You can only buy Walmart gift cards through Walmart’s own stores and website.[1]
Since they’re owned by the same company, you can also use Sam’s Club gift cards at Walmart.[2] Sam’s Club gift cards are available at Sam’s Club stores and online.[1]
You can’t buy Walmart gift cards through third-party retailers that sell gift cards near you. Even Amazon doesn’t sell them.[3]
