Walmart:
1) you have to make sure Paypal is not a saved method of payment in your wallet. If so, go into your account and remove it
2) When you are in checkout, uncheck the box that says Remember Paypal as a payment option.
CHASE CARDS NOT ELIGIBLE
Here is what was sent to my message folder on Paypal. Not the A.I. chatbox.

I have checked your account and see that there is a purchase with Walmart.com for $XXX.xx USD using Pay in 4 and it is completed.Please be assured you are eligible for offer and you will get the points for it. Also, I would suggest you to not make the complete payment at this moment to avoid any issue with the offer. You can make the complete payment after 14 days. |

I've also answered quite a few other questions unrelated to this that didn't involve AI at all.
See:

I also ran the terms through a different AI engine, and it agrees with me also:
This caps any single Eligible Purchase at $250 in rewards (25,000 Points), regardless of the rate (5% or 20%).
At 5%, that means rewards on up to $5,000 per purchase (5% of $5,000 = $250).
At 20%, that means rewards on up to $1,250 per purchase (20% of $1,250 = $250).
It explicitly ties to "each" and "per" purchase, so the cap is transaction-specific, not an aggregate across multiple purchases. There's no language limiting you to one such maxed-out purchase.
How This Applies to the 20% Special Offer Period (Nov 17–Dec 8, 2025)
The terms state: "Eligible Participants will earn Points equivalent to 20% cash back on one or more Eligible Purchases up to $1,250 spent."
The "$1,250 spent" phrasing is ambiguous on its own—it could be read as a total across all purchases or per purchase.
But combining it with the "maximum of 25,000 Points... per Eligible Purchase" line, it's clear the $1,250 limit (and thus $250 reward) applies per transaction.
Official PayPal help docs confirm this: "There is no cap on how much cash back you can earn in total over the duration of the campaign" (beyond the global pool), and they note "caps per transaction given loan maximums." Independent deal trackers also interpret it as "$1,250 in spend per transaction," allowing multiple uses.
Bottom line for 20%: No total per-participant limit beyond what's possible via multiple purchases. You could theoretically earn $250 per qualifying purchase, as long as each is ≤$1,250 and uses Pay in 4 or Pay Monthly. (E.g., two $1,250 purchases = $500 total rewards at 20%.) Pay in 4 maxes at $1,500 per purchase anyway, so you'd hit the reward cap at $1,250 spend there.
Even though he was confident, I called back and solicited yet another rep's thoughts. They transferred me to the approrpriate department and Jane echoed what Martin had said. It's a transactional limit, not a total spend cap. She said the cap for total transactions is $5,000.
FWIW, I also ran it through Perplexity (yet another LLM that you may or may not have tried) and it also spit out that same result -- $1,250 cap of getting the full 20% per transaction; aggregate cap is $5,000.
From Perplexity...
Even though I was frozen from a pending charge, Pay in 4 popped back up to me and I threw another $1k into Best Buy! It's now gone again, along with Pay Monthly. I now have over $250 worth of pending points.

Edit: Denial message "Total balance on your outstanding Pay in 4 loans or the Pay in 4 loan amount you requested is too high."
It the was the same amount as each previous order. I wonder if I just hit a limit? I didn't check my spending power before hand so maybe that's it, it's blank now but I could've sworn it was at like $1300 earlier.

this is going to ruin the deal the more people keep asking
Second, you can run it through AI all you want. Noone has any idea if Paypal will change the terms and consider your points invalid after $250 total. Seems like this a complete clusterf*ck as far as PayPal is concerned.
