Walmart to enable Apple Pay and Google Pay via tap-to-pay starting August 24

Walmart will begin letting customers pay with Apple Pay or Google Pay at select Walmart and Sam’s Club locations starting August 24, 2026, with broader rollout to all U.S. stores by the end of the year and gas stations by mid-2027. The move ends Walmart’s long absence from NFC payments, which followed earlier attempts like Walmart Pay and the CurrentC saga, as the company says Tap to Pay will give customers more payment options.

Stripe Eyes PayPal Takeover: A Potential $53B Merger to Reshape Payments

Stripe and private equity firm Advent International are in talks to acquire PayPal, after a July bid valued PayPal at about $53 billion ($60.50 per share), with a deal reportedly possible in the coming weeks. A merger would create one of the largest online payment players, potentially integrating Venmo, PayPal Checkout, and crypto features into Stripe while possibly reducing Stripe’s reliance on Visa/Mastercard. PayPal’s new CEO Enrique Lores has reorganized the company into three units (checkout, Venmo, and payments/crypto), and it’s unclear how the structure would adapt post-acquisition. The combined company could process roughly $3.7 trillion in payments annually, but talks could still collapse.

Infantino denies affair claims as UEFA confirms past severance and MBA payments

FIFA president Gianni Infantino denied allegations of an extramarital relationship with a UEFA employee after The Telegraph reported UEFA paid her six-figure severance and MBA fees during his time as UEFA general secretary (2009–2016); UEFA says the payments were in line with the regulations then in force, which have since been tightened, while Infantino calls the allegations defamatory amid ongoing friction between FIFA and UEFA over governance and plans for private investment in football.

July Paydays for Social Security: Dates by Benefit Type and Birthdate

The Social Security Administration has published July 2026 payment dates: Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is paid on the 1st (or the preceding weekday if it falls on a weekend/holiday); Retirement, Disability, and Survivors (RSDI) benefits depend on when you started and your birthdate—pre-May 1997 claimants are paid on the first Thursday (July 2 this month), while post-May 1997 claimants are assigned to the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Wednesday (July 8 for 1st–10th births, July 15 for 11th–20th, July 22 for 21st–31st). The SSA is phasing out paper checks in favor of electronic payments, and missing payments should be reported to your bank first, then to SSA at 1-800-772-1213. The article also notes a possible ~3.9% COLA increase for 2027 per the Senior Citizens League.
