Since I have the Kobo account, when I clicked eBooks on the Walmart site, I was redirected to the standard Kobo eBook store (I think there was a referral URL, but nothing else different than just going to Kobo). But when my brother followed the link, he got a Walmart branded Kobo store -- so I booted up my laptop and, sure enough, the Walmart eBook store came up. Since I didn't have an account with Walmart eBooks, I used my Walmart login and now have a second Kobo account. At this point I don't mind that, but I wonder if there is a way to link the two accounts? Or will they always be treated as two separate accounts?

So then I logged out of my Kobo Touch (under accounts) to see if I could login to the new Walmart account. When the Touch rebooted it came up with the Walmart eBook logo and login as the default -- so, I guess, in the U.S. Walmart is now the "go-to" Kobo bookstore? (They also gave you the option to choose the Kobo bookstore, but that was secondary, below the FaceBook login.) Kind of weird to see that. Has anyone else experienced this?
log into your kobo account. go to your account settings where you can reset password but scroll down to the very bottom there should be a link to click to link your walmart ebook account. it will prompt you to enter your walmart ebook userid and password, I had an issue where that and the ios app would not reconize my account so I had to reregister while going threw the linking process
