What happened?

At the Walmart Data Ventures Inspire conference on September 16, 2026, Walmart announced that its business insights platform Scintilla plans to add Marketplace data access in 2027, along with customizable dashboards and custom alerts, while enhancing the capabilities of the Marty AI assistant. Walmart also plans to strengthen connections between Scintilla, store-supplier applications and its own replenishment systems. The changes are currently part of the product roadmap and are not an immediate fee adjustment or mandatory platform rule. Brands selling on Walmart Marketplace, suppliers, agencies and multichannel retailers may be the main beneficiaries. In the future, sellers may be able to view sales changes, consumer behavior, inventory locations and supply chain performance in the same data environment, supporting decisions on product selection, replenishment, pricing and advertising. However, Walmart has not disclosed new subscription prices, a mandatory Marketplace access date or specific seller eligibility requirements. Sellers should continue monitoring data permissions, pricing and whether third-party Marketplace stores will be covered when the features officially launch in 2027.

What does this mean for cross-border sellers?

Scintilla remains on the product roadmap, with Marketplace data, dashboards, alerts and deeper Marty AI features planned for 2027. Sellers do not need to change store rules or fee arrangements for now. Begin organizing sales, inventory, supply chain, pricing and advertising data, and monitor the launch details for data permissions, pricing and third-party Marketplace coverage.
