Walmart-Backed OnePay Now Sells Solana and Arbitrum. Does a Retail App Listing Influence Price?

Walmart's payments app OnePay quietly added Solana and Arbitrum to its crypto lineup, and months later both tokens surged dramatically. But figuring out whether the listing deserves any credit reveals something surprising about how retail crypto access actually works.

OnePay, a payments app backed by Walmart (NASDAQ:WMT | WMT Price Prediction), began selling Solana (CRYPTO:SOL) and Arbitrum (CRYPTO:ARB) in late March 2026, about six months before both tokens rallied in September. Thus, the OnePay crypto listing alone offers only a limited explanation for the price surges that followed months later.

By the end of September, Arbitrum rose about 137% over the month, reaching around $0.20. Meanwhile, Solana’s price climbed to $118, marking a 66% gain over the preceding 60 days. This raises the question: does a token’s presence in a Walmart-supported app affect its price, or did these rallies have different origins?

OnePay Added Solana and Arbitrum in March, Six Months Before Their Rallies

OnePay began its crypto trading services in January, initially offering Bitcoin and Ethereum. In late March, the app introduced Solana, Cardano, Bitcoin Cash, and PAX Gold. On March 27, it listed Arbitrum, Sui, and Polygon. According to general manager Ron Rojany, OnePay selects assets based on factors like demand, liquidity, regulatory clarity, and long-term utility.
