Walmart+ is a $98\/year ($12.95\/month) subscription service that provides many of the same benefits of Prime. But it takes those benefits to another level by leveraging something that Amazon doesn\u2019t have\u2014 4,700 brick-and-mortar retail locations that can act as multi-purpose hubs for in-store shopping, buy online, pick-up (BOPIS) locations and fulfillment centers (ship from store).<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketplacepulse.com\/articles\/walmarts-online-sales-to-reach-28-billion-in-2020\">Walmart ecommerce on track to surpass $28B in 2020,<\/a> driven by strong growth in their grocery pickup and delivery, Walmart is attempting to fuel performance even more by leveraging the synergistic relationship between their growing ecommerce footprint and their dominant physical presence. Being able to leverage consumers\u2019 increasing demand for both fast and free shipping and in-store pick-up allows for an offering that truly differentiates from the competition.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"color: #00458f;\">Initially, Walmart+ will offer:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unlimited Free Shipping<\/strong>.
