OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Ads in Taiwan and Six Other Markets

OpenAI has expanded its ChatGPT Ads platform to seven markets, including Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, as of September 24, 2026. The service is now available in over 60 countries. Advertisements appear below responses for free and 'Go' plan users, with entry barriers lowered to a self-service model starting at 8,000 TWD. While e-commerce and travel sectors are expected to lead adoption, financial services, alcohol, gambling, tobacco, and political content remain restricted. Pricing models include CPM, CPC, and CPA, mirroring standard search advertising practices.
