Hi and welcome to the developer forum! GPT-4 API access is being rolled out to developers as capacity becomes available, there is no longer a need to apply for a waitlist since the end of July so this will be automatic, but it depends on available compute and system load, so there is no set time scale, hopefully it is soon for all developers. ---

As capacity and load allow, yes. There are many people looking to access a fixed resource, as more compute is added and as refinements in processing are brough online, more users will be added. ---

Huh, it seems like you payed for ChatGPT Plus. ChatGPT and the OpenAI API are different products, so they’re billed separately. ---
