Walmart+ Offers Half-Price Memberships for Government Assistance Recipients

Walmart has launched Walmart+ Assist, a program that offers customers on government assistance a 50% discount on monthly or annual Walmart+ paid membership plans. The program aims to make the benefits of Walmart+ more accessible to those who need it most, providing savings on free shipping, grocery delivery, gas discounts, and video streaming. Existing members who qualify and sign up will receive a prorated refund, and the new price will start immediately. Walmart has previously supported customers using government assistance through initiatives like accepting SNAP benefits online, and Walmart+ Assist is another step forward in helping those in need access the benefits of their membership.
