EL DORADO, Ark. — Murphy USA Inc. will take part in Walmart's newly announced membership offering, Walmart+, where members can save up to 5 cents per gallon on fuel transactions at Walmart, Murphy USA and Murphy Express branded locations.
The majority of Murphy USA's sites are located in close proximity to Walmart stores.
Walmart+ members will be able to access the fuel discount instantly at the fuel dispenser starting Sept. 15.
Membership in Walmart+ costs $98 a year or $12.95 a month. A 15-day trial period is included. Along with fuel discounts, which will soon be extended to Sam's Club gas stations, members can enjoy:
- Unlimited free delivery with in-store prices, as fast as same-day delivery on more than 160,000 items.
- Scan & Go through the Walmart mobile app, which allows shoppers to scan their items while they shop in-store then pay using Walmart Pay.
- Existing customer offerings such as free curbside pickup, NextDay delivery and two-day delivery.
Walmart will continue to have delivery options with a per-delivery transaction fee.
