1. After buying the phone in Walmart, you can pay off phone via ATT online chat. For Verizon you have to go to a store.
2. ATT activation fee can be voided instantly from the bill by clicking on "Don't recognize this fee" when the bill arrives even if it's more than 3 days from activation which will mostly happen if you ship it to your house.
3. ATT version can be instantly unlocked using eSIM swap. It's YMMV but for most people it works if you follow the instructions below and do the transfer of the eSIM properly from iPhone to another phone.
4. Even if the eSIM swap does not work I have seen some getting the phone unlocked by chatting with CS once the phone is paid off. That also is YMMV
Sim swap instructions
1. There are two timelines for the cancellation. If you cancel a line before 3 days it was active then the activation fee is waived. If you cancel it within 14 days from activation under buyers remorse then no bill is charged but activation fees need to be paid. But as mentioned earlier that fee can be voided instantly by clicking on "Don't recognize this fee" in the bill even after 3 days.
2. You can use SIM swap method method to unlock the device.
3. When you receive the phone activate it on ATT with the eSIM. Make sure it shows up on myATT app/in the web so ATT knows and registers the IMEI in the network. Then transfer the eSIM to another unlocked phone. Make sure you are transferring the eSIM without making a new one so no ATT involvement. Reboot the other phone, make some calls and make sure this unlocked phone is now showing under the line in app/web portal.
4. Now go to ATT unlock portal https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/ (in incognito mode) and then choose not an ATT customer and use the IMEI of iPhone nd submit an unlock request using a different email, phone number, name etc not associated with the ATT account.
5. Confirm the unlock request email and receive the unlock code.
6. ONLY CANCEL THE LINE AFTER YOU HAVE UNLOCKED THE PHONE. OTHERWISE, YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK IT ANYMORE.
Edit: Forgot to mention you will have to try the SIM swap roughly 24 hours after paying off the phone. The unlock portal syncs with the billing system every night or so.

I did this deal today again in store.again I blame ProudToBeAnIndian.
Online and instore experience are not seamless. Due to fraud protection in place, things are tedious to work with. Verizon ,specially is difficult to deal with as you have to send live photo along with ID Photos and cross your finger that everything go ok.
In store experience today was worst(due to new employee and employee wasn't paying attention.employee processed 3 orders on my name , so credit was run 3 times. But for sure it's a soft credit check). It took them 1 hour 50 minutes to complete everything. Anyways I was out of store with a $500 Gift card.
Paid full amount less $1 on Verizon account.
I tried following last two times. I am not sure if it will work this time. Will go home and try myself.Again YMMV
pay off with credit card
You need to establish a Verizon account
Go to Account, Bill, Payment methods
Add a credit card
If you have other Verizon lines, make sure you verify your Auto Pay is still pointing to the bank account
From a NON Verizon phone, call 800-837-4966
Enter the phone number for the line you want to pay off
Tell the robo attendant "pay off device"
Robo attendant will confirm the payoff amount ($) and if you would like to process on credit card ending in xxxx (what you have on file)
* Say yes, and that's it.
Disconnecting Verizon line
Login to your Verizon account
Start a chat
Request an agent
If asked, about plans/service
Say disconnect line
They will try to offer you other options or to disconnect at a later date
Insist you need the line disconnected now
If asked for a reason, say you cannot give them one
Verify total under Account, Bill, Next bill estimate
anyone know do we get activation $40 back from Verizon if we cancel the line in less than 3 days? Last time I got $40 back when I cancelled within 3 days. Not sure what is latest policy
Hoping to get it unlocked upon receipt with an eSIM swap.
