How to charge credits in Azure?

I started studying Azure some time ago to get certified for AZ-204. I began with the $200 free credits, but I didn't know that it was only for one month, and for the next 11 months I would only have access to free resources, otherwise, the usage would be deducted from my card. So I ended up closing my subscription.

Is there any way to buy Azure credits and use them every month? (I want to buy $10 worth of credits)

    Hello Jose,

    Thanks for your question

    Normally, you can't buy $10 worth of credits in the same way you might with a gift card, you can manage your spending by setting spending limits and alerts.

    To set up a spending limit, see:
