Walmart finally accepts Apple Pay and Google Pay at stores

In the United States, Walmart announced it will start accepting Apple Pay and Google Pay at its stores on August 24, 2026. This decision comes after years of customer requests for these payment options, as Walmart was one of the last major retailers not to support them. The company plans to roll out tap-to-pay capabilities to select locations first, with a full rollout expected by the end of 2026.
