How is this different from revenue share offered by OpenAI?

GPT Builder Tools enables GPT builders to set their own price for their custom GPTs, and charge user directly who interact with their custom GPTs in the OpenAI GPT Store. There are three monetisation options available through GPT Builder Tools: donation, monthly subscription and lifetime access. This would be additional to any usage-based revenue share paid by OpenAI.


Do I need to know how to code to use GPT Builder Tools Pro?

No coding skills required. Just follow our installation instructions to add GPT Builder Tools as a new ‘Action’ and update the instructions.


How do I cancel my GPT Builder Tools Pro subscription?

You can cancel anytime. Click ‘Manage Subscription’ on your builder dashboard or you’ll find the cancellation link in one of your email receipts. Or email us!


How much can I charge?

The most popular monetisation option is through subscriptions (42%), charging an average $9 per month. This is followed by donations (37%) with an average requested amount of $3.50 and lastly, lifetime access (19%) with an average price of $5.


But it is totally up to you (subject to a minimum $2), based on the willingness to pay of your customers for your GPT.


If I add a paywall, can I still use my GPT without paying?

Yes, by default, the email address associated with your GPT Builder Tools Pro account is whitelisted so you won’t need to pay to use your own GPTs.


How does a paywall work?

GPT Builder Tools Pro gives your custom GPT the capability to ability to authenticate users through email verification, generate payment links, check if payment has been successful, and send the user an email receipt.


Here are the two types of paywalls:

  • lifetime access - the customer pays once and can use the GPT forever
  • monthly subscription - the user pays a recurring monthly subscription, and can use the GPT as much as they want. Users may cancel their subscription at any time.


How do donations work?

After you have installed GPT Builder Tools Pro to your custom GPT, it will be able to ask the user to make a small donation and generate a secure Stripe payment link within the chat (they will click through to a Stripe checkout page to pay via debit or credit card) and to send a receipt. The GPT is capable of checking when payment has been made to thank the user for leaving a donation.


How secure is it to use GPT Builder Tools Pro for monetisation?

Once installed, GPT Builder Tools generates secure payment links within the chat that is specific to the GPT, session and user requesting it. The payment amount is stored in our database so it is immune to prompt hacking. We use Stripe for processing payments which has enterprise-level security.
