Walmart Volt is Becoming Scintilla In‑Store: A Smarter Way to Get Work Done in Walmart Stores
Experience the next evolution of the mobile app—supporting field representatives with streamlined in-store performance
Walmart Volt has evolved: Welcome, Scintilla In-Store.
Field teams working in Walmart stores are already familiar with Volt. It’s the mobile app used by third-party field representatives to check in and out, access readiness and compliance information, and complete tasks on behalf of suppliers in Walmart stores. However, in-store work can often be complex for field representatives, and outdated workflows can slow down everyday tasks. It’s time for the app to better support in-store success.
Enter: Scintilla In-Store
Scintilla is Walmart’s integrated insights ecosystem, administered by the Walmart Data Ventures team. Named after the Latin word for ‘spark’, Scintilla reflects the idea that even a small insight can drive meaningful business impact. The ecosystem transforms granular data into actionable intelligence that supports smarter decisions for suppliers and the teams who support them.
Scintilla In-Store now brings that same Walmart ecosystem into our physical stores by connecting data to execution where it matters most: in the field. Behind the scenes, the platform uses the same item and modular information Walmart store associates rely on, enabling field reps to complete supplier-assigned tasks and support in-stock execution for Walmart’s customers.
One Data-Powered Tool to Do It All
Built around real Volt user feedback, Scintilla In-Store brings essential tasks, tools, and information into a centralized, easy-to-use, insights-powered mobile app. This enables supplier field representatives to prepare more effectively, complete store visits more efficiently, and improve oversight of product availability, resulting in more consistent field execution and a stronger experience for Walmart customers
Features That Make This Possible:
- Simpler, More Intuitive Experience
A refreshed design and personalized homepage surfaces what matters most for each user, making key tools easier to find. - Smarter Features for Faster Fieldwork
New capabilities streamline store visits and support on-the-go performance, including:- Improved visibility into item, store, and modular details
- In-app to-do list with notes and reminders tied to scanned items
- Floating scanner button for faster access throughout the experience
- Walmart-Trusted Workflows
Certifications remain embedded in the app, with digital authorization badges that show a field rep is approved to work, building trust and security across stores and allowing more time for action. - Guided Onboarding
First-time users are supported with step-by-step walkthroughs that introduce key updates and features, helping them get started quickly with minimal additional training. - Shared Foundation for the Future
Scintilla In-Store aligns field reps and Walmart associates on shared tools within a scalable platform that grows as needs evolve.
See how Scintilla In-Store supports field teams from start to finish during each store visit, helping suppliers and Walmart work better together.
The Walmart Volt app will update to Scintilla In-Store beginning in late February. Field reps can simply open the app, log in, and begin using Scintilla In-Store—no download required. (Note: If automatic updates are turned off, the field rep should check for updates manually.)
