Logistics of including Walmart grocery delivery

We want to follow Jesse Vasquez's advice and offer Walmart+ grocery delivery to our MTR tenants. We just can't figure out the logistics of access to the account and adding/removing payment information. Here's our thoughts:

-Create an e-mail address specific to the property that's linked to that Walmart+ account 

-Give them 48 hours from move-in to go into Walmart+ and add their credit card 

-Once they tell me they added their credit card, I go in and remove mine (Walmart+ requires a valid credit card on file. I can't delete mine until they add theirs)

-Upon move out, I go in and add my card, delete theirs, and change the password to the Walmart account and e-mail account

-Include lease language that changing the Walmart+ and/or e-mail account passwords is grounds for automatic termination of the lease (still have to verify with an attorney that would even be enforceable) 

The process is clunky, but I can't think of any way to make it smoother. Any additional thoughts or advice?

    I suggest that you just leave a note that walmart delivers to the area and let them set up their own account. 

    Alternately you could keep a credit card with a low balance. a hold, or expired stored in the account. Not sure how walmart validates the card when you enter it.   They may require the CVV code each time so you don't need to delete your card or limit it at all.  

    For some reason I can't tag you.
