Loyalty Pricing Intelligence: Walmart+ vs Prime

Introduction

As competition between Walmart+ and Amazon Prime intensifies, one of the most strategic levers for customer retention is loyalty-based pricing. However, these special prices are often gated behind logins or exclusive app views, making it difficult for brands to track and respond to them. Loyalty-based pricing intelligence has become crucial for understanding and reacting to these hidden offers.

Actowiz Solutions helped a U.S. national retail client monitor loyalty-only pricing to understand pricing gaps, offer benchmarking, and member vs non-member visibility.

Objectives

Extract and compare loyalty (Walmart+ and Prime) prices vs public prices.
Detect member-exclusive discounts, early deals, and hidden offers.
Track price patterns over time for 250 SKUs across 10 metro ZIP codes.
Enable pricing, sales, and marketing teams with actionable data.

Challenges

Login-based access made it harder to retrieve member prices.
Session simulation required authenticated environments.
Some prices change dynamically based on cart behavior or order frequency.

Actowiz’s Solution Strategy

1. Loyalty Session Simulation:

Created authenticated user sessions for Walmart+ and Amazon Prime.
Captured page source and API response diffs for logged-in vs guest users.

2. SKU Matching & Data Tagging:

Tracked brand vs private label pricing by platform.
Categorized prices as:

👥 Member-only
🌐 Publicly visible
⚡ Early-access deal

3. Temporal Monitoring:

Collected data every 3 hours for each SKU x ZIP x user state.
Identified short-lived deals available only to loyalty users.
