Update: Myself and many readers are experiencing an issue with the Walmart system charging the wrong card for the membership fee. I think that if you set your Amex card as the default payment method and delete all other payment methods that would work fine.

Our Verdict
Reader Chris sent this one in, and I’m seeing this as well. I believe this is a public offer for everyone who does not currently have Walmart+.
A lot of us get it free with the Amex Platinum card, but for the others this deal could be interesting when stacked with the $40 back on an Amex Offer which we wrote about here.
For a while now I’ve been waiting for a good Walmart+ stack. I enjoy the Walmart+ benefits, but let my membership expire when my membership lapsed some months ago. This stack here is excellent and I’ll definitely be renewing my Walmart+ membership. I value Walmart Cash almost as good as cash, and so it ends up being like paying $8 (plus taxes) for a full year of Walmart+.
I did get the AmEx Offer on one of my cards. Hopefully others will be able to take advantage of this stack as well. (Walmart+ is excluded from all portals that I checked, so there’s no additional stack there.)
Update: Myself and many readers are experiencing an issue with the Walmart system charging the wrong card for the membership fee. I think that if you set your Amex card as the default payment method (maybe also delete your previous default card) that would work, but I’m not certain.

My W+ expires in May. I want to renew but not paying $98.
I signed up with a new Walmart account since I kept getting an error message. $50 instantly deposited. My account also had an offer for another $15 Walmart cash for downloading the app, placing one order, and linking Paramount (free with membership).
I got the offer on my account by just signing in.
Went to my Wallet, removed/deleted CCs and logged off. Double checked that Walmart+ Amex Offer is saved on CC.
Logged back into Walmart about an hour later, added my Amex CC to wallet, scrolled down a bit and selected the yellow box with "Join Walmart+ For $98 & Get $50". Proceeded and done.
Immediately received "Welcome to your Walmart+" email and $50 Walmart Cash instantly added to Wallet.
Received email from Amex 10 mins. later, "Great news, You recently used your Amex Offer at Walmart".
Thanks perfectly timed! I used this immediately for tire installation.
Joined today. Removed two of 3 credit cards and a gift card from my Walmart account, leaving the Amex (BCE), went to the Walmart+ offer, Amex automatically showed up as payment method, completed the signup, $50 Walmart cash shows up instantly and received email from Amex detailing the offer has been used at the same time. Totaled to $105.23 in Minnesota, total cost minus $40 Amex credit and $50 Walmart cash brings it to $15.23, not sure if this counts as an online purchase for 3% back on the BCE.
Joined yesterday, got $50 Walmart cash and will be getting $40 Amex Rewards. Just got an Amex business Gold, and they provide me a free year Walmart+ membership. Not sure whether I can gift one membership to a friend, or cancel one.
Cancel doesn't seem to work as Doctor mentioned earlier -- $48 total refund only.
I wanted to get the Walmart Plus membership as a gift for someone (and purchase one-year gift card), but it kept trying to sign up for charges to my credit card (and I didn't want it to default to that for someone else). I ended up missing out on the Amex offer to get the gift card, I think because the gift card wasn't considered Walmart online or something.
Can we cancel Walmart plus after using the 50
If if they agree to refund you, they'll give the refund minus $50 ($48 total refund)
So weird - never got it to work today. I set AMEX to default, tried three different times, kept getting same error message...oddly my AMEX shows the three pending charges (with tax added btw) and three pending refunds. Seeing AC each time on the signup page didnt help either haha
What a nightmare. I had an old expired credit card on file in my Walmart account and they still managed to charge it despite the checkout page showing no credit card.
Had to chat with them to get the charges reversed.
Recommend deleting any credit cards in your account before going for this deal to get it right.
