As of October 2026, Walmart+ costs $12.95 a month or $98 a year, plus applicable tax. An annual Walmart+ membership with Sam's Club Plus included is $120, and students pay $6.47 a month or $49 a year.
Walmart+ is Walmart's paid membership for free delivery, shipping and a long list of perks. There are only two standard ways to pay, monthly or annually, but there are also a student rate, a Sam's Club combination and a separate InHome add-on that change the total. Every figure here is from Walmart's own help center.

The Sam's Club Plus combination
The $120 annual option bundles Walmart+ with a Sam's Club Plus membership. If you shop at both, compare the combined $120 with the $98 Walmart+ annual price and ask whether the Sam's Club Plus benefits are worth the difference to you. For a closer look at the club side, see the Sam's Club membership tiers, and the Costco membership tiers are the other warehouse option worth pricing before you choose.
Walmart+ Student
Students get every benefit full price members get, at $6.47 a month or $49 a year. New members can join at that rate, and existing members can switch if they aren't on certain third party offers. Walmart re-verifies student status every year. If the annual re-verification fails, you're no longer eligible and the plan auto renews at $12.95 a month or $98 a year plus taxes until you cancel, and Walmart emails you about the change.
Who Walmart+ suits best
Walmart+ earns its fee fastest for households that order essentials online every week, live near a store that delivers, and use the pharmacy delivery or fuel savings. It's weakest for people who shop in store once a fortnight and rarely need shipping, because most of the value sits in delivery.
Walmart+ InHome
InHome is a paid add-on, not part of the standard membership. It delivers your order into your kitchen, garage or to your doorstep, with tip free and delivery fee free delivery when you pick an InHome time slot. Members pay $7 a month or $40 a year plus tax, there's a $35 order minimum, and InHome is only available in limited US zip codes.
Benefits people forget they're paying for
Most members join for free delivery and never touch half the list. Before you decide Walmart+ isn't worth it, check these three, because they're all in the standard membership on Walmart's help page:
- Video Streaming Choice: Walmart lists a streaming benefit in the membership, so check it before paying for the same service separately.
- Benefits Sharing: you can share benefits with someone else, which changes the value for a couple or a family.
- Walmart+ Gas Savings: if you drive a lot, the fuel benefit adds up across a year.
Add those to delivery and the maths looks different, especially on the annual plan.
Monthly or annual: which should you pick?
- Count how many deliveries or shipped orders you place in a typical month.
- If you'll use Walmart+ every month of the year, the $98 annual plan costs less than paying $12.95 twelve times.
- If you only need it for a busy season, pay monthly and cancel afterwards.
- If you also want Sam's Club Plus, price the $120 combination against two separate memberships.
- Students should always start with the student rate.
My verdict
For a household that orders groceries or essentials from Walmart most weeks, the $98 annual plan is the obvious pick: free store delivery plus free shipping with no order minimum pays for itself quickly. If you're testing it, go monthly for a couple of months first. And if you're a student, don't pay full price, because the $49 a year rate gets you the same benefits. Just watch the annual re-verification, since failing it quietly moves you to the full rate.
