Hello, I have a question about how to register for a free Azure account.
I am trying to register for a free Azure trial, but I don’t have a Visa card. I would like to use my dad's card for registration. Is it necessary for me to have my own card to register?

Hello yuni janh,
The cardholder’s name doesn’t have to match the name on the Azure account. Therefore, you should be able to use your dad’s card to register for the Azure Free Trial.
