Quick Value Check: The Walmart+ credit alone is worth up to $155 per year, before you count the streaming subscription or the Burger King savings that come with the membership.
What You're Missing: The Full Benefit Stack
Walmart+ Membership (Up to $155/Year in Credits)
Your Amex Platinum Card gives you up to $12.95 back each month, plus applicable taxes, when you pay for one auto-renewing monthly Walmart+ membership with your card. Only the monthly plan qualifies, so an annual Walmart+ membership won't earn the credit. The membership includes:
- Delivery for no additional cost
- Shipping for no additional cost
- Fuel discounts - save up to 10¢/gallon at participating stations
- Mobile Scan & Go - skip checkout lines
- Early access to deals
- Streaming - your choice of Paramount+ Essential or Peacock Premium
- Burger King savings - 25% off one digital order daily and a free Whopper® every quarter

Bonus: Burger King Savings
