TreviPay expands Pay by Invoice availability for Walmart Business customers.

TreviPay expands Pay by Invoice availability for Walmart Business customers. The general availability gives eligible organizations more flexibility with net 30-day terms, a dedicated business line of credit and streamlined reconciliation OVERLAND PARK, Kan.-TreviPay, a global B2B payments infrastructure partner, today announced the general availability of Pay By Invoice for eligible Walmart Business customers. Following an initial pilot, the expanded availability gives more organizations a new way to manage purchasing and payments online and in Walmart stores. Walmart Business Pay By Invoice provides net 30-day terms, a dedicated business line of credit and detailed invoicing built into the Walmart Business purchasing experience. Powered by TreviPay, Walmart Business Pay By Invoice is designed to give organizations greater flexibility in how they manage business purchases and payments. Eligible customers can get what they need and pay on net 30-day terms, helping them preserve cash flow for other priorities while keeping operations moving. Purchasing controls and payment reconciliation also help organizations share purchasing responsibilities while maintaining oversight and keeping purchase activity, invoices, payments, returns and refunds organized in one place. "Retailers have a significant opportunity to build stronger relationships with business buyers by recognizing that their purchasing needs are different from those of consumers," said Brandon Spear, CEO of TreviPay. "Business buyers need payment choice, purchasing controls and terms that align with how their organizations manage cash flow. When retailers make those capabilities part of the purchasing experience, they make it easier for business customers to buy from them and come back again and again." The general availability follows an initial rollout of the TreviPay-powered solution. During that period, Walmart Business customers reported a 90% customer satisfaction score with the program. The results reinforce the value of giving business customers greater flexibility and control over how they purchase and pay. Pay By Invoice can support organizations with complex purchasing and recordkeeping needs such as: * Schools, colleges and universities can centralize purchasing records across departments or campuses to support budgeting, compliance requirements and audit preparation. * Nonprofits can organize purchasing across programs, events or grant-funded initiatives, while government agencies and public sector organizations can maintain purchasing and payment records to support procurement, financial reporting, compliance and audits. * Businesses can purchase inventory and supplies but enjoy 30 days to pay, thereby preserving cash flow for other expenses, and purchasing controls helping owners and managers share buying responsibilities while maintaining oversight. That flexibility can also influence where business buyers chose to purchase. TreviPay research found 51% of business buyers would switch merchants if another provider offered more flexible net terms. TreviPay will also bring together leading brands, including Walmart Business, at its signature Crossroads B2B Payments Conference, Nov. 8-10, 2026, in Kansas City, Missouri. Crossroads provides inspiration and premium networking for commerce, growth, finance and tech leaders to shape the future of B2B commerce and payments. About TreviPay TreviPay, The Pay by Invoice Company(TM), is the global B2B payments infrastructure partner for manufacturers, retailers, travel companies and banks. With its fully managed platform, intelligent apps, and 40 years of buyer intelligence, Finopotamus LLC help buyers buy, and sellers grow and get paid faster.

AdFury unlocks agentic content for brands on Walmart.

AdFury unlocks agentic content for brands on Walmart. Self-service solution develops video carousels, charts and other rich media for a brand's existing product display page. October 20, 2026. 11:56 AM ROGERS, Ark. - AdFury LLC today announced the availability of its rich media tool, giving brands a self-service, agentic feature for enhanced, below-the-fold content for products selling at Walmart. The AI-native tool builds fully compliant rich media or expanded content directly from a brand's existing product page, the company said. The self-service, agentic rich media solution saves brands up to 75% of the time in developing enhanced content and can result in up to a 40% lift in conversions from product pages, according to the company, which introduced its AdFury platform in 2025. AdFury allows brands to forego the investment in additional creative production work, development resources or time in managing files, the company said. AdFury's agentic-rich media tool pulls existing imagery, product descriptions and product attributes from a brand's live product detail page to instantly create content from 10 pre-designed modules including feature set, before and after, FAQ, comparison table, image carouse and interactive product tour/hotspot. Each module is validated against Walmart's OmniSpec APIs and Item Spec 5.0 requirements before being submitted. Leveraging existing hero creative and content to expand messaging "Every retail brand knows it needs rich media to increase conversions from any PDP, especially Walmart, but it takes time and budget they don't have," said Eric Howerton, co-founder and chief growth officer of AdFury. "With our rich media tool, we give brands an easy, effective and creative way to tell their story to consumers, across seasons and channels, in 90 seconds and at one hundredth of the cost." Added Toby Willse, chief media officer, AdFury, "Brands, retailers and agency clients can now effortlessly build bottom-of-the-funnel content, leveraging their existing hero creative and content to expand messaging below the fold. This used to take our clients weeks and a separate budget to complete. Now they can build and publish a full set of compliant modules in a single afternoon, freeing them up to focus more on future campaigns and strategy." AdFury's rich media tool is now live for Walmart. Integrations with Amazon and additional retailers are in development, extending the same self-service, agentic workflow to the other retailers where brands and sellers already do business.
