Walmart Canada is unveiling a new unlimited free next-day delivery service for all of its stores thanks to a partnership with its new subscription program, Delivery Pass. As a part of the new program, customers will be able to order over 65,000 items spanning toys, groceries, electronics, and more, for a monthly price of $8.97 or $118 annually.
The Delivery Pass program will be available for customers based in Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. Delivery fees will be deducted automatically at checkout, allowing pass holders to upgrade to same-day or express delivery.
"Not only will our customers save money when shopping with Walmart Canada, they can now spend less time shopping in-store with groceries and more delivered right to their doors from our stores. We’re unlocking access to unlimited, free next-day delivery on items including groceries, electronics and toys at a low price they can afford," commented Ignacio Baladron, Walmart Canada's omnichannel operation vice president.
