Walmart on Thursday began rolling out its own mobile-payment system to allow customers to pay through its app at the cash register. The world’s largest retailer said it would begin testing out the new system near its headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas.

The company said it plans to launch the payment system in its 4,600 stores nationwide early next year.
