Citibank, N.A. (Citi) is pleased to partner with Wal-Mart to provide our Enhanced Open Account program to Wal-Mart's suppliers. To support Wal-Mart’s payments to you, their valued suppliers, on an Open Account basis, Citibank, N.A. is poised to provide the financial support and trade processing expertise you will need to support your business. As the world's largest financial institution with an extensive global presence, Citi can offer a wide range of processing and finance solutions. Some of the highlights of this program include the following:

  • Payment under our program is fast and simple. You have the option to physically present the needed original documents to Citi at any one of our trade windows.
  • Through the use of Enhanced Open Account you will receive a Wal-Mart Trade Acceptance, a preferred receivable instrument. It provides you with the flexibility to sell it to Citi (at Citi's discretion), on a discounted basis (using a preferred rate) or to hold it until maturity.
  • The option to sell your receivable to Citi provides you with a new source of liquidity, typically at a lower cost than you receive today.
  • The simplicity of the program requires no upfront legal agreements and no account opening to join. There is only a simple onboarding process.
  • The non-recourse sale of Wal-Mart's Trade Acceptance to Citi allows for prompt payment without any credit utilization on your part.
  • Additional program details are provided throughout this website. We look forward to supporting your trade needs.
