Azure pricing FAQ

• What payment options do I have for purchasing Azure?
  Purchase Azure by using a credit card or opting to receive a monthly invoice. We don't accept prepaid or virtual credit cards. There may be a delay before discounts are reflected on your bill. You are solely responsible for any credit card interest or other credit card charges. If you choose to pay by invoice, you can't switch to the credit card option. For more information, explore our purchasing options.
• Are Azure services available prepaid?
  Yes. Prepay for Azure resources by purchasing a one- or three-year Azure reservation with a single upfront payment—you’ll also get a discount.
• What is an Azure plan?
  An Azure plan gives you access to Azure services at standard pay-as-you-go rates under your Microsoft Customer Agreement.
• What is the Microsoft Customer Agreement?
  The Microsoft Customer Agreement is a perpetual contract that doesn’t expire for transactional purchases. You accept your terms once, and the agreement is updated as you add products to your portfolio. Whether you make an Azure purchase from the website or from a Microsoft representative or partner, it falls under the same agreement.
