Walmart+ Teams Up With Burger King: Patriotic Savings Ahead!

The retail giant announced a mouthwatering "first-of-its-kind partnership" with Burger King today. Walmart+ members can now enjoy a 25% discount on digital orders daily at the fast food joint. Talk about winning the war on hunger!

Walmart said this "exclusive dining benefit for Walmart+ members" beefs up "the value and convenience of the membership program," designed to save members time and money. Because who has time for grocery shopping and cooking when you can have a Whopper instead?

"Given that most Americans eat from quick service restaurants several times a week, this benefit serves as a practical, cost-effective solution to accommodate dining preferences and busy schedules while enjoying the iconic taste of Burger King," Walmart said in a statement.

Free Whopper for Patriots

As if the discount wasn't enough, Walmart+ members will also get a free flame-grilled Whopper every three months with any purchase starting in September. Freedom fries anyone?

"Offered at no extra cost to the Walmart+ membership, the Burger King benefit is the latest move by Walmart+ to give its members even more value," Walmart said, adding that they've teamed up with Expedia and Paramount+ for more membership perks.

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

Walmart+ members can snag the 25% discount at Burger King via the Burger King app or online at bk.com by linking their Walmart membership to their Burger King Royal Perks account. Once linked, visit the offers tab on the app or website to apply the discount and place your order.
