This is a new thread for 2018. The previous discussion can be found here.
As of Nov 11, 2020, Meta gebits are getting declined when used for MO/BP purchases at MC/SD. New limit appears to be $99 per swipe. READ the posts below and add a data point with details. USB and GD gift cards do not seem to be affected.
DETAILS:
As of Dec 2019, WM BP in-store is reportedly affected by the $8000 total limit across all cards.
As of Nov 1, 2018, WM Billpay made via the WM app is limited to a total of $8000 total per person to all accounts per rolling 30 days.
Sep 13 2021 :If WM App is updated with no money services , then use the following for Android phone to get the working version.
https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type...ge=1&s=walmart
My working version is 21.12 (21120123)
Fyr : https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/0...n-app-android/
This workaround no longer works.
Bill Pay cannot be done at a regular register. BP must be done at Customer Service/Returns or at the Money Center in stores that have it.
WM offers two BP services: CheckFreePAY and MoneyGram. The cashier can initiate CheckFreePAY by selecting Money Services followed by Bill Pay on the register for a fee of $1-1.88. Moneygram is $4.99.
ONLY 4 successful debit card swipes can pay for a transaction. ONLY 5 payments per 16 digit account number per rolling 30 days.
CheckFreePay (800) 676-6148. - Look up payments using CC number and time of transaction ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BP by phone number lookup- Once your CFP account is set up, you can add CC. When you want to BP give them your phone# to look up your account under Money Services. They often get confused and think you want MG, but just say it is under Money Services. Make sure you get 2 receipts, one from WM and a small one from CFP showing the CC# and Biller name you paid.
WM App - The Money Services works in express lane for Bill Pay.
Receipt tips: If you don't get a receipt and they have to print you one, make sure the CC you paid appears on the printed receipt. If not on receipt, call CFP with the manager to verify there is no payment processing. They can cancel any transactions and pay you in cash right away. If they cancel the transaction and their cash drawer opens, that means they should pay you in cash, if it doesn't open, the money will probably return to your cards. Not sure what happens on the same day? Watch their drawer when they cancel the transaction to see if it opens. If they say the money will return to your DC, make sure to write down the managers name in case it doesn't.
Payments: Most cc can be paid 5 times by Visa/MC and 5 times by the issuing bank in rolling 30 days with a total of 10. There might be an 8K limit per rolling 30 days starting Oct 2018.
BUSINESS DAY transaction completion time is 18:59:59 EST (Holidays change post day)

Tuesday BEFORE 7:00PM arrives Wednesday
Wednesday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Thursday
Thursday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Friday
Friday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Monday
But when a next-day payment will post and be visible depends upon the CC issuer.

Choose to pay by Visa/MC card issuer OR by issuing bank - see the 2 sections below.

Clarification
From the Wiki: " Payments: Most cc can be paid 5 times by Visa/MC and 5 times by the issuing bank in rolling 30 days with a total of 10. "
Does this mean (a) I can pay 5 times via app at Walmart and 5 times NOT using app at Walmart? Or (b) that my credit card will allow 10 TOTAL payments per month, via any means? Thanks

For us to find out if the $8K cap on b/p is being enforced per account, DH used his app account and paid the CC that he's AU and the one I wasn't able to pay yesterday. Payment went through and so did the other CC rejected for payment yesterday. Now, I just have to figure out the date they base the rolling 30 days. How I wish it was by calendar month (sigh). I'm glad we've drained all we need to.

What's the difference between paying b@rclays & m@stercard if you have the arrival+? Are you differentiating them because you have two different cards?

WM new csr messed up. I tried to make BP but csr didn’t know how to split payment so I left without being charged anything. Few hrs later l realized the payment was sent anyway. Not sure if they cancel the payment later or contact me when the drawer is 2k short. Anyone with similar experience?

Totally up to you but that is the difference between a crooked guy trying to steal from the CSR (WM) and us (MS guys), that is the whole point, try to show them that we are not what they think we are, we are just there for the points and sure why not, some cash but we don't steal from them.
Just my 2 cents

Anyone know yet whether MG payments to AmEx cards are affected by the 8k limit? I got hit by the limit over the weekend,. Yesterday, I made a new account with my passport details (used different address and phone number - CSR did request to see it when I first scanned phone) and did 2x 1998.50 payments to BofA CC. Today I did 2x 1995.01 to AmEx-Next Day. Will report back if I can do more tomorrow but I certainly hope so. The 8k change is a real bummer (at least until I figure out how to get more WM accounts) but if AmEx BP is uncapped that is at least a silver lining (although I'm only interested in about 130k of total AmEx MS next year (RIP SPG AmEx, used to do 50-70k/month a few years ago in my WM's golden era)).

CSP was declined at local WM
I tried my chase CC at my local WM, and the transaction did not go thru towards my rent. WM person said that they do not take payments thru CC,
I also called the CFP # 8006766148 to see if they allow CC payments - initially the person said yes and later said no so i am confused if this option works.
Can someone let me know what i am doing wrong
TIA
