Community Reviews

This Walmart phone deal pairs an iPhone 17 Pro with a $500 Walmart gift card and carrier financing through Verizon or AT&T, with in-store activation often highlighted as the smoothest path. The strongest draw is the low effective cost, especially for people keeping a legacy plan or buying from Walmart and Sam's Club. The main catches are carrier and plan restrictions, possible order cancellations, and the need to finance through the carrier before payoff or unlock timing kicks in. It is most appealing if you can work within the plan rules and wait out the financing terms.

Common Questions (8)

  • You can pay the device off early, but the line cannot be cancelled before the balance is fully paid. The payoff may need to wait until the next billing cycle, so this is not an immediate buy-and-cancel deal.

    ProudToBeAnIndianAmusedMaid716371jkimDealMayhem

  • You have to finance the phone through Verizon and pay sales tax at checkout, then the first installment shows on your first bill. The Walmart eGift card is emailed later, often around 3 weeks for online orders, while in-store activation can send it within 24 hours.

    371jkim371jkim371jkimhaggler

  • Yes, it can be fully unlocked after the device is paid off. Some buyers also report Verizon unlock timing around 60 days on older purchases, but this deal is being treated as unlockable after payoff.

    371jkimKarthikDMAvocadorableDealMayhem

  • Yes. The deal shows as available both online and in-store in the Walmart app, and in-store availability was reported starting at 6 AM. Some stores only stock the base 256GB model, so larger storage or certain colors may be online-only.

    KarthikDMramanujam92DickensCiderjunkbrain

  • Yes. If you have a long-standing AT&T line, the phone may be unlockable as soon as it is paid off, even before the usual 30-day wait.

    ramanujam92KarthikDMKarthikDMsaverdan

  • No. The offer does not work with Verizon's Simplicity plan, and some orders on that plan were cancelled.

    George_P_BurdellsaverdanFantasticApparel386

  • Yes. The Walmart eGift card can also be used at Sam's Club, which makes it useful if you shop there regularly.

    ProudToBeAnIndianMahmoud1994

  • Yes. Upgrading through Walmart can keep an existing Verizon plan, including older legacy plans with perks like free Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+.

I am also getting the unavailable error. Probably not setup correctly on Walmart's backend yet. Try again later.

How much was the effective cost at checkout? Was the $500 gift card deducted/adjusted immediately after payment, or is it provided separately after the purchase?

You have to finance it through Verizon. You pay the sales tax (depending on where live) during checkout. Then on your first bill, you will see the first installment. You can also pay the entire amount off.

The egift card to emailed to you at a later date. I did it this deal last year with the 15 pro max. It took about 3 weeks before I got the gift card. I am assuming it will also be around that timeline this year.

So, the gift card can't be used to pay off the remaining device balance, right?

Local Walmart phone guy told me about this same deal last year. Works for att Verizon or tmo. It's not a prepaid deal it's something called postpaid? It's runs your credit if it's a new account. For in store you get the gift card instantly. This is a freakin steal of a deal!

Looks like they fixed it. I was able to order a Verizon iPhone 17 Pro.

I did see that the gift card is sent to you instantly when you make the purchase and activate in-store. But I don't mind waiting a few weeks for the gift card if I can save a trip to Walmart.

Has your order been confirmed? Also, how much was the effective cost at checkout?

Yes, I got a confirmation email. I paid $111.17 in taxes and fees (California charges tax based on the full retail price plus a recycling fee).

If you're planning to open a new line, do y'all remember whether VZW or AT&T does a soft pull for new accounts?

I think it is a soft check. I opened up couple new lines few months ago. When my credit was ran, I didn't get any notification from my credit monitoring services.

Keep in mind. If you upgrade through Walmart as least for Verizon, you can keep your existing plan. I am on an old legacy plan that gives me free Disney+ , Hulu, and ESPN+. I am holding onto this plan until they pry it out of my hands lol.

Can someone explain the process from beginning to end on how you purchase one of these, then proceed to pay it off and leave it unlocked?

I want to get one and move to an MVNO that uses AT&T in my area. I'm currently on T-Mobile, but the service here stinks. I'm hearing AT&T is good in my area, and I'm happy with trying an MVNO like Consumer Cellular or Red Pocket.

But - I want a new device. What steps do I take to make this deal work for me?
