Who It's For
A Good Fit If
- People ask ChatGPT about what you sell: a trip, a class, a stay
- Your business sits in a category OpenAI accepts, such as travel or local services
- You want to test a new platform on a small budget, on your own account
- You can name the result that counts: bookings, WhatsApp enquiries or calls
Not the Right Fit If
- You are a clinic or dentist: OpenAI generally refuses health services outside the US
- You sell alcohol or list property for rent or sale
- You want a guaranteed number of bookings, leads or a set return on spend
- You want someone to reply to the chats the ads bring in
Where ChatGPT Ads Show
- Where it shows
- Under ChatGPT’s answer, labelled as an ad and kept apart from the answer itself.
- Who sees it
- Adults on ChatGPT’s Free and Go plans. People on paid plans such as Plus and Pro see no ads.
- How it matches
- To what the chat is about, such as a trip, a class or a stay, rather than to typed keywords.
- Since when
- Sold to businesses in Indonesia through OpenAI’s Ads Manager since 23 September 2026.
OpenAI generally refuses ads for health services outside the US and shows no ads beside personal health chats. Alcohol and housing listings are refused too.

ChatGPT Ads Management
ChatGPT Ads campaigns on your own OpenAI ad account.
15% of the month’s ad spend
or IDR 4,800,000 a month (US$300), whichever is higher
Set-up IDR 3,600,000 (US$220), once
How the fee worksExample
| Monthly ad spend | 15% of spend | Mersa’s fee |
|---|---|---|
| IDR 20,000,000 | IDR 3,000,000 | IDR 4,800,000 the minimum |
| IDR 40,000,000 | IDR 6,000,000 | IDR 6,000,000 15% of spend |
The minimum applies until ad spend passes IDR 32,000,000/month. The ad spend itself goes to OpenAI, not to Mersa. Google Ads, Meta Ads and ChatGPT Ads are each a separate service at this same price.

- Set-up
- Paid once, before work starts.
- Terms
- Start with one month, then stay month to month with 30 days' notice. Invoiced monthly in advance by PT Mersa Business Consulting, in rupiah.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a business in Bali or Indonesia run ChatGPT Ads?
Yes, if OpenAI accepts its category. OpenAI has sold ChatGPT Ads in Indonesia through its Ads Manager since 23 September 2026. The ad shows under ChatGPT's answer, labelled as an ad, to adults on the Free and Go plans. Mersa runs ChatGPT Ads at 15% of the month's ad spend or IDR 4,800,000 a month (US$300), whichever is higher, plus IDR 3,600,000 set-up (US$220).
Can a clinic or dentist in Bali advertise with ChatGPT Ads?
Generally not. OpenAI's ad policy says ads for health services outside the US are generally prohibited, and it shows no ads beside chats about personal health. We check this before set-up is invoiced. For a clinic or dental practice, being named in ChatGPT's answer itself is the route, which is AI Visibility.
Which Bali businesses can OpenAI refuse for ChatGPT Ads?
Besides health services, OpenAI refuses alcohol, gambling and housing listings, which matters for beach clubs and villa rentals. Travel, local services and classes are among the categories it accepts. We check your category against the policy on the first call, and say plainly if the ads cannot run.
How do ChatGPT Ads track a booking made on WhatsApp?
OpenAI's Pixel measures what happens on your website, so a booking finished in WhatsApp is not counted on its own. At set-up we agree the one result that counts and check it is recorded, for example a thank-you page or a tap on the WhatsApp button. Checking the tracking is part of the work, not a promise of any number of bookings.
How do I pay for Mersa ChatGPT Ads management, and how do I stop it?
Ad spend is paid by you, straight to OpenAI. Mersa's own fee is separate: Start with one month, then stay month to month with 30 days' notice. Invoiced monthly in advance by PT Mersa Business Consulting, in rupiah. The one-time set-up fee of IDR 3,600,000 (US$220) is paid before work starts. The campaigns run on your own OpenAI ad account, so nothing needs handing back when the service ends.
Is there a minimum ad budget for Mersa to manage ChatGPT Ads?
Our terms set a minimum on Mersa's fee, not on your ad spend. The fee is 15% of the month's ad spend or IDR 4,800,000 a month (US$300), whichever is higher, so the minimum is what you pay until your ad spend passes IDR 32,000,000 a month. OpenAI sets its own daily minimum, which we go through at set-up.
