Link your Walmart and Google Assistant accounts

Desktop users:

Go to this Walmart skill and tap or click the "link" button to connect your online Walmart account to your Google Assistant account. You'll need to already be signed in to your Google account that you use Assistant with, and then once you tap "link", you will be prompted to sign in to your Walmart account.

From there, the two accounts will be connected, and you can get started using the Walmart Voice Order feature.

Android users:

  1. To get started, simply say "Ok Google, talk to Walmart."
  2. Once prompted, tap the link to connect & sign in to your Walmart account.

iOS users:

  1. Download the Google Assistant app from the app store.
  2. Sign in with a Gmail account.
  3. Ask your assistant to "Talk to Walmart."
  4. Once prompted, tap the link to sign in to your Walmart account.

Using Walmart Voice Order

To activate the Walmart Voice Order feature, say to your Google Assistant device, "Hey Google, talk to Walmart". Google Assistant will then be able to add items directly to your virtual Walmart shopping cart. You can then say something like, "Add milk to my cart". Walmart said it'll make sure to learn the brands you love.

Walmart can even add the specific milk you regularly buy. So, instead of saying "one gallon of 1 per cent Great Value organic milk" every time to Walmart via your Google Assistant device, you can just say "milk". Easy! You're only able to order grocery items, but there are more than 100,000 grocery items available.
