With a new pair of slippers in hand, I decided to see if the self-checkout register would allow me to print a receipt. With a growing line behind me and no managers around, I settled for a cash refund. I also was disappointed when the return couldn't be processed with that card. I was surprised when the customer service associate asked me for the credit card attached to my Walmart Pay account. I went to customer service with the eReceipt open on the app and the return. The next day when I went to another Walmart to return a pair of slippers my dad didn't like, I thought the eReceipt would make the return process easier. Unfortunately, my cashier didn't know how to do this, but a manager quickly resolved the issue.

Most apps, including ibotta and SavingStar, require you to submit a picture of your receipt and an eReceipt wouldn't work for that.Īccording to Walmart Pay's frequently asked questions, if you need a receipt you can ask a cashier to 'utilize the reprint receipt function at the register.' It's a fast process and I had to scan the QR code near the register to finalize the process.Ī highlighted feature of Walmart Pay is that eReceipts are automatically generated.Īlthough I wanted the eReceipt, I also needed a physical receipt so I could earn cash back with one of my favorite rebate apps. Besides being logged in and having a valid credit card linked to your account, you also need to set up the feature on the app.

Make sure to complete the Walmart Pay sign up process before you get in the checkout line. Yet I quickly learned that Walmart Pay isn't perfect.

My phone always is nearby and as long as I have enough battery power, I'd rather pay with my phone than dig for a card. The Walmart app works with Apple and Android devices with credit, debit, pre-paid or Walmart gift cards.Īs someone who suffers from messy purse syndrome, I was excited to test Walmart Pay last weekend. Instead of paying with paper or plastic, you can pay for in-store purchases with your smartphone and the Walmart mobile app. The nation's largest retailer has rolled out Walmart Pay, a new way to pay at its 4,600-plus stores. Long lines at Walmart could one day be a thing of the past.
