How to cancel Walmart+
You can cancel your Walmart+ membership at any time through your Walmart account online, and the process takes about two minutes. You will not be charged again after you cancel, though you keep access to your membership benefits through the end of your current billing period. If you signed up through a third-party service like Instacart+ or a carrier plan, you will need to cancel through that service instead.
The steps differ slightly depending on whether you manage your subscription on Walmart.com, the Walmart mobile app, or through a partner service. Below are the exact paths for each.
Key Takeaways
- You can cancel Walmart+ directly through your Walmart account online or in the mobile app without calling customer service.
- Your membership remains active until the end of your current billing cycle, even after you cancel.
- If you signed up through Instacart+, Amazon Prime, or a phone carrier, you must cancel through that service, not through Walmart.
- Walmart will not refund charges for the current billing period, but you will not be charged for the next one.
Cancel through Walmart.com
Log into your Walmart account at Walmart.com and go to your account settings. Click on "Memberships" or "Subscriptions" (the exact label varies by account type). Find Walmart+ in the list and select "Manage" or "View Details."
On the Walmart+ details page, look for a button labeled "Cancel Membership" or "End Membership." Click it. Walmart will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may show you a brief survey about why you are leaving — this is optional. Once you confirm, your cancellation is complete. You will receive a confirmation email within a few minutes.
Cancel through the Walmart mobile app
Open the Walmart app and tap the account icon (usually in the bottom right corner). Scroll down to "Memberships" or "Subscriptions." Tap on Walmart+ and select "Manage Membership" or "View Details."
Tap "Cancel Membership" and confirm your choice. The app will show you the date your membership ends. You will receive a confirmation email, and your cancellation takes effect when ready in the app.
Cancel if you signed up through Instacart+
If your Walmart+ membership came bundled with Instacart+ (a combined subscription that covers both services), you must cancel through Instacart, not through Walmart. Log into your Instacart account, go to "Account Settings," and find "Memberships." Select Instacart+ and choose "Cancel Membership."
Canceling Instacart+ will end both your Instacart+ and Walmart+ memberships at the same time. If you want to keep one service and cancel only the other, you will need to contact Instacart customer service, as the app does not offer a split option.
Cancel if you signed up through Amazon Prime or a phone carrier
If Walmart+ came as a benefit through Amazon Prime membership or through a phone carrier like Verizon or T-Mobile, cancel through that service instead. Log into your Amazon account or your carrier's app, find the membership or benefits section, and cancel Walmart+ there.
These bundled memberships are managed by the primary service, so Walmart's cancellation tools will not work. Your carrier or Amazon will handle the cancellation and confirm it with you.
What happens after you cancel
Your Walmart+ membership remains active through the end of your current billing period. If you were charged on the 15th of the month, for example, and you cancel on the 20th, you keep all Walmart+ benefits (free delivery, discounts, fuel savings) until the 15th of the next month. After that date, you lose access to member-only features.
Walmart does not refund the charge for your current billing period. If you cancel mid-cycle, you do not receive a prorated refund. Your next billing date will not occur — you will not be charged again.
If you want to rejoin later
You can sign up for Walmart+ again at any time. If you rejoin within a short window (usually 30 days), Walmart may offer you a discounted rate or a free trial period to come back. There is no penalty for canceling and rejoining later.
When you rejoin, you will need to set up your payment method again. Any previous preferences or saved information in your account will still be there, but your membership benefits start fresh on the new sign-up date.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a refund if I cancel mid-cycle?
No. Walmart does not refund charges for the current billing period. You keep your membership benefits through the end of that period, but you will not receive money back for the unused portion of your subscription.
Can I pause my Walmart+ membership instead of canceling?
Walmart does not offer a pause feature. Your only options are to keep your membership active or cancel it. If you want to rejoin later, you can sign up again whenever you choose.
What if I cancel but still see a charge on my credit card?
If you see a charge after canceling, it is likely the final charge for your current billing period, which processes before your cancellation takes effect. Check the date of the charge — if it matches your regular billing date and you canceled after that date, it is the last charge you will see. If you have questions, contact Walmart customer service with your confirmation email.
Do I lose my Walmart account if I cancel Walmart+?
No. Canceling Walmart+ only removes the paid membership. Your Walmart.com account, purchase history, saved items, and payment methods all stay in place. You can still shop at Walmart without the membership benefits.
How do I cancel if I forgot my password?
Use the "Forgot Password" link on the Walmart login page to reset it. You will receive an email with a reset link. Once you log back in, follow the cancellation steps above. If you cannot access your email, contact Walmart customer service and provide your account details.
