Walmart and Google Partner to Integrate AI Shopping Experience
Walmart and Google announced a collaboration on Sunday, january 11, 2026, to integrate artificial intelligence into the shopping experience. The partnership leverages Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol and combines Google’s Gemini AI tool with the product offerings of Walmart and Sam’s club.
“The transition from traditional web or app search to agent-led commerce represents the next great evolution in retail. We aren’t just watching the shift, we are driving it,” said John Furner, Walmart’s incoming CEO, in a news release.
Furner continued, “We want to help customers get what thay need and want, when and where they want it.Partnering with Google to bring the Walmart experience directly into Gemini is another step toward creating seamless shopping experiences for customers and members that are more intuitive and personal than ever before.”
Gemini will automatically include Walmart and Sam’s Club items when users request products. Customers can then purchase directly through Walmart or Sam’s Club via Gemini.The integration is expected to streamline the shopping process and offer a more personalized experience.
