How to Use a Whistle Card at Walmart

Edited

Got a Whistle card for a Walmart campaign and wondering how to use it? You’re in the right place. Whether you're shopping in-store or using the Walmart app, here’s a quick guide to help you redeem your perks.

First Things First: What’s a Whistle Card?

A Whistle card is a prepaid digital Visa card you receive as a perk for participating in certain Hummingbirds campaigns. You can use it just like any regular Visa card—online or in-store—until the balance runs out. Here's more info on that.

How to Use Your Whistle Card In-Store at Walmart

You have two easy ways to pay with your Whistle card at Walmart:

Option 1: Add it to Walmart Pay

Walmart Pay is a contactless payment method in the Walmart app. It’s super convenient and works directly from your phone!

Here’s how:

  1. Download the Walmart app (if you haven’t already).

  2. Open the app and tap “Account” > “Wallet.”

  3. Select “Add a new payment method” and choose Visa.

  4. Enter your Whistle card details (card number, expiration, CVV).

  5. At checkout in-store, open Walmart Pay in the app and scan the QR code at the register to pay.

Option 2: OnePay Wallet

This option gives you 1 point for every $10 spent at Walmart—points you can turn into cash back.

How to use it:

  1. Download the OnePay app from the App Store or Google Play.

  2. Sign up with your phone number, name, and email.

  3. Choose “OnePay” when prompted.

  4. In the app, go to Wallet and add your Whistle card (as a Visa).

  5. In-store: Open the app and scan the QR code at checkout.

  6. Online: Set OnePay Wallet as your payment method on Walmart.com when checking out.

Option 3: Pay Your Way + Use Whistle Funds Elsewhere

If you prefer not to use either of these options at Walmart, you can always pay with your preferred method of personal payment and use the funds on your Whistle card to shop elsewhere!
