Dear Support,

Because of help from your side in last 2 years I was able to create and launch 17 plus products, out of which 9 are doing good. We have paid users of all of them and the feedback of few products is making us feel pretty confident that few of the products will make big in next 1-2 years. I had self funded it all by myself, last 2.5 years to come this far. This STARTUP CREDITS helped me a lot as I didn't have to worry on that part at all. We have still lots of credits unutilized. To make it viable I have reengineered my expenses to $2 per day, in case I don't get extension. We only need traffic and organic growth and this startup credit if it can get extended by a year, the same credits I can assure you we will make pretty big. I dont have the connections to connect with some investor and I think I will not need also, only help I will need is the extension. Because running a startup is not easy and to fund it, I have joined a day job also which was necessary to keep this alive. You guys have helped me so far, just one last extension of a year will make sure we cross the line. Hoping for the best response from you on this on last time.

This is effort from one person. Users feedback is awesome, only traffic is a concern which I will focus on now and with your help it will be easy to achieve.

Thanks and Regards
Sujit

    Azure credits in Microsoft for Startups must be activated within 90 days, and once activated they are valid for up to two years. Extensions are not available.

    If the credits expire, the account automatically transitions to pay-as-you-go to avoid interruption.

    For Microsoft for Startups, additional credits can be unlocked over time based on verified progress, service adoption, usage patterns, and sustained Azure usage. Credit increases are reviewed over time and may vary by startup. Once requirements are met, the credit offer is updated automatically.

    If help is needed with the startup account or credit-related support actions, submit a support ticket from the Microsoft for Startups Portal:

    1. Sign in to the Microsoft for Startups Portal.
    2. Select the question mark in the top-right corner.
    3. Click Submit a Support Ticket.
