Question 1

What is the OPENAI* charge on my bank statement?

Accepted Answer

The OPENAI* charge on your statement is from OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT and the OpenAI API. This is a legitimate charge, typically around $20.00, and usually corresponds to a ChatGPT Plus subscription or usage fees for the OpenAI API platform.

Question 2

I didn't sign up for ChatGPT Plus — why am I being charged $20 by OpenAI?

Accepted Answer

If you see a $20.00 OPENAI* charge you don't recognize, it's possible someone with access to your email signed up for ChatGPT Plus, or you may have started a free trial that converted to a paid plan. You can review your active subscriptions and billing history by logging into your OpenAI account at platform.openai.com/account/billing to verify what you're being charged for.

Question 3

How do I stop recurring OPENAI* charges from appearing on my statement?

Accepted Answer

To cancel your OpenAI subscription and stop future OPENAI* charges, go to platform.openai.com/account/billing and log in with your OpenAI account. From there you can cancel your ChatGPT Plus plan or adjust your API billing settings. Make sure to cancel before your next billing date to avoid being charged another $20.00.

Question 4

Is the OPENAI* charge on my card from ChatGPT or something else?

Accepted Answer

The OPENAI* charge can come from either a ChatGPT Plus subscription, which costs $20.00 per month, or from API usage if you have a developer account on the OpenAI platform. To see exactly what the charge is tied to, log into your account at platform.openai.com/account/billing where you can view a full breakdown of your charges and subscription details.
