Contact Methods

Send detailed inquiries to sellerhelp@walmart.com or submit through Seller Center.
Email works best for issues requiring documentation, screenshots, or detailed explanations.
Include your seller ID and relevant order or listing information in every message.
Live Chat Support Availability
Live chat support is available Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 9:30 PM Eastern Time.
Chat works best for urgent issues that need quick answers. You'll typically connect with an agent within a few minutes during normal hours.
Live chat support is available for urgent issues during business hours, while email support is better for complex issues requiring detailed explanations.

Choosing the Right Contact Method
Not sure which contact method to use? Here's a quick guide:
- Need a quick answer? Live chat
- Complex issue requiring documentation? Email
- Technical problem hard to explain? Phone callback
- Non-urgent question? Self-service resources
When you explain your issue clearly upfront—regardless of method—you'll get faster resolution.
Social Media
Walmart has a dedicated support presence on social media, which can be used for public relations concerns or escalations.
Tag @Walmart on Twitter or reach out via LinkedIn for visibility on unresolved issues.
This method is best for escalations after other channels haven't worked.
Walmart Phone Support and Callback Options
Walmart phone support is not available through a direct phone number. Instead, sellers must request a callback through the Seller Center Help menu.
How to request a callback:
- Log into Seller Center
- Click Help in the navigation bar
- Select your support category
- Choose "Request Callback" if available for your issue type
Requesting a callback for urgent issues is available but if you miss a callback, you must request a new one. Walmart does not leave voicemails or retry automatically.
Callbacks are available Monday through Friday during business hours. For weekend issues, use email or wait until Monday for a callback.
Phone support works best for technical problems that are difficult to explain in writing, or when you need real-time troubleshooting assistance.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Account Suspensions
If your account is suspended, check your email for a notice explaining the reason.
Common causes include policy violations, performance issues, or verification problems.
Submit an appeal through Seller Center with documentation addressing the specific issue.
Listing Errors
Listing errors often result from missing required attributes or category mismatches.
Review the error message in Seller Center and correct the flagged fields.
For persistent errors, contact support with the specific SKU and error code.
Payment Delays
Payments process according to Walmart's payment schedule.
Check your payment settings and verify your bank information is correct.
For missing payments, submit a case with the expected payment date and amount.
Shipping and Fulfillment Issues
Problems with shipping labels are common for new sellers.
If your shipping labels aren't generating correctly:
- Verify your ship-from address is complete
- Check that package dimensions are entered
- Confirm the carrier is enabled in your settings
For feedback on shipping performance, check your Seller Scorecard. Walmart tracks on-time delivery and provides specific metrics to help you improve.
Technical Problems with Seller Center
For technical problems like pages not loading or features not working:
- Clear your browser cache
- Try a different browser (Chrome recommended)
- Check Walmart's system status page
- File a support case if the issue persists
Include screenshots when reporting technical issues. This helps support diagnose the problem faster.
Tips for Faster Responses
Be Specific in Your Subject Line
A clear subject line helps support prioritize and route your case correctly.
Example: "WFS Inbound Shipment #12345 — Missing Units" is better than "Need Help."
Include All Relevant Details
Provide order numbers, SKUs, timestamps, and screenshots upfront.
This prevents back-and-forth requests for information.
Use the Correct Category
Selecting the right support category ensures your case reaches the appropriate team.
Miscategorized cases may experience delays.
Check Self-Service First
Many issues have documented solutions in the Help section.
Searching before submitting a case can save you time.
Follow Up Appropriately
If you haven't received a response within the stated timeframe, reply to your existing case.
Avoid opening duplicate cases, which can slow down resolution.
Keep Records
Save case numbers and correspondence for reference.
This helps if you need to escalate or reference previous interactions.
Communicate Professionally
Being polite and professional increases the chances of receiving a helpful response from Walmart support representatives.
Even if you're frustrated, keep your tone respectful and focus on the facts.
Provide Complete Details Upfront
Sellers should provide detailed information when submitting a support case to receive faster and more accurate responses.
Include order IDs, SKUs, screenshots, and a clear description of what happened vs. what you expected.
Avoid Duplicate Cases
Sellers should avoid multiple duplicate requests as this can slow down responses from Walmart Seller Support.
If you haven't heard back, reply to your existing case rather than opening a new one.
Be Specific and Provide Examples
When filing a case, clearly explain what happened and what you expected.
For example:
"Order #12345 was marked shipped on 1/15 but the customer says it hasn't arrived. Tracking shows delivered to wrong address. Requesting refund investigation."
This gives support everything they need without back-and-forth.
Reference Policies When Needed
For policy clarifications, reference the specific policy you're asking about. This shows you've done your research and helps support give you a precise answer.
Example: "Per the Prohibited Products Policy, I need clarification on whether [product type] is allowed for marketplace sellers."
Conclusion
Getting help from Walmart Seller Support doesn't have to be frustrating.
Start with self-service resources in Seller Center. Many common issues have documented solutions.
When you need direct support, choose the right contact method for your situation. Provide clear details upfront to minimize back-and-forth.
For complex or ongoing issues, keep records of all correspondence and case numbers.
With the right approach, you can resolve most seller issues quickly and get back to growing your Walmart Marketplace business.
