Walmart+ members receive accelerated discounts on fuel

BENTONVILLE, Ark. – Starting today, through September 15, Walmart+ members can save 20 cents on every gallon of fuel purchased at participating Exxon and Mobil stations nationwide, the retailer announced, adding that this is two times the savings that subscribers already receive through their membership.

Walmart+ is helping steer members toward savings on fuel ahead of the Labor Day holiday weekend. The retailer is joining forces with Exxon Mobil to double the discount Walmart+ members currently receive at Exxon and Mobil stations nationwide, from 10 cents to 20 cents off every gallon of fuel.

“We know that fuel savings is a huge benefit for our Walmart+ members, one that really adds up,” comments Venessa Yates, senior vice president and general manager of Walmart+. “As gas prices have fluctuated over the last few months, we wanted to do something special to give our members a break, whether they’re hitting the road for the holiday, or just getting back into the busy back-to-school shuttling season.”

Last year, Walmart+ expanded the footprint of its savings benefit sixfold with the addition of about 12,000 Exxon and Mobil stations nationwide. Since that time, Walmart+ members have benefitted from millions of dollars collectively in fuel savings alone.

“We are excited to continue to grow our collaboration with Walmart+ members by offering them 20 cents off per gallon at about 12,000 Exxon and Mobil stations across the country,” explains Troy Simms, US consumer marketing director retail fuels at ExxonMobil. “We understand the importance of helping families stay budget conscious, while still getting the opportunity to fill up with our Synergy fuel technology that not only helps improve fuel economy, but also protect car engines and enables better vehicle responsiveness.”
