Walmart is Offering One Hour Delivery Up to 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve

BENTONVILLE, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The countdown to Christmas just got a whole lot less stressful for last minute shoppers. Fresh off a record-breaking Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Walmart is bringing the magic of fast, easy shopping to customers by offering Express Delivery in as fast as one hour on orders placed up to 5 p.m. local time on Christmas Eve*, perfect for last-minute gifts, ingredients and holiday essentials.

“More people are using Express Delivery to get their items faster, and December is when it truly shines,” said David Guggina, Chief eCommerce Officer, Walmart U.S. “No one delivers for customers like Walmart, from the first Holiday deal to the final gift on Christmas Eve.”

Now, Walmart is making it even easier to get items fast by introducing a new “Get it Now” option in the Walmart app. With this feature, customers can view an estimated number of minutes until an order arrives at their doorstep, and in one tap, place the order instantly, eliminating guesswork, speeding up decision-making and streamlining the entire shopping experience. New customers can get $10 off their first 3 orders of pickup or delivery when they use promo code HOLIDAY10.**

Customers nationwide can place orders right up to the wire:

Express Delivery: Order until 5 p.m. local time on Dec. 24 for delivery in as fast as one hour.
Same-day pickup & delivery: Order until 12 p.m. local time on Dec. 24.
Standard shipping: Order until 12:30 p.m. local time on Dec. 23 for arrival by Christmas Day.

Walmart’s delivery capabilities are getting faster nationwide, now reaching 95% of U.S. households in under three hours, and with later deadlines and easier ordering, customers can get what they need exactly when they need it this holiday season.
