OpenAI is reinforcing its commitment to ChatGPT Go , making it available in Spain and offering a 12-month free trial in India starting November 4th. This move aims to accelerate the adoption of its mid-range plan in key markets without, for now, changing the terms in Europe.
ChatGPT Go is the company's most affordable paid plan , designed as a bridge between the free version and premium subscriptions. It offers greater usability, image creation and file upload capabilities , as well as expanded memory for more personalized responses, and is available on the web, as well as in iOS and Android apps and on desktop (macOS and Windows).
What is ChatGPT Go and what does it include?
Compared to the free plan, ChatGPT Go adds expanded access to templates ( including GPT-5 ), a higher message limit, a larger context window, data analysis features (such as Python), and collaboration tools. The idea is to offer advanced features at a competitive price in markets outside the US.
According to OpenAI, Go allows up to ten times more use than the free version for generating responses, creating images, and managing files, with improved memory that helps personalize interactions. The subscription is monthly; there is no annual option.
Where is ChatGPT Go available: Spain is included in the list
OpenAI has expanded the global reach of ChatGPT Go to 98 countries . In Europe, the service is now available in Spain, along with Austria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Portugal, and Sweden (there is a slight discrepancy in the official documentation regarding Sweden, although it is listed in the changelog).
Latin American markets such as Bolivia, Brazil, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua are also being incorporated , as part of an expansion that seeks to consolidate a broader presence in regions with high mobile adoption.
India, a strategic priority and one-year promotion
In India, ChatGPT Go will be free for 12 months for those who sign up starting November 4th during a limited promotional period (OpenAI has not specified an end date). Current Go plan subscribers in the country will also receive a free year, with redemption details to be announced later.
The initiative coincides with the DevDay Exchange developer event in Bengaluru and the company's local expansion: a new office in New Delhi and the hiring of staff in the country. India, with over 700 million smartphone users and more than one billion internet subscriptions, is already one of OpenAI's most important markets.
Competition and market context
The offensive in India comes amid a fierce battle to attract users: Perplexity has partnered with Airtel to offer its Pro plan free of charge to millions of customers, and Google has launched a free year of its AI Pro plan for students. OpenAI is responding by temporarily offering its intermediate tier at no cost in the largest and fastest-growing market.
The challenge of monetization remains: in the 90 days leading up to August, the ChatGPT app racked up over 29 million downloads and generated around $3,6 million in in-app purchases, according to third-party data. Since launching Go in India, the company reports that paid subscriptions in the country have more than doubled , and the plan has been progressively expanding to dozens of markets.
How to activate ChatGPT Go and platform availability
To subscribe to ChatGPT Go, simply go to the ChatGPT website, create an account or log in, and select the Go plan from your profile (Upgrade Plan → Go). In India, it's recommended to sign up as soon as the promotion is available; current subscribers will receive instructions on how to claim their 12 free months.
The service works on iOS and Android , and has apps for macOS and Windows. While no equivalent free promotion has been announced in Spain or the rest of Europe, the arrival of the intermediate plan expands the options between the free tier and the higher-tier subscriptions.
For users in Spain, the big news is the official availability of ChatGPT Go as part of the global expansion, while the one-year free trial remains limited to India for the time being. Those who need more capacity than the free plan offers without upgrading to the more expensive options will find an alternative here with enhanced features and a monthly subscription model.
