What You Get When You Bundle Paramount Plus With Walmart+
Walmart+ members receive a Paramount+ subscription at no extra cost as part of their membership. This means if you already pay for Walmart+, you can watch Paramount+ shows and movies without a separate monthly fee. The bundle works on the same account — you do not need to create a second login or manage two separate subscriptions.
The Paramount+ content included is the standard ad-supported version. This means you will see advertisements during shows and movies, similar to watching cable television. If you want the ad-free version of Paramount+, you would need to pay an additional monthly fee on top of your Walmart+ membership.
Key Takeaways
- Walmart+ members automatically receive Paramount+ with ads included in their membership at no extra charge.
- You access Paramount+ through the Paramount+ app or website using your Walmart+ login credentials.
- The bundle only works if you have an active Walmart+ membership; canceling Walmart+ will end your Paramount+ access.
- You can remove the Paramount+ benefit from your Walmart+ account if you do not want to use it, but this does not lower your Walmart+ price.
- The ad-free version of Paramount+ requires a separate paid subscription beyond your Walmart+ membership.
How to Access Paramount+ Through Your Walmart+ Account
Start by opening the Paramount+ app on your phone, tablet, or streaming device, or go to the Paramount+ website in your web browser. Look for a sign-in option that says "Sign in with Walmart+" or a similar button. Tap or click it, then enter your Walmart account email address and password.
After you sign in, Paramount+ will confirm that your account is linked to your Walmart+ membership. You should see a message saying something like "Paramount+ included with Walmart+" or "Your subscription is active." From that point forward, you can watch any show or movie on Paramount+ without being asked to pay. If you use multiple devices, you will need to sign in on each one the first time, but after that the connection stays active.
Setting Up Paramount+ on Different Devices
On a smartphone or tablet: read the Paramount+ app from the Apple App Store (for iPhone or iPad) or Google Play Store (for Android phones). Open the app, tap "Sign In," select "Sign in with Walmart+," and enter your Walmart credentials. The app will remember your login, so you will not have to sign in again unless you manually log out.
On a streaming device: If you use a Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, or Google TV device, search for the Paramount+ app in that device's app store. read and open it. When you launch the app for the first time, it will show you a code on your screen. Go to the Paramount+ website on a computer or phone, select "Link Your Device," enter that code, and sign in with your Walmart credentials. The device will then be linked permanently.
On a web browser: Visit paramount.com in any web browser, click "Sign In," choose "Sign in with Walmart+," and enter your Walmart email and password. You can watch when ready without downloading anything. If you use multiple browsers or computers, you will need to sign in on each one separately.
Checking Your Walmart+ Membership Status
Before you try to access Paramount+, make sure your Walmart+ membership is currently active. Go to walmart.com, sign in to your account, and look for "Walmart+ Membership" or "Your Membership" in the account menu. You should see a status that says "Active" or shows your renewal date. If your membership has expired or been canceled, you will not be able to use Paramount+.
If your membership is active but Paramount+ is not working, try signing out of the Paramount+ app completely and signing back in. Sometimes the connection between the two services needs to be refreshed. If that does not work, you can contact Walmart+ customer service through the Walmart website or app to confirm that Paramount+ is linked to your account.
What to Do If Paramount+ Is Not Showing as Included
If you sign in to Paramount+ with your Walmart credentials but the app asks you to pay for a subscription, the most common reason is that your Walmart+ membership is not active. Check your Walmart account to confirm your membership has not expired. Walmart+ memberships renew automatically each month or year depending on your plan, but payment issues or account changes can interrupt the renewal.
Another possibility is that you are signing in with the wrong email address. Make sure you are using the exact email address associated with your Walmart+ account. If you have multiple email addresses linked to Walmart, try signing in with each one to find the correct account. You can also check your Walmart account settings to see which email is registered for Walmart+.
If your membership is definitely active and you are using the correct email, try unlinking and relinking the accounts. Go to your Walmart account settings, find the Paramount+ section, and look for an option to disconnect or remove the benefit. Then sign out of the Paramount+ app completely, close it, reopen it, and sign in again with your Walmart credentials. This usually forces the system to re-establish the connection.
Managing Your Paramount+ Benefit in Walmart+ Settings
You can view or change your Paramount+ settings through your Walmart+ account. Sign in to walmart.com, go to your account menu, and select "Walmart+ Membership" or "Manage Membership." Look for a section about included benefits or Paramount+. From here you can see that Paramount+ is included, and in some cases you can choose to remove the benefit if you do not want it.
Removing the Paramount+ benefit does not change your Walmart+ price — you will still pay the same amount for Walmart+. Removing it straightforward means you will no longer see Paramount+ content when you sign in. You can add it back at any time by going to the same settings page. This option is useful if you do not plan to watch Paramount+ and want to keep your account clean, but it is not required.
Upgrading to Paramount+ Without Ads
The Paramount+ subscription included with Walmart+ shows advertisements. If you want to watch without ads, you will need to pay an additional monthly fee directly to Paramount+. This is a separate subscription from your Walmart+ membership and does not replace it — you keep paying for Walmart+ and add the ad-free tier on top.
To upgrade, open the Paramount+ app or website, go to your account settings, and look for subscription options or upgrade choices. Select the ad-free plan and follow the steps to add a payment method. Paramount+ will charge you monthly for the ad-free version in addition to your Walmart+ bill. You can cancel the ad-free upgrade at any time and go back to the ad-supported version included with Walmart+.
