Etsy Payments Policy Update October 2025: What Sellers Need to Know
Etsy has announced important updates to its new Etsy Payments Policy, effective October 9, 2025,
Walmart has halved the cost of its Walmart+ annual membership to just $49, available until Dec. 2, as part of a major holiday push. With free trial options as well, this price cut is expected to bring in a surge of new Walmart+ members, creating a larger pool of customers actively looking to maximize their perks.
For Walmart sellers, this discounted membership fee can lead to a golden opportunity to reach a high-intent, value-conscious audience, especially as the holiday season is shortened this year.
A significant perk of Walmart+ membership is early access to three-holiday sales events on Nov. 11, Nov. 25, and Dec. 1. During these events, Walmart+ members can start shopping hours before non-members. Hence, this gives you a chance to showcase your products to an exclusive audience of eager holiday shoppers. Additionally, you can capture the attention of early-bird buyers who are motivated to snap up deals before the general public by offering popular items or bundling products in trending categories.
Walmart+ membership perks such as free delivery, dining discounts, fuel savings, and streaming access make it an appealing offer, encouraging members to shop more frequently on Walmart’s platform. You can make the most of this momentum by ensuring your listings stand out. Moreover, products that qualify for Walmart+ perks are likely to gain traction, especially in a condensed shopping period. With Thanksgiving on Nov. 28 and Christmas fast approaching, you can count on a massive holiday rush.
Walmart’s new AI-powered shopping tools, including visual search, personalized recommendations, and enhanced customer support, can lead to a smoother, more engaging shopping experience for customers. Leverage these innovations by optimizing your listings with quality images, accurate keywords, and product information, helping Walmart’s AI better connect your products to the right customers.
With only 27 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, Walmart’s holiday initiatives provide an ideal chance for you to increase visibility and drive sales by aligning your listings with Walmart’s strategies.
Take advantage of the seasonal rush and boost your sales in a shorter holiday window with Walmart’s holiday initiatives.
