Walmart+ Free Shipping with No Minimum + Member Benefits (2026)

If you shop Walmart regularly—or like getting first dibs on some of Walmart’s biggest sale prices—a Walmart+ membership can offer quite a bit more than free shipping.

Members get free shipping with no order minimum on eligible Walmart.com orders, free store delivery on qualifying $35+ orders, fuel savings, streaming, pharmacy delivery, early access to select Walmart sales like the Fall Sale coming up in October and Black Friday deals, and several newer perks.

Below, we’re breaking down what Walmart+ includes in 2026, what qualifies for free shipping, and some of the benefits you may not realize come with your membership.

How Walmart+ Free Shipping Works

One of the easiest Walmart+ benefits to use is free shipping with no order minimum. That means you don’t need to build a $35 cart just to avoid a shipping charge.

1. Shop eligible items on Walmart.com or in the Walmart app. Look for the Walmart+ free shipping designation on the item.
2. Add your items and check out. Eligible Walmart+ shipping fees are waived even if your order is under $35.
3. Need groceries or household essentials today? That’s a separate Walmart+ benefit called Free Delivery from Your Store. Members receive free standard delivery on qualifying $35+ store-delivery orders.

Important: Free shipping and free delivery from your local Walmart store are two different benefits. The no-order-minimum benefit applies to eligible shipped orders. Local store delivery generally requires a $35 minimum to avoid the small-order fee.

Walmart+ Members Get Early Access to Some Sales

This is one of our favorite Walmart+ benefits for deal shoppers: paid Walmart+ members can get early access to select online deals before everyone else.

Walmart uses Early Access during major shopping events throughout the year, including Black Friday and other Walmart Deals events. Depending on the sale, members may be able to shop select high-demand deals before they’re opened to all Walmart shoppers.

That can make a real difference when Walmart has a limited quantity of a popular item or a particularly good holiday price.

• Early Access is typically for paid Walmart+ members.
• Deals are online only unless Walmart states otherwise for a particular event.
• Quantities can be limited, so early access doesn’t guarantee an item will remain in stock.
• Walmart recommends watching your email and Walmart account for announcements about upcoming member Early Access events.

Deal tip: If you’re considering Walmart+ before Black Friday, holiday shopping, or another major Walmart sale, the Early Access benefit may be one of the most valuable reasons to have your membership active before the event begins.

What Qualifies for Walmart+ Free Shipping?

• Included: Eligible items sold by Walmart or shipped by Walmart through Walmart.com or the Walmart app.
• Some Marketplace items may also qualify: Walmart now allows certain items from select Marketplace sellers to qualify. Look for the Walmart+ Free Shipping badge rather than assuming every Marketplace item is excluded.
• May not qualify: Some Marketplace purchases, freight or oversized items, specialty shipments, international shipments, and other items subject to shipping restrictions or surcharges.

Tip: The easiest way to know whether an item qualifies is to check the product page and your cart for the Walmart+ free-shipping designation before you check out.

What Does Walmart+ Include in 2026?

Walmart+ has added quite a few benefits over the years. Here are the biggest perks currently included with the membership.

1. Free Shipping with No Order Minimum

Get free shipping on eligible Walmart.com purchases without needing to spend $35 first. This is especially useful when you only need one or two inexpensive items.

2. Early Access to Select Walmart Deals

Paid Walmart+ members can get early online access to select deals during Black Friday and other Walmart sale events. Offers and access periods vary by event and are available while supplies last.

3. Free Delivery from Your Local Walmart Store

Members avoid the standard delivery fee on eligible $35+ orders delivered from their local Walmart store.

This includes many of the things you’d normally shop for in person—groceries, household products, personal care products, pet supplies and more.

If your order is below $35, a minimum-order fee may apply.

4. Paramount+ or Peacock Included

Walmart+ members can choose one of two ad-supported streaming plans at no additional cost:

• Paramount+ Essential
• Peacock Premium

You can have one streaming benefit active at a time and can change your selection after 90 days.

5. Walmart+ Fuel Savings

Members can save up to 10¢ per gallon at participating Walmart, Murphy, Exxon, Mobil and eligible CITGO locations.

Members can also access Sam’s Club member fuel pricing at participating Sam’s Club fuel centers without needing a separate Sam’s Club membership.

Fuel savings can vary by state, station and location.

6. Free Pharmacy Delivery

Walmart+ members can receive free delivery of eligible prescriptions with no order minimum in participating areas.

Delivery availability depends on your location, medication and available delivery options.

7. Burger King Savings

Yes, this is now a Walmart+ perk!

Members can link their Walmart+ membership to a Burger King Royal Perks account and receive:

• 25% off one eligible Burger King digital order per day at participating locations
• A free Whopper with a purchase once per quarter

Restrictions apply, and the accounts need to be linked before using the offers.

8. Free Online Pet Care with Pawp

Pet owners can get a free Pawp membership with Walmart+, including 24/7 access to veterinary professionals through your phone.

Pawp includes unlimited on-demand visits, ongoing care guidance and personalized recommendations. Optional upgraded Pawp services may cost extra.

9. Returns From Home

For eligible purchases and locations, Walmart+ can make returns much easier.

Depending on the item and your location, you may be able to schedule a return pickup from home. Some Walmart pickups don’t require you to box or print a label for the eligible item.

Other returns may be handled through FedEx pickup and require packaging and a printed label.

Check the return options shown in your Walmart account for the specific item.

10. Mobile Scan & Go

Shopping inside Walmart? Use the Walmart app to scan items as you shop and pay through your phone using Mobile Scan & Go at participating stores.

You’ll still complete the final checkout process before leaving, but it can make a big shopping trip much quicker.

11. Walmart+ Travel Rewards

Book eligible travel through Walmart+ Travel powered by Expedia and earn Walmart Cash.

Members currently earn:

• 2% Walmart Cash on airfare
• 10% Walmart Cash on hotels, car rentals and activities

Walmart Cash earned from travel can be used toward eligible future Walmart purchases.

12. Free Photo Prints & Other In-Store Perks

Walmart has expanded Walmart+ with several member-only perks available inside participating stores.

These currently include:

• 25 free 4×6 photo prints each month
• One eligible fee-free Money Center service per calendar quarter, such as certain check cashing, money order, bill payment or money-transfer fees
• Free eligible flat tire repair at Walmart Auto Care Centers
• Free road hazard warranty with qualifying new-tire installation purchases

Availability and restrictions vary by service and location.

13. Optional 5% Cash Back with the OnePay CashRewards Card

Walmart+ members who separately apply and are approved for the OnePay CashRewards Card can earn unlimited 5% cash back at Walmart, subject to the card’s terms.

This is an optional credit-card benefit and is not automatic just because you have Walmart+.

14. Share Select Walmart+ Benefits

Walmart also allows eligible members to share many Walmart+ benefits with a family member through Walmart+ benefit sharing.

The invited family member can use many benefits through their own Walmart account, including eligible free delivery, pharmacy delivery, fuel savings, Scan & Go, Returns From Home, auto-care benefits and Walmart+ Travel.

Some benefits—including the streaming choice and Burger King savings—remain limited to the primary member.

How Much Does Walmart+ Cost?

The regular Walmart+ membership price is:

• $98 per year plus applicable tax
• $12.95 per month plus applicable tax

Walmart frequently runs introductory and promotional membership offers, so check the current Walmart+ signup page before joining rather than assuming the regular price is the best available deal.
