ChatGPT Ads Reach India's Free and Go Tiers, With a $7.60 Minimum Daily Ad Budget
OpenAI said August 27 it will begin showing ads on ChatGPT's Free and Go tiers in India, the third market after the US launch in February 2026 and Europe earlier this August. It launches with 50 brands and agency partners WPP and Omnicom, and an ad manager arriving next month sets a minimum daily campaign budget of ₹725, about $7.60. India carries more than 100 million weekly active ChatGPT users and the sub-$5 Go plan was given away free for a year there, so this is the test of whether a giveaway market can be monetized ahead of an IPO.
