Hello Sir,

The Azure Credit is now active, and $2,000 has been credited to our organization account.

Currently, the payment method is showing our credit card. We would like to use the Azure Credits as the default payment method for our Azure usage.

Could you please share the steps to change the payment method and set Azure Credits as the default payment option?

We are waiting for your response, please treat this has on high priority and kindly do the needful.

    Hi Info,

    You do not need to set the $2,000 Azure credit as the default payment method. If the credit is correctly assigned to the billing profile/subscription, Azure automatically applies it to eligible usage before charging the credit card.

    The credit card can remain listed as the payment method. It is used for charges not covered by the credit or any remaining amount after the available credit is consumed.

    Please check Cost Management + Billing and confirm that the $2,000 credit is associated with the same billing profile used by your subscription. Also note that some charges, such as certain Marketplace products and support plans, may not be covered by Azure credits.

    Thank you, and feel free to respond back for more assistance.
