Boo,

Boo because they sold to Fandango? Walmart can't really control what happens to Vudu anymore.

VUDU customer service has been pretty good in my experience. I'd email them and see what they can do.

Applied automatically at checkout. It's easy to miss because it simply adjusts the list price instead of showing the original price minus 30%.

I had physical Fandango gift cards bought from Amazon in 2020 that worked on FandangoNow but are not accepted at and don't work at VUDU. So now unfortunately only useful for going to an actual theater facility.

I have a digital gift card I bought directly from Fandango in 2020 that is accepted by VUDU and can be stored in my account.

It worked for me.
BUT does anyone know if there's a way to get the discount on a second purchase, like applying a code?

Thanks OP. Though the 30% discount only works with one movie. Movie bundles and TV series are not eligible. Though you may be able to combine with the Mastercard promotion here:

I can confirm that I was not able to merge a second FandangoNow account into the same Vudu account. The first merge went through fine, but when I tried a second merge, I got an error message when entering the password for my Vudu account. It said, "Something went wrong, contact customer service."
Thanks and repped for your reply and being brave enough to try it. So it didn't hurt anything (it didn't take away any of your movies) but merging multiple accounts definitely doesn't work.

I found the same problem. According to the Vudu support group onc

e you migrate your account only FandangoNOW gift cards can be used for digital purchases. If you use your regular Fandango card before you migrate you will be fine. After you merge accounts you are sent to Vudu to complete the purchase and your non-"NOW" gift cards are worthless for any content.

I may have missed some of the small print on this when I accepted merging the accounts, but I think it's a big miss on the part of Vudu.

They stated it's not something they are looking to fix anytime soon.

yeah it's too bad.....I haven't merged yet so was hoping I could still burn some of those on FN, but both the website and app both redirect to VUDU, so not sure how one would make a purchase even if you haven't merged.

Same thing here. I knew I shouldn't have sat on that gift card for so long. What a crappy experience.

Wonder if they'll ever update the Vudu app UI for Android TV/Google TV. It looks like it's from 2010. Fandango was not known for having a great UI, so I am not hopeful.

Now let's merge Netflix, Prime, and the two Disney services into this, add Peacock, Discovery+, AMC, and CBS and ….

Oh crap. Did I just invent cable TV?

Yup, and that's going to be the problem going forward. Content that used to be available on cable or DirecTV or Uverse, etc. will be pulled and moved to their premium services.
