How to set a maximum price limit for GPT / OpenAI

The ChatGPT API is paid. Therefore, it is a good idea to set limits that the price for its use should not exceed.

What are the ChatGPT price limits

The use of ChatGPT is invoiced within the administration of all OpenAI APIs. Here you will find two limits:

  • Soft limit –⁠ after reaching it, OpenAI sends you an email with a notification. Spending money continues.
  • Hard limit –⁠ after reaching it, OpenAI services and further spending will be interrupted.

Where are spending limits set

In the OpenAI administration, visit the Manage account → Billing → Usage limits page. Here you will find a form for setting a hard limit and a soft limit.
