OpenAI Security Bug Bounty
Pays $250 to $30,000 per accepted report, by target and priority, at OpenAI's discretion. What the platform publishes, not what anyone will earn.
OpenAI's Bugcrowd program for security flaws in ChatGPT, its API, its desktop app and Codex CLI; model safety issues alone are out of scope.

Not read by the daily check: bugcrowd's site terms bar the copying, use or publication of any portion of its site, and its reward table sits only in page data (read Nov 13 2026), so a person re-reads it. A person last read it on Nov 13.
