Google's Express delivery service has just gained another big player in addition to Target and Costco: Walmart.
Soon, consumers will be able to buy items from the major retailer with their voice through Google Home or via the Google Express website or app and then have their purchase delivered to their home. That's made even better by the fact that the service now delivers for free, so long as the buyers meet a merchant's minimum purchase requirement. Unlike Amazon Prime, they don't even need to pay a membership fee.
Besides having thousands of items to choose from -- everything "from laundry detergent to Legos," the tech titan says - its clients can also have a personalized shopping experience by linking their existing Walmart account with Google.
After that, Google's voice control AI Assistant can let them know what size of detergent or kind of soda they chose last time they ordered whenever they make a new purchase. It's definitely a handy feature, especially if grocers are haphazardly adding things to their cart and haven't really made a definitive list of what to buy.
Unfortunately, Walmart won't be available on Google Express until sometime in late September. Buyers can sign up to receive a notification the moment they can start shopping from the store through the service, but they will have to make do with the other merchants for now.
