Walmart is reportedly sending gift cards to customers affected by canceled pre-orders. The gift cards were issued as compensation for the canceled orders.

Some customers received both an email offering to reorder the product and a gift card, with a few receiving two separate gift cards. One customer confirmed the gift cards were valid and added them to their Walmart account.

Best Buy also issued gift cards to customers who had pre-ordered a game after the pre-orders were canceled. However, the gift cards were only worth $10, compared to the game's price of $70.
