I verified my organization and have balance on my account. I’m getting a rate limit hit for gpt-image-1. Is anyone else having the same issue?
Alright, this is fixed. I verified an organization which was in free tier. I put in $10 credits and it started working through API. Still gives rate limit on playground though.
Hey @pranavreddy same problem here
I can generate images and edit with dalle but not the new image gpt 1 model. Getting 429 rate limit error but no requests are registered.
I have a verified personal organization with 5 dollars added.
It says I’m on the free tier usage.
Do you think I need 10 bucks? Anyone else with this issue?
Added 10 bucks. Still the same issue.
same, I just added 10 more bucks. Same issue.
Same issue, added 5 bucks
i don’t think this is fixed yet, same error occurs on my side
not working via python library and also just tested in the playground but same error appears
Hi everyone,
Recently created the developer account, verified organization, topped up API Credits ($5) and tried to call the image-gen API using Curl and the OpenAI SDK (Python).
This is the error I receive:
→ Status Code: 429
x-ratelimit-limit-requests: None
x-ratelimit-limit-tokens: None
x-ratelimit-remaining-requests: None
x-ratelimit-remaining-tokens: None
x-ratelimit-reset-requests: None
x-ratelimit-reset-tokens: None
Error detail: {
“error”: {
“message”: “You’ve exceeded the rate limit, please slow down and try again after 0.0 seconds.”,
“type”: “invalid_request_error”,
“param”: null,
“code”: “rate_limit_exceeded”
}
}
If anyone could guide me, that would be duly appreciated.
Same issue. I’ve been trying to find a workaround since yesterday with no luck. I can use the dall-e-2 model, but get a rate limit error with dall-e-3 and gpt-image-1 via the API.
gpt-image-1 is only available to developers on usage tier 1 or above, not the “free tier”. (See the rate limits section at the bottom of https://platform.openai.com/docs/models/gpt-image-1.) You can see your usage tier at the top of https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits. To upgrade to higher usage tiers, you’ll need to add a credit card and spend money.
E.g., To upgrade from the free tier to tier 1, $5 must be spent.
We’ll look into improving that error message (I think it was mostly designed for actual rate limited activity, not for organizations on the free tier).
If you’re stuck on the free tier, please reach out to https://help.openai.com/en/articles/6614161-how-can-i-contact-support, and support can look into your account directly

Are you sure about this solution?
"Once the following criteria are met, you’ll automatically move to the next tier:
- At least $5 spent on the API since account creation."
I’m using API for several month and it shows me that I’m on free plan. And yes, I spent more than $5.
That is decidedly not how it works. Unless there has been a drastic policy change.
Recalculation is triggered immediately on new payment, and considers the total amount paid in the past including the newest and the time since initial payment.
The actual solution is simply to fix this model deployment to all, remove the tier system and the validation system for granting model rights, revoke the contract from Persona from this failed experiment, stop gating products with non-existent justification, and give everyone the same service for the same charges billed.
There have been random instances and prolonged periods of an initial or followup payment not elevating a tier. I have had to offer in those cases, 1. contact support and wait, or 2. pay another $5 to re-trigger the calculation and receive the tier upgrade.

Yes, that was a mix-up and poorly worded on my part! (Edited my reply above to be better and for posterity—tier 1 can be achieved after a payment method is added and $5 is spent.) I checked a few accounts above and they’re not on eligible tiers, so perhaps the better solution is to ask support so individual accounts can be looked at.
And, @_j, as a reminder, please refer to community policy: even during moments of frustration, “be friendly, welcoming, respectful and constructive with your communication”.

Welcome, Edwin!
That indeed would be a policy change. Needing to spend the money.
That would imply that one can only make usage at “free tier” levels (of the past free trial), despite having a paid and funded account, initially loaded with up to $100. Tier-0 (with no “free tier” now shown in the UI) gives only 3 RPM limits to language models, and yet, a never-funded account includes gpt-image-1 in the rate limits page with values (but no separate “images per minute” field that seems the actual limit).
I would look closer to see if it isn’t a payment network problem as I describe has occurred in the past - like a whole block of new paying subscribers receiving no tier upgrade and reaching the forum at once in a spurt.
Or for users, the standard advice: generate a new API key, pay attention to any phone number challenges at that time, do not set any limits on it, use that in your application and try the Playground then.
Or a prior answer among dozens of anecdotes of “okay, I paid another $5 and it finally upgraded, thanks _j”:
My experience so far — I funded the initial $5, verified my organization, tried funding another $10, spent $5 on DALLE 2 throwaways, funded another $5 in hopes to trigger the “automatic move” to Tier 1.
I’m $20 out of pocket and still stuck on the Free tier. Next step is to contact support and wait how long? The amount of hoops we have to jump through to get API access is insane.

Same, I’m right now spent $5.30 on DALLE2 throw aways.
Still on the Free tier. Is this a nightly job or something that runs to move between tiers? Granted it’s only been a few hours since I achieved my 5 dollar spending limit.
@stickyribbs & @codeholic - Any luck getting to Tier 1?
In the same boat as you guys & wanted to know about how long it takes so I can plan out my project build.
Thanks!
