ChatGPT Plus, Go or Business: Which One to Buy
The difference between ChatGPT Plus, Go and a Business seat, how each one is delivered, and how to read an option's warranty before you buy. ChatGPT comes in several plans, and each plan comes in a few kinds of delivery with different warranties. This guide helps you pick the one that fits.
The three plans
Plus gives you OpenAI's latest models with higher limits than the free plan, image generation and Codex. Go is OpenAI's lower-priced plan, between the free plan and Plus. Business gives you every Plus feature in a shared workspace.
How each one is delivered
Plus and Go come as a ready account with the plan already on it. The login details are in your order, under My orders, usually right after the payment is confirmed. They are never sent by email: the email only tells you the order is ready. Business is a seat added to your own email. After paying, send that email in your order's chat, and our team adds you to the workspace. The seat is renewable, and the workspace stays the same when you renew. Plus Trial is a Gmail account eligible for one month of Plus at no cost. It is for experienced users who know how to redeem the offer: read its page before you buy.
Signing in to a ready account
Sign in with the email and password from your order. When ChatGPT asks for a login code, paste the 2FA key from your order into a 2FA code generator and enter the code it shows. Right after you sign in, change the details as the option says, for example the 2FA.
Reading the warranty
Across the Plus options the plan is the same: what differs is the length and the warranty. Each option's name says its warranty, such as 5-Hour, 12-Hour, 20-Day or 28-Day, and the longer plans last longer. The warranty is counted from delivery: to use it, write in your order's chat before it ends. Some options have rules of their own, such as never clicking "Cancel subscription and refund", and a plan lost by breaking them is not covered. The option's text, under the options on the ChatGPT page, lists them.
Codex
Codex comes with Plus, and a Business seat includes ChatGPT and Codex. If Codex asks for phone verification, use your own number: that step is not covered by the warranty. To call OpenAI's Codex (GPT) models from your own apps and tools with an API key instead, see Codex API Credits and the guide to AI API credits.
Which one to choose
For the latest models, higher limits and image generation: Plus. For the lowest price above the free plan: Go. For a seat on your own email that you can renew: Business. Every option, with its warranty and rules, is on the ChatGPT page.
