Earn Cash Back when you shop with your linked card at all participating Walmart stores. Offer valid for a limited time and may be removed or modified by Rakuten at any time. Offer not valid for gift card purchases. Purchases are subject to applicable store policies. Debit card purchases must be processed as credit in order to be eligible for Cash Back. When using your debit card, do not enter your PIN. Only US-issued payment cards are eligible to enroll and earn Cash Back. In-Store offers not valid for online purchases and may not be combined with other Rakuten rewards. US stores only. Offer not valid at locations in US territories. Offer may be displayed on multiple websites but is redeemable only once per qualifying transaction. If you link to the same offer on more than one site, your qualifying transaction will only be eligible for rewards or benefits associated with the offer through the most recently linked site. A linked offer is good for 1 hour after initial redemption. After such time the offer must be re-linked prior to your next purchase. A linked offer that has not been redeemed will automatically expire on the date the offer itself ends. Cash Back earned will be paid with your next eligible Rakuten Big Fat Check!

DP – I tried to use a prepaid card for this deal. I made 2 purchases and received nothing. I used my USAlliance card and received the cash back on 2 out of 3 transactions. I don’t know what happened on the the 3rd transaction.

I used a 5% grocery card, but do have the 6% rakuten MR points. So I get a little bit of both.
