OpenAI has made up to 500 USD per month in API credits available to eligible subscribers
Eligible subscribers to the ChatGPT Pro and Business plans can receive up to 500 USD per month in free API credits. Activation requires linking an API organization owned by the subscriber.
OpenAI announced that eligible subscribers to the ChatGPT Pro and Business plans can claim free API credits as part of their subscription. According to the company, the benefit is worth up to 500 USD per month; this is the maximum amount, not a uniform amount for all eligible subscribers.
The benefit can be activated through ChatGPT or API Platform. This requires linking an API organization owned by the subscriber. The linked guide describes the specific amounts and eligibility conditions.
Why it matters
The subscription can cover some API usage costs for eligible users. The practical benefit depends on the amount of credits granted and actual usage; the stated 500 USD is the monthly cap on the benefit.
Two audiences, two different impacts
What this means
For individuals
If you are eligible, you can use the credits when working with the API on your own projects and reduce the associated expenses.
For a business
For eligible business subscribers, the credits offer a way to reduce API costs. To use them, subscribers must specify an API organization they own.
