Walmart to Enable Bitcoin Payments Through OnePay Cash in New Crypto App with Zerohash Partnership

CNBC reported on October 21 that Walmart is examining the prospect of accepting cryptocurrency payments through its fintech arm, OnePay Cash. The plan envisions crypto-enabled checkout within Walmart’s mobile app, signaling a potential shift toward mainstream digital-asset adoption by a major retailer.

OnePay, a Walmart-owned fintech platform, is expected to roll out in-app crypto transactions and custody services later this year, enabling purchases with Bitcoin and Ethereum. The rollout is being developed in partnership with Zerohash, which will supply the custody and security infrastructure.

This development reflects Walmart’s strategic move into digital assets and underscores the importance of risk controls and regulatory compliance as retailers explore crypto payments for everyday shoppers.
