chatgpt-subscription-guide

A Claude Code Skill that gives Claude practical, up-to-date knowledge about ChatGPT Plus, ChatGPT Pro, Claude Pro, Codex, and AI subscription payment decisions for users who do not have an overseas credit card.

It covers Plus vs Pro decisions, Claude vs ChatGPT use cases, payment options for users in mainland China, account-safety rules, refund checks, renewal issues, and common payment failures.

What this skill does

When you install it, Claude Code can answer questions like:

• "Should I choose ChatGPT Plus or ChatGPT Pro?"
• "Is ChatGPT Pro worth it for Codex and AI coding?"
• "When should I use Claude Pro instead of ChatGPT Plus?"
• "My card keeps getting rejected by OpenAI - what are my options?"
• "Can I subscribe to ChatGPT without an overseas credit card?"
• "Is it safe to use a third-party recharge service?"
• "What should I check before paying for an AI subscription?"
• "My Plus renewal failed. What should I do next?"

...without having to research each payment route and plan comparison from scratch.

Maintained by the team behind GETGPT Pro, a ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Pro recharge option for users in mainland China.

We work with ChatGPT and Claude subscription edge cases often, so this repository turns that knowledge into a public skill for plan comparison, payment troubleshooting, and safer subscription decisions.
