Walmart has strict shipping standards including unique timelines and policies. Failure to understand Walmart’s shipping standards can result in the suspension of your account so please read carefully and email us at Support@GeekSeller.com if you need clarification.
All shipping settings have to be set up on your Walmart Seller Center directly with the shipping templates.
See the table below for details about the transit times of all shipping methods:
Value Shipping
Value shipping is enabled by default in all shipping templates and allows sellers to fulfill orders using a slower but free shipping service without carrier restrictions.
- Value shipping is supported in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C.
- Value transit time is 6-7 business days by default
- You cannot charge a shipping fee using this method
The only way to disable the Value shipping is by creating a Paid Standard Shipping Template:
Standard Shipping
This shipping option can be offered in addition to Value Shipping.
- It can be enabled/disabled for any region
- You can charge a shipping fee for Standard Shipping
- Transit time can be between 3-5 business days.
OneDay and TwoDay Shipping
These two types of shipping belongs to Expedited Delivery Program and you need to apply to be able to use it. Once you are approved you can add these shipping options.
- TwoDay – 2 business days transit time
- OneDay – 1 business days transit time
- In both methods, you can use a third-party provider approved by Walmart to get the OneDay and TwoDay shipping options.
Freight Shipping
Large and bulky items (LTL) that can’t be delivered through ground or air carrier services must be configured with Freight shipping.
This method can only be configured with a Freight Shipping Template.
Freight transit time can be set to 6-10 business days.- Sellers can choose what they charge buyers for Freight shipping, or offer it for free.
