Jet (Walmart)

Jet (Walmart) was a US e-commerce marketplace founded by Marc Lore and backed by Bain Capital Ventures, acquired by Walmart in 2016 for roughly 3.3 billion USD and subsequently wound down. The jet.com domain now 302-redirects to walmart.com (confirmed 2026-07-19) and no standalone Jet developer portal, API, documentation, or SDK surface exists; the brand and its commerce technology were absorbed into Walmart. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of bain-capital-ventures and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub. It is retained for lineage/graph purposes but has no live public API surface to enrich.

Jet (Walmart) is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Commerce, E-commerce, Retail, and Marketplace.
