Why does the title say "select customers"? This is the standard feature for everyone with these cards. Rotating categories.
these days you can buy any gift card to anywhere or even a visa prepaid credit card which you can use anywhere. But for 5% I don't know if it's totally worth it for many things. You lose all the credit card benefits like extended warranty, the ability to chargeback. (And if you're me then you might lose the cards)
i mean if that works then technically you can buy gift cards to anywhere and get 5% off.

I don't think so. If you use PayPal the transaction on your card shows up as PayPal (this is why you can use PayPal key to pay for stuff online at places that don't take PayPal and still get the 5% bonus for PayPal)
Can you use Paypal instore too, setting Paypal Key as the payment?

You can add PayPal Key to Walmart Pay in your Walmart app to pay at Walmart stores.

Maybe other merchants' app also accept PayPal Key that I didn't know of.

October 1st: Still can't create a new Paypal key. Several messages to message center and they claim they'll call me or email me a resolution, never do

I connected Google Pay to my PayPal with the funding source in PayPal set to my Flex card. So I theoretically can use my phone in store to pay and have this qualify for the 5%...

Has anyone else tried this? I'm going to give it a shot with a purchase this week

I bet it's some algorithm thing. Thanks for looking into it.

Maybe if enough of us bug Paypal, they will bump it up the priority list
Does anyone know how to get an invite to Key, or at least get bumped up in whatever queue exists

Here is my experience

I had paypal set to Chase Freedom as my default payment. I connected Google Pay to my Paypal. I used Google Pay at Aldi's. It ended up using the bank ACH however

In Kroger Pay app I added Paypal MasterCard key directly as the default payment. That worked when I used it at Kroger Self Checkout

In Bp.me I had set up Paypal + Discover last quarter. And it worked by using Discover card for 5%.
I deleted that payment added Paypal again. Chase showed up as default payment while linking. The transaction is pending authorization for the last two days

I have been able to use MasterCard Paypal key in other online sites for bill and other payments as well.

Nice Thanks, I don't have any PayPal cards so that won't work for me. I usually only use PayPal on Ebay..

So it's a bit strange trying to get this to work properly.

Yes I have bought gift cards from Walmart using CC multiple times.
Do note all Gift cards have an activation fee of $5-$7. In my experience GC sold at Walmart have the lowest activation fee as compared to other places (Target, CVS etc)
Be sure to check the fees.
I saw some VISA gift cards that had $5.94 fee (WalmartGift.com) and some with the $4.94 fee (VanillaGift.com) .
I know that $1 isn't a big deal, but I prefer not pay it if I don't need to.

The setup works as far as Google Pay, Sending to Paypal and Paypal sending to Chase. I made a purchase on Sept 30 that went through with no issues.. Unfortunately I haven't had any purchases so far in October to see if the 5% will be given or not.

If you are expecting Walmart Supercenter to show 5% for groceries, you will be sad.

Walmart has always been 5% when the category is Walmart.
