Azure Sponsorship has ended and converted to standard pay-as-you-go rates

Question

Will the Azure Sponsorship be renewed after one year?

Answer 1

Hello @admin Thank you for contacting us through Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer any questions you may have!

Azure Sponsorship is a program that provides free Azure services to eligible customers for a limited period of time, typically one year. The exact terms and conditions of the sponsorship program may vary depending on the specific offer and the region where it is available.

In general, Azure Sponsorship offers are not automatically renewed after the initial period expires. However, some offers may allow customers to extend or renew their sponsorship by meeting certain eligibility criteria or by contacting Azure support.

If you are currently enrolled in an Azure Sponsorship program and you are approaching the end of your sponsorship period, you should review the terms and conditions of your offer to determine if there are any options for extending or renewing your sponsorship. You can also contact Azure subscription management support for assistance with your sponsorship renewal by raising a support request. The ticket enables you to work closely with the support engineers and get a quick resolution to your issue.
