What You Get When You Bundle Paramount+ With Walmart+
Walmart+ members receive a free 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 Paramount+ access is included with all Walmart+ tiers—whether you have the standard plan or Walmart+ with Paramount+.
The Paramount+ content available through Walmart+ is the same as what you would get with a paid Paramount+ subscription: access to CBS shows, movies, sports, and original series. You can stream on multiple devices and create a household profile, though the number of simultaneous streams may vary depending on your Walmart+ plan.
Key Takeaways
- Paramount+ comes free with any active Walmart+ membership—you do not need to pay extra or sign up separately for Paramount+.
- You access Paramount+ through the Paramount+ app or website by signing in with the same account credentials you use for Walmart+.
- The bundle is automatic; once your Walmart+ membership is active, your Paramount+ access is already enabled.
- If you cancel Walmart+, your Paramount+ access stops when ready, so you lose the streaming service along with other Walmart+ benefits.
How to Sign Into Paramount+ With Your Walmart+ Account
Open the Paramount+ app on your phone, tablet, smart TV, or computer, or go to the Paramount+ website. Tap or click the sign-in button. You will see an option to sign in with your Walmart account—select that option instead of creating a new Paramount+ account.
Enter the email address and password you use for your Walmart+ membership. Once you sign in, Paramount+ checks whether your Walmart+ account is active and current. If your membership is valid, you will be granted access to the full Paramount+ library when ready. You do not need to enter a payment method or confirm anything else.
If you have never used the Paramount+ app before, you may be asked to choose your content preferences or set up a profile. This is optional but can help personalize your recommendations. After this setup, you can start watching right away.
Setting Up Profiles and Household Access
Once you are signed into Paramount+ with your Walmart+ account, you can create multiple profiles within that single account. This lets different household members have their own watch history and recommendations. Tap your account icon in the top right corner and select "Manage Profiles" or "Add Profile," depending on which device you are using.
Each profile can be named and assigned a PIN if you want to restrict access to certain content. Paramount+ allows you to stream on multiple devices at the same time, though the exact number depends on your Walmart+ plan—check your Walmart+ membership details to see how many simultaneous streams you have.
Troubleshooting Sign-In Problems
If you cannot sign in to Paramount+ with your Walmart+ account, first confirm that your Walmart+ membership is currently active and not expired. Log into your Walmart account directly to check your membership status. If your membership has lapsed, renew it before trying Paramount+ again.
If your Walmart+ is active but Paramount+ still will not recognize your account, try signing out completely from the Paramount+ app and signing back in. Clear the app's cache if you are on a phone or tablet—go to your device settings, find the Paramount+ app, and select "Clear Cache." On a computer, try a different browser or use an incognito or private window.
If the problem persists, restart your device entirely. Unplug your smart TV or router for 30 seconds, then plug it back in. For phones and tablets, power off the device, wait 10 seconds, and turn it back on. These steps often resolve temporary connection issues between Walmart+ and Paramount+.
What Happens If You Cancel Walmart+
Your Paramount+ access ends when ready when your Walmart+ membership ends. This happens whether you cancel intentionally or your membership straightforward expires because you did not renew. You will no longer be able to sign into Paramount+ using your Walmart+ account.
If you want to keep watching Paramount+ after canceling Walmart+, you would need to sign up for a paid Paramount+ subscription separately. This is a different account from the one you used through Walmart+, so you would start fresh with no saved watch history or profiles from your bundled access.
Switching Devices and Watching Offline
You can watch Paramount+ on any device where you can read the app or access the website—phones, tablets, computers, smart TVs, streaming devices like Roku or Amazon Fire Stick, and gaming consoles. Sign in with the same Walmart+ account credentials on each device, and your watch history and profiles will sync across them.
Paramount+ allows you to read episodes and movies to watch offline on phones and tablets. Open the show or movie you want to read, look for the read icon (usually a downward arrow), and tap it. Downloaded content stays on your device for a set period—usually 30 days—before it expires, even if you are not watching it.
