch two days later.Walmart is introducing another perk designed to sweeten the deal for its Walmart+ membership program - the retailer’s answer to Amazon Prime, which today offers a combination of free shipping, fuel discounts, contact-free checkout, exclusive deals, free streaming, and more. I look forward to other retail chains that aren’t awful (I’m looking at you Target) adopting similar technologies to modernize my shopping experience and welcome the high-tech future of retail. I do have to admit, though, that Scan & Go is pretty cool. I will still gladly drive farther and pay more just so I don’t have to step foot in a Walmart or give the company any of my money. Walmart says that it is working on expanding to other stores, so keep your eyes open and maybe it will be available soon at a Walmart near you. One in Arkansas, one in Florida, and the one near my home here in the Houston area. The new and improved Walmart Scan & Go experience is currently available at only three of the Walmart stores. Walmart will also perform a more thorough check if you try to purchase any alcohol or age-restricted items like spray paint using the Scan & Go process. Basically, the implication was that if someone looks “shady” they’re more likely to be singled out for a more thorough inspection. A Walmart employee explained that they conduct random periodic checks of customers to keep people honest, and suggested that there may be some customer profiling going on as well.
