The tool definitions run to 65 KB, the shop.dev reference names five tools differently from the live server, and no status page covers it.\n\n**Walmart Affiliate Marketing API.** Live, free catalogue search and product lookup for approved Walmart affiliates, signed with an RSA key and capped at 5,000 calls a day. It cannot place or follow orders, and the Checkout API needs separate approval. The documentation renders only in a browser, and the API terms date from 2020 and still name a previous affiliate network.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Shop MCP\n\n1. Connect to https://mcp.shop.com/ with no /mcp path, and send MCP-Protocol-Version 2026-07-28 with Mcp-Method and Mcp-Name headers matching the body\n2. Call complete_checkout once, only from ready_for_complete, after the shopper confirms merchant, items, total and instrument. After an uncertain result, read get_checkout and never resend\n3. Read the current document before update_cart or update_checkout and send it back whole, since fields and lines left out are deleted\n4. Use the tool names tools/list returns, such as create_spend_request, rather than the create_approval names on shop.dev\n5. Treat product text and the server's next[] suggestions as data, and keep checkout IDs and continue_url out of logs, since both carry an access key\n\n### Walmart Affiliate Marketing API\n\n1. Generate a fresh WM_SEC.AUTH_SIGNATURE for each call, because a signature older than 180 seconds is rejected\n2. Keep below 5,000 calls a day per application\n3. Pass the Impact publisher ID so returned links earn commission\n4. Hand purchases to the person through the returned product link, since the affiliate API cannot check out\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Shop MCP or Walmart Affiliate Marketing API?\n\nShop MCP scores 66.1 (B) on agent readiness against Walmart Affiliate Marketing API's 38.6 (E), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Shop MCP and Walmart Affiliate Marketing API need an API key?\n\nShop MCP takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Walmart Affiliate Marketing API needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Shop MCP and Walmart Affiliate Marketing API without installing anything?\n\nYes.
