Can you use your Walmart credit card at Sam's Club?

Consumers can use their Walmart credit cards to shop at Sam's Club and to make purchases at Sam's Club gas stations. However, they cannot use their Walmart credit cards when they shop online at SamsClub.com.

There is no annual fee on Walmart credit cards. Cardholders have zero liability fraud protection and are eligible for special financing offers throughout the year. Walmart credit cardholders also receive free monthly FICO credit score reports. Walmart credit provides additional discounts on gas at Walmart gas stations, but it only provides discounts at Sam's Club gas stations that are open to the public.

Sam's Club members enjoy discounts on accounting and tax services. Members receive discounted auto pricing at over 10,000 dealerships around the country.
