Startup verification

We couldn’t verify your startup.We’ll switch you to a pay-as-you-go subscription once your remaining Azure credits run out or expire.

    Hi Pinebix Technologies

    If you have already received the initial $1,000 Azure for Startups credits, then the message means the startup verification step was not approved. As a result, your subscription will normally convert to pay-as-you-go when those credits expire or are exhausted. This does not affect the credits you have already received.

    Unfortunately, the verification process does not usually disclose the specific reason for the rejection. If you believe your startup meets the eligibility requirements, the best next step is to open a support request through the Microsoft for Startups or Azure Support portal and request a manual review of the verification decision.

    As this is a public community forum, we do not have access to your application details or verification records.
