USB Altitude Go Credit Cardholders, does it earn 2x points at Costco, Target, or Walmart?

I found the following for their Cash+ card and assume that it would be the same for Altitude Go card as well.

Both Target and Walmart are listed as grocery stores.

That was a good find!! Thank you, I won't be able to test this theory out for another 6+/months when I'm out of the garden.

There is a disclaimer up top under "Keep in Mind" and in fine print bullet 3 concerning MCC codes. As with most card issuers, it will depend on the MCC assigned to that location's credit card merchant account. For Visa, the Visa Supplier Locator page should show the Visa MCC for Target and Walmart locations in your area.

Thank you for the Data Point. Seems I won't really know until I test with the card at my local Costco and Target.
