There are 2 ways to add a transaction to your account:

1. Scan the QR on a receipt with the Walmart app

2. Use the Walmart app to make a purchase in store using WalmartPay or Scan and Go

You’re having the Walmart app to log purchases. How is this unexpected?

Just for clarification, I want to stress that I have never used the Walmart app. That is why it is unexpected.

How did they link your purchase to your account then? If they are linking accounts through credit card numbers that is pretty bad, anyone who has used that card for an online purchase can see any other purchases made with it.

That is one of my concerns, too. I think that they must have used the CC info.
