Why Walmart now

Walmart marketplace was ~$120B GMV in 2025 and growing 22%/yr. Their Walmart Fulfillment Service (WFS) is structurally similar to FBA but cheaper for most categories — and the competitive density is still half of Amazon's.

Take rates

Apparel: WFS 8% vs FBA 17% — Walmart wins. Electronics: WFS 8% vs FBA 8% — tie. Beauty: WFS 15% vs FBA 17% — Walmart wins but margin is thin. Run both unless one is clearly margin-destroying.
