Banked reset grants (separate from global resets)
- 2026-10-07 — Day 3/ The big one is GPT-6 in Chat, but today is also a little celebration day with a new high of 40M active users across Codex and ChatGPT Work. Loading a banked reset in everyone's paid accounts. See you again tomorrow! X post ↗
- 2026-09-29 — Finally, with all of the new things we ship today because we want you all to build, we figured you might need another banked reset. … That’s obviously for everyone in the world, not just people here at DevDay. source ↗
- 2026-09-22 — We are loading a banked reset into all accounts of our Plus, Pro and Business users. Let's go! X post ↗
A banked reset is a per-user grant redeemed manually from your account: it is not a global reset and is excluded from the intervals above.
