Walmart+ is new Amazon Prime rival – with unlimited free deliveries for $13 a month
WALMART has launched its own rival to Amazon Prime – and it's slightly cheaper.
We reveal everything you need to know about Walmart+, including how to get free unlimited deliveries and bag a free trial.
What is Walmart+? Amazon Prime rival revealed
Walmart+ is a brand new subscription service designed to rival Amazon Prime.
It's a US-only payment plan that'll get you unlimited free deliveries from Walmart.
The first catch is that this rule only applies if you spend more than $35 in a single order.
But that shouldn't be too tough: there are more than 160,000 items available.
Walmart+ release date – when is it out?
Sadly, Walmart+ isn't available immediately.
You're going to have to wait until September 15, 2020 to bag the new offer.
It's also US only, and isn't being extended to foreign Walmart operations – including the UK's Asda.
Walmart+ vs Amazon Prime – which is better?
Walmart+ is marginally cheaper than Amazon Prime ($12.99 a month), but only just.
And for the price, Amazon Prime offers far more.
You get access to Amazon Video (a Netflix rival), Amazon Music, Twitch Prime, Prime Now deliveries, and free Kindle book loans.
By contrast, Walmart+ offers absolutely nothing beyond the free unlimited deliveries offering.
That may change in time, and if you love Walmart then that adds value in itself.
But in terms of raw value, Amazon Prime appears to be where your money would be better spent.
In other news, Amazon can finally start making real drone deliveries.
Amazon is taking on Fitbit and the Apple Watch with its new Halo fitness band.
Amazon now lets you "see" products in your house using your phone camera.
And you can now talk to Alexa even when you're in the car thanks to Echo Auto.
