Every time I try to buy gift cards and use Walmart pay to pay for the transaction the walmart app just stop the payment for security purposes and tells me to use another payment method.
Since I had another sub offer to do on a BoA CCR card, I decided to use that card and the transaction went through just fine on the app. Then when I tried it again on my SYW card, the app just stop the transaction again and tells me to use another payment method. I tried it again a third time but this time I had the gift card be only $5 and the transaction went through just fine on my SYW card via Walmart Pay. Anyone know how to solve this issue? I tried calling in both SYW and Walmart and both have no idea what I'm even talking about and point fingers at each other. I'm hoping I'm not stuck with buying $5 walmart gift cards here, because it is not feasible to buy in small amounts with such high spending requirements on these SYW offers.
I had problems back in July buying VISA g.c.
The app would just sit there and spin.
The second time it happened, I fiddled around with the Walmart Pay app's wallet.
I removed all the Walmart gift cards I had saved. I wasn't sure if the app was trying to use the gift cards.
I reconfirmed the CVV for the SYW card. I think this may be important. When buying online on the Walmart website, it will ask you to reconfirm the CVV of a saved credit card.
I also had other grocery items.
And it worked.
