Question. We sell aftermarket automotive parts, no upcs and over 30,000 parts. Is there a UPC exemption for walmart, similar to Amazon’s exemption?

[image] Default_Username: Is there a UPC exemption for walmart We do have UPC exemptions. Recently sellers are getting approved within 48-hours. Do you have a Walmart account yet? [Marketplace Learn | GTIN/UPC Exemption] ( Marketplace Learn )

Hi Tyler, @WALMART.COM_EXPERT , and others We have been a registered Walmart seller for a while, but it has been quite some time since we added another item. I am having difficulty in locating our existing GTIN exemption or requesting a New exemption. Am I missing something…? I do not see the opt…

I found this and waiting to see if my uploaded excel works using GTIN and CUSTOM in the required boxes. [Step 4]

Didn’t work. I guess I need to contact support. [Darn need to contact support]

Looks like it’s saying your exemption is expired and you have to request it again. Honestly clearer then most Amazon errors

That is a better error response than normal. Spec sheet 5.0 came out about 6 months ago. Looks like you didn’t get approval since then. It should be a fairly straight forward process to get.

I opened a support case. Out of curiosity, @WALMART.COM_EXPERT , which version of support do you recommend on the Wal-Mart Seller Center Support? Phone, Chat, or Email? Does the email generally provide better information since the employee is not rushed to respond as quickly?

I can answer that (in my experience), I often use email because I don’t have time to chat or talk on the phone all day about issues-it does not seem to provide any better service or understanding of the topic you are looking to resolve.

Regardless of the platform, I always have better results (low bar, though) when I get someone on the phone. I have the power to make them stay there and listen to me until they finally understand my problem, and then make them stay on the line until they at least make some attempt to resolve it. Wit…

I believe upthread it was mentioned by @ModernSwitch that there is a process, at least for handmade:

Not sure if it applies outside of handmade
