How to cancel OpenAI Platform

A quick read on what to expect — full step-by-step guide is one click away.

35 Mostly Compliant

This is the OpenAI developer Platform (platform.openai.com), not ChatGPT Plus. Open Settings › Billing › Overview, click Cancel plan, and confirm. No further charges are made, but you're still billed for usage you've already run, and any prepaid credits are non-refundable (and expire a year after purchase). Turn auto-recharge off too, or your balance keeps topping up. Your API keys keep working until the credit balance hits $0.

Why this score?

Computed from five weighted dimensions: required steps, retention friction, channel restrictions, refund policy, and recovery hostility. See the full rubric.
