OpenAI is now capping how many paid ChatGPT accounts you can have per device and payment card

OpenAI has introduced payment-card and device limits for paid ChatGPT subscriptions. Users who link too many subscriptions to the same card or device cannot start additional subscriptions, and ChatGPT caps the number of paid accounts usable on a single device. Accounts that exceed the device cap display a “Device limit reached” message and can no longer be used on that device. The restrictions apply to ChatGPT Go, Plus, Pro 100, Pro 200, and Pro 500 plans. Free accounts and ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans do not count toward the limits. OpenAI’s support documentation says logging out does not automatically free a device slot for another paid account. OpenAI directs users needing more capacity toward purchasing additional credits or usage resets. Those options are generally more expensive than maintaining an additional subscription, according to the source text. The limits restrict people from cycling among multiple paid accounts on one device to obtain more usage from flat-rate plans.
