Think of it as your personal shopping co-pilot. You can browse deals, make lists, and most importantly, access the power of Walmart Pay.
Step 2: Befriend the Wallet Section (because that's where the money lives)
This is where you link your credit card, debit card, or even your Walmart gift card (because who doesn't love a good gift card?). Just follow the app's easy instructions, and soon your phone will be brimming with virtual payment power.
Step 3: Checkout Nirvana (cue the angelic music)
You've scanned your items, your heart rate is normal (a rarity during checkout lines), and now comes the moment of truth. Here's where your phone's inner Jedi shines:
- Option 1: Become a QR Code Whisperer - Open the Walmart Pay section of the app and hold your phone's camera over the magical QR code at the register. Voila! Your phone and the register exchange secret handshakes (well, encrypted signals) and your payment is complete.
