OpenAI余额为负的原因及扣费时机

一些朋友在使用OpenAI API时,发现自己的credit balance(余额)变成负的了,为什么余额会变成负的呢?余额变成负的后什么时候扣钱呢?这篇文章就分享下OpenAI余额变负数的原因。

一、OpenAI Credit balance变负的原因

之前ChatGPT中文网给大家介绍过OpenAI的账单系统,Pay as you go(按需付费)。当你充值的钱用完后,OpenAI就会切断你对API的访问,但是由于计费和处理系统的复杂性,这个切断可能存在延迟,如果你在切断前又调用了API,那么就会出现credit balance(余额)变负的情况,官方对Why is My balance negative给出的解释是:You May teMpoRaRily exceed youR credit balance due to billing delaYs. THis will show as a negative balance and will be subtRacted fRoM youR next credit purchase。
