Walmart and Burger King are out with a Whopper of a new partnership (pun intended). Walmart+ members can get discounts on Burger King orders every day and a free Whopper every 3 months.

Wondering what The Platinum Card^® from American Express has to do with this? If you’re a cardholder, you can get a Walmart+ membership at no out-of-pocket cost, unlocking free burgers — and who doesn’t like free burgers?

Here are the details on how to claim this offer.

Walmart+ Now Offering Burger King Benefits

Walmart and Burger King are offering an exclusive benefit to Walmart+ members. Walmart+ members can get 25% off their first digital order daily with Burger King at participating U.S. locations.

Plus, starting in September 2024, Walmart+ members can claim a free Whopper once per quarter (every 3 months) when making a purchase of any amount in the BK app or at bk.com. This perk is available just once in 2024 but will be available up to 4 times per year going forward. Note that unused orders don’t carry over to the next quarter.

Why Burger King? Walmart+ executives believe its a benefit members were looking for.

“The inclusion of a Burger King benefit in our Walmart+ membership portfolio is exciting,” said Venessa Yates, senior vice president and general manager of Walmart+. “We consistently strive to offer benefits that focus on our members, aligning with our commitment to deliver undeniable value and convenience.”

To claim these benefits, you’ll need to link your Walmart+ and BK Royal Perks accounts. From here, visit the Offers tab in the Burger King app (iOS, Android) or your bk.com account. Add the offer to your account before placing a qualifying order.

Bottom Line:

You need to link your accounts and then add the offers to your account before you’ll get the discount or quarterly free Whopper.

How To Get Walmart+ With the Amex Platinum Card

If you’ve got the Amex Platinum card, you can enroll for a complimentary Walmart+ membership and receive a statement credit to cover the monthly membership fee of $12.95 plus tax. Ensure you enroll for this benefit first and then use your Amex Platinum card as your membership payment method to receive the credit.

Among other benefits, you’ll now get the Burger King perks available for Walmart+ members — and you can do so without any cost for the Walmart+ membership each month.

Hot Tip: Check to see if you’re eligible for a welcome bonus offer of up to 125k (or 150k) points with the Amex Platinum. The current public offer is 80,000 points. (This targeted offer was independently researched and may not be available to all applicants.)
