Huge change for Walmart shoppers across Canada

There is a big change for Walmart shoppers in Canada.

A new membership program called Walmart+ has launched, marking the first time it’s available outside of the United States.

Walmart said the program “goes beyond delivery for Canadians, bringing together unlimited same-day delivery from store, free shipping with no order minimum from Walmart.ca and a subscription to Crave.”

It costs $8.97 per month or $89 annually.

The company said Walmart+ offers more than its Delivery Pass program, which launched for $89 in 2023. Those with a Delivery Pass membership will automatically become Walmart+ members.

“With Walmart+, Canadians can access a unique membership offering that combines unlimited grocery and general merchandise delivery with benefits beyond retail – all for only $89 per year,” said Catherine Theberge-Conner, the head of membership at Walmart Canada.

“Canadians are going to love the level of convenience, assortment and value they get with Walmart+, with more to come.”

Walmart+ members get unlimited free same-day delivery on orders from stores over $35, with items priced the same as in-store. They save on express delivery, which arrives in two hours or less.

The program also provides free shipping with no order minimums from Walmart.ca and the Walmart app.

And it comes with a subscription to Crave standard with ads.

New customers can try a 30-day trial of Walmart+.

There are more than 400 Walmart stores in Canada.
