The update
OpenAI has officially announced that starting in December, ChatGPT and Codex services under Plus, Pro, and Business subscription plans will have their quotas merged. The new billing method will uniformly measure usage by tokens, excluding the Instant quick chat feature, which will not draw from the shared resource pool. This adjustment is seen as a response to recent user controversy, as OpenAI previously raised usage limits for some Pro and Business plans without including Plus users, leading to widespread dissatisfaction. At the same time, Codex is strengthening account management by tightening its multi-account policy. Devices linked to an excessive number of paid accounts may face login restrictions. Currently, the official specific quota values for the shared pool and the exact effective date have not been released, and users are advised to await further notifications.
