10 Account Tools That Simplify Your Finances

You’ve put a bow on last year’s budget and are in the thick of planning for this year. Maybe you’re wondering if you can shave some money off office expenses and shipping supplies so you can add headcount or buy new tools. Or maybe you just need to free up some time to spend with clients or just take a coffee break once in a while.

With savings and account tools designed with business owners like you in mind, we’re here to take some pressure off your purchasing and budgeting process.  Here’s how we can help.

Time & money saving features of a free Walmart Business account

Price check

Using the Walmart Business app, you can scan the barcode of an item in-store or in the office to check the price. Need more than what’s on the shelf, or no time to make it to a store? Add it to your cart in the app and have it shipped to your door.

Worry less about maxing out your budget when you can check the price of items you buy often. Plus, you can scan your favorites when they’re running low, add them to your cart, get them shipped or delivered to your door and move on with your day.

Shared lists

Any user on your account can create and share a shopping list with your team. Others can suggest swaps or additions, so everyone gets what they need in one order.

Avoid duplicate or unnecessary orders that you have to cancel or return, and spend less on shipping when you place fewer, larger orders.

Tax-exempt shopping

Are you a nonprofit, school, or other tax-exempt organization? It’s simple to apply your tax-exempt status to your Walmart Business purchases both online and in-store with Walmart Pay in the Walmart Business app.

Saving money on tax-exempt items is made simpler with online enrollment, which means no more documents to bring to the store with the Walmart Tax Exempt Program.

Walmart Pay

Store a single payment method for every user to pay with, without having to bring a physical card to the store. Walmart Pay also helps you keep things simple by connecting your in-store purchases to your account history so you can see all your purchases in one place.

Plus, it’s your fast, touch-free payment option when shopping in-store with the Walmart Business app.

Multiuser accounts & shared payments

A free Walmart Business account or Walmart Business+ Core plan can add up to 5 users who can all share a payment method online or in store with Walmart Pay, and create and share lists to make ordering easier.

Members of the Walmart Business+ Premium plan can add up to 50 users while Enterprise plans can add even more, with the ability to set up groups of users to keep things organized.

This simplifies ordering for your organization, keeps payments centralized and makes sure everyone is able to get what they need to do their job.

Detailed purchase history

Keep track of all your orders with an easy-to-download purchase history whether you have one user or 50. Admins can get a simple spreadsheet of every order with dates, purchase totals, order numbers and internal PO numbers or reference IDs.

You’ll save time trying to track down information on each individual purchase so you can reconcile with confidence. Plus, you get a top-down view of who is buying what, and which items you spend the most on.

Charge history

Get better visibility into the details of every transaction, not just the final payment. Users can see crucial financial information like credit card holds, changes to your order and refund timelines.

Charge history keeps you from having to track down the details of every transaction, so you can keep accurate records and stay in front of any surprises, so things keep running smoothly.

Internal PO number or reference IDs

If you use purchase order numbers or other IDs to keep track of every purchase, it’s simple to include that reference number on your Walmart Business order during or after checkout. That way, you can easily reconcile your purchase history with your internal records, close out the month or quarter and move on with your day.

Additional features & benefits of a paid Walmart Business+ membership plan

Purchasing groups & additional users

Members of a Walmart Business+ Premium or Enterprise plan can organize their account users into groups by department, location, function and more. With up to 50 users on a Premium plan and more on an Enterprise plan, knowing which purchases came from what group can save a lot of time and headaches.

Keeping account users neat and tidy is one thing, but along with Spend Analytics, you can see what your teams are ordering in real time, identify trends and discover opportunities to save money or run more efficiently.

Spend Analytics

As a Walmart Business+ member, you can stay on top of spending, spot trends and look for ways to save money with Spend Analytics. If you have teams buying the same items or someone spending too much on copy paper, you’ll be able to quickly jump in and adjust.

All of your account expense data is in one place, meaning no extra steps to stay on top of your spending. So you can spend less time sorting through purchasing trends and more time helping clients, hiring new people or scouting your next location.
