Walmart and Expedia Group announced a new partnership that will benefit Walmart+ members booking travel.

Walmart+ members can now book getaways through WalmartPlusTravel.com and get Walmart Cash. The website is powered by Expedia Group’s White Label Template technology, giving members access to more than 900,000 properties, 500 airlines, 100 car rental companies and thousands of activities around the world.

Walmart+ members will receive five percent Walmart Cash on hotels, vacation rentals, car rentals and activities bookings, as well as two percent Walmart Cash on all flights and a blended rate of Walmart Cash on vacation packages.

“We're bringing together the ultimate savings membership and vacation booking site to deliver a first-ever travel-focused benefit for Walmart+ members,” Walmart+ senior vice president Venessa Yates said.

“Combined with our other benefits - including free delivery, streaming and savings on fuel - we’re creating a membership that saves customers time and money, whether they’re at home or having fun at their favorite vacation destination,” Yates continued.

As part of the new offering, Walmart+ members will also have access to Expedia Group’s end-to-end customer service, including live agents and self-serve capabilities, like their A.I.-powered Virtual Agent tool.

To make it easier for potential members, Walmart explained how it works:

—Easy to find: Walmart+ members will access travel through their member benefits hub in the app or WalmartPlusTravel.com.

—Easy to book: Members can choose travel options like flights, hotels, vacation rentals, car rentals, packages and activities.

—Easy to earn: After the booking is confirmed, any Walmart Cash received will appear in the member’s Walmart wallet. Walmart Cash will become available 30 days after travel is completed and can be used on future Walmart purchases or cashed out in store.
