Walmart is expanding its payment options to include tap-to-pay services, starting August 24. The new system will allow customers to use Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Wallet, among others. According to AppleInsider, Walmart had previously resisted offering these services, instead promoting its own Walmart Pay.
The rollout will be completed in Walmart and Sam's Club stores by the end of 2026, with gas stations to follow in 2027. This move comes after years of pressure from shoppers to accept Apple Pay, which was first reported by 9to5Mac.
Walmart quietly announced the news in a press release, choosing not to specifically mention the services that will be supported.
