Visual Studio Enterprise Subscriptions provide you with Azure’s integrated tools, pre-built templates, and managed services which make it easier to build and manage enterprise, mobile, web, and Internet of Things (IoT) apps faster.

Monthly Azure credits for Visual Studio subscribers


Expand

  • Monthly Azure credits for Visual Studio subscribers are specifically for individual dev/test usage only. To run production workloads, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid Azure subscription, such as pay-as-you-go pricing.

  • You can use your current work account to sign in if your organization uses Azure Active Directory, such as if you’re using Office 365. For more details, see the Using Work Accounts FAQ.

  • There is no cost to use these credits. They are included in your Visual Studio subscription. When you run out of the credit that’s allotted for the month, you won’t be able to continue using it until it resets the next month.

  • Azure subscriptions created via the Visual Studio Subscriptions benefit may be impacted by restrictions that aren’t imposed on paid subscriptions. Certain geographies may not be available for creating VMs and Azure services, and certain service types may not be available. There may be a lower default quota than on paid subscriptions.

  • Credit pooling is not available. This benefit is intended for personal use by the Visual Studio subscriber.

  • The monthly Azure credit for Visual Studio subscribers is for development and testing only and does not carry a financially backed SLA. We reserve the right to suspend any instance (VM or cloud service) that runs continuously for more than 120 hours or if we determine that the instance is being used for production. We are making this capacity available to Visual Studio subscribers on a best-effort basis; there is no guarantee of capacity availability.

    The monthly credit does not apply toward purchase of the following services:

    • Support plans
    • Application Insights
    • Visual Studio subscriptions
    • Azure DevOps
    • Visual Studio App Center
    • Third-party branded products
    • Products sold through the Visual Studio Marketplace
    • Products otherwise sold separately from Azure (for example, Azure Active Directory Premium)

    To purchase these services, you’ll need to remove your spending limit and provide a credit card for billing.
