Case Study: Walmart and PayPal’s Hyperwallet

Walmart Marketplace integrated PayPal’s Hyperwallet for payouts in late 2019. The world’s largest retailer is now one of the world’s most innovative omnichannel retailers as it challenges and changes the ecommerce world.

Walmart, the largest retailer in the world, launched Walmart Marketplace as a curated community of third-party sellers. It allows select sellers access to offer their products on www.walmart.com, which reaches over 120 million unique site visitors per month.

The community aspect comes from the instruction, tools, and leadership offered to Walmart Marketplace sellers. This helps sellers stay aligned with Walmart's impeccable standards of quality products and exceptional customer service.

Whether it’s more payout options, tax processing, or operational efficiencies, everybody wins when the approach is perpetual improvement.
