If you're shopping in-store at Walmart, you can't use Apple Pay, Google Pay or most other contactless payment options to make a purchase. But you do have other options.You can still use most major credit and debit cards when buying something in-store or online. Although the retailer doesn't accept payments via third-party digital wallets, it will continue to accept its own digital wallet, Walmart Pay, which was launched in 2016.A Walmart spokesperson confirmed via email that the retailer does not accept NFC payments and offered Walmart Pay and other alternatives."We also have options that go beyond just payments, such as Scan & Go, which allow Sam's Club and Walmart Plus members to bypass the checkout altogether," the spokesperson said. Digital wallets like Apple Pay have grown in popularity over the last several years, offering the convenience of paying without having to carry a credit card. Apple Wallets and Google Wallets can store various payment options as well as things like your digital hotel key, boarding passes and concert tickets.Walmart, with more than 4,600 locations across the country, is one of the last major retailers to refuse to accept third-party contactless payment options.By sticking to its internal mobile payment app, Walmart avoids paying fees for third-party options and can more easily track your purchase history.
