Dear Microsoft Founders Hub Team,

I’ve completed all the necessary steps to unlock additional Azure credits, including reaching a strong engagement score and finishing the verification checklist. My current Azure credit balance is fully used ($25,000 out of $25,000), and I would greatly appreciate it if you could review my account ahead of the scheduled automatic review.

We’re actively building and scaling our cloud printing solution for airports, and additional Azure credits would help us maintain development momentum without interruption.

Please let me know if any further information is needed to support this request.

Best regards,

Ali Timajchi

    Hi Ali Timajchi,

    For accounts that have received Azure credits of $25,000 or more, the process for unlocking additional credits is automated. These accounts are typically reviewed approximately 45 days prior to the expiration of their current credits. Once reviewed, a decision is generally made within three business days. If approved, additional Azure credits and an extended program duration will be automatically applied to the account, no manual request is necessary.

    Please refer to the doc, Business and Domain Verification

    At this time, there is no formal process to request an early review outside of the scheduled review window. However, to maximize your chances of receiving further support, we recommend ensuring that all items in your verification checklist are completed and that your engagement score remains high, as these are key factors in determining continued eligibility.

    If your current credits have been fully utilized and you require urgent assistance, you may contact Microsoft for Startups support to inquire about a potential exception or expedited review.

    Please reach out to us if you have any other queries.
