[INTERVIEW] Earn Reward Dollars with Walmart

Today we feature David Page from Walmart Canada, who is going to share some new initiatives that came in recently and what else they are working on. Thank you David for taking the time out of your busy schedule to answer our questions. Looking forward to see what partnerships you may build!

1) Can you share a bit about yourself and your role at Walmart Canada?

I’m David Page, Director, Financial Services at Walmart Canada, and I’m responsible for the Walmart Rewards Mastercard product.

2) Walmart entered the credit card market in 2010. How has the journey been since then?

2010 marked the launch of our Walmart Rewards Mastercard. Since then, we’ve launched a Walmart Rewards World Mastercard to offer incremental rewards opportunities to customers. Over the past few years, we’ve been investing in the customer experience and incremental rewards opportunities with the vision of helping Walmart Rewards Mastercard holders earn rewards while they save money at Walmart, both in stores and online.

3) Walmart has made enhancements to its credit card rewards program. What motivated these changes?

The enhancements we’ve made were another way to help Canadians save more money when they shop with Walmart given the challenges they’ve been facing over the past few years, including high inflation and the increasing cost of living. The offer we recently announced is tied to our Walmart Brands because our private brands line offers quality products at low, everyday prices. Walmart Brands products already help Canadians save up to 33%, and when using the Walmart Rewards Mastercard, our customers can amplify their savings with 5% back in Walmart Reward dollars. We also amplified the rewards earning opportunity by offering 2% back on transportation purchases including gas, EV charging, transit, taxi, ride sharing and more. Both enhancements provide customers the opportunity to earn rewards and redeem them on everyday low price purchases so they can save money and live better.

4) What other initiatives or rewards can shoppers look forward to in the near future?

We’re always looking for partnerships and rewards opportunities to make the Walmart Rewards Mastercard the best no-fee credit card option for Canadians who are looking to save time and money by shopping at Walmart. We have some exciting new programs on the horizon that we believe will excite our customers. More to come down the road!

5) Do you have any final thoughts or messages you’d like to share?

We’re excited about the rewards opportunities we offer and proud that Walmart Rewards are more than just points – it’s another way we’re helping our customers save even more money when they shop at Walmart.
