AI overview

OpenAI has introduced limits on how many paid ChatGPT accounts users can link to one payment card or use on one device, blocking users who exceed those limits from starting new subscriptions or using an affected paid account on that device. The rules cover ChatGPT Go, Plus, Pro 100, Pro 200, and Pro 500; free accounts and Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans do not count toward the limits. OpenAI describes the restrictions as a security measure and directs users seeking more usage to extra credits or usage resets. The Decoder says those options are generally more expensive than buying another subscription.
