What was announced?

OpenAI News announced that ChatGPT Ads is expanding to 26 additional countries, bringing availability to 89 countries. Since launching just over eight months ago, more than 100,000 advertisers have run campaigns on the platform. ChatGPT has more than 1.2 billion weekly users.

Why it matters

This expansion follows earlier rollouts in Europe and in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. From local businesses to global brands, more advertisers can now reach people as they explore, compare, and decide what to buy in ChatGPT.

What changes

These are the newly added countries named in the article:

  • 14 Latin American countries (including Argentina, Chile, Colombia, and Peru; Mexico and Brazil launched earlier)
  • Nigeria
  • South Africa
  • Serbia
  • Ukraine
  • Cambodia
  • Bangladesh
  • Pakistan

The article doesn't give the full list of all 26 countries.

Dive Deep

  • How to buy: advertisers can buy through technology partners or self-serve through Ads Manager at ads.openai.com
  • Which plans see ads: only the Free and Go plans. Plus, Pro, and Enterprise remain ad-free
  • How ads appear: inside conversations, when users are comparing options and refining choices. In the article's example, a marathon trainee planning meals sees an ad for a grocery delivery service
  • Transparency: ads are clearly labeled and separate from ChatGPT's answers, and OpenAI says advertising does not influence those answers
  • Privacy: OpenAI says it keeps conversations private from advertisers and does not sell customer data, in line with its published ads principles

Looking ahead, OpenAI plans to add new ad formats, objectives, buying options, and measurement capabilities, and is exploring more native ways for businesses to interact with consumers in ChatGPT.

Wrap-up

  • ChatGPT Ads expanded to 26 new countries, 89 in total
  • Over 100,000 advertisers and more than 1.2 billion weekly ChatGPT users
  • Ads appear only on Free and Go; paid plans stay ad-free
  • New formats, measurement, and buying options are planned

If you're an advertiser looking to market internationally, this one's for you!
