Now the big box retailer is offering another incentive to its Walmart+ members – digital rewards shoppers can use toward future purchases.
Here’s how it works:
First, become a Walmart+ member. The subscription costs $12.95 monthly or you can save by paying $98 upfront for one year.
Next, download the Walmart app, because that’s where you can access this cashback rewards program, which is part of a partnership between Walmart and the Ibotta cashback rewards platform, according to TechCrunch.com.
More From Your Money: Choose a high-interest saving, checking, CD, or investing account from our list of top banks to start saving today.
Then, shop as you normally would in the Walmart app as a Walmart+ member. When you purchase an item eligible for cashback, simply “clip” the offer like you would any digital coupon. After you make your purchase, you’ll earn Walmart Rewards that are saved in the app and can be applied to future purchases for greater savings.
Walmart is already one of the brands that offers cash back through the Ibotta app. This new program allows Walmart+ members to accrue even more rewards, without downloading the Ibotta app.
The Walmart+ program also stands out because users don’t need to apply for a cashback credit card to earn the rewards. (Although you can multiply your rewards by paying for purchases with a top cashback rewards credit card.)
