This is a brave move by Walmart. If all companies follow suit, I suspect this will affect almost every major tech company. This is not an isolated case, but the norm in the industry. I've seen this over and over; specific SaaS providers being given preferential treatment because somebody high up in the tech leadership of a major corporation is either receiving kickbacks or they've been promised a future highly paid job at the SaaS provider. That's why you see a lot of corporate folks get hired into leadership positions by smaller SaaS providers who received business from the corporation.
The corporation almost always overpays and it's the same providers getting all the money from all the corporations because they have a similar strategy for all of them.
It's been going on for a LOT longer than 2023.
