Walmart+ Members Can Now Chose Their Free Streaming Benefit
Walmart+ has enhanced the video streaming benefit by adding a new streaming partner, Peacock. This is a new option for members who currently get free Paramount+.
Beginning on Sept. 15, Walmart+ members will be able to choose between the ad-supported plans of Peacock and Paramount+ at no additional cost.
Walmart+ is a paid membership that costs $98 a year or $12.95/month. Many readers likely have this membership for free thanks to their Amex Platinum card. Benefits of Walmart+ include free same day delivery on grocery and Rx, free shipping with no order minimum, deeper gas discounts, Burger King discounts, and 5% unlimited cashback through the newly announced OnePay CashRewards Credit Card.
With this enhanced benefit, members can access an array of premium entertainment. They’ll have the freedom to choose between Paramount+ Essential, featuring a vast selection of championship sports, iconic franchises, popular movies and hit original series such as NCIS: Tony & Ziva (premiering Sept. 4), Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Landman and Tulsa King, or Peacock Premium, known for live sports, blockbuster films, reality TV favorites, next-day access to NBC and Bravo programming, and Spanish language content such as the Telemundo Hub. To make the offering even more flexible, members can switch between the two services every 90 days. This added level of flexibility is designed to cater to members’ diverse entertainment needs, placing Walmart+ in a league of its own as a dynamic, member-focused subscription service.
It’s worth noting that Peacock is also complimentary for those who have Instacart+. So if you have an eligible Chase credit card, then you can get Instacart+ for free and then Peacock for free as well. Peacock is also one of the eligible streaming services for the Amex Platinum card’s entertainment credit.
