Hello Microsoft Support, I completed the Microsoft Power Platform Virtual Training Day: Fundamentals and received my confirmation email on September 20th stating I am eligible for a 50% codeless discount on the PL-900 exam. I am using the exact same email address for my Microsoft Learn profile and exam registration, but the discount does not apply on the Pearson VUE checkout Screenshot 2026-11-02 100115

    Submit a Microsoft Credentials Support request for account-level investigation, because the PL-900 event discount should appear automatically at Pearson VUE checkout and cannot be manually linked through Microsoft Q&A.

    Submit the support request

    1. Open Credentials support.
    2. Select online support request.
    3. Complete the form with:
      • Product family: Learning
      • Product or Service: Microsoft Credentials
      • Category: The closest available exam discount, voucher, or registration category
      • Type of Support: Professional No Charge
      • Preferred contact method: Email
      • Your location and time zone
    4. Include:
      • Your Microsoft Learn username, found in Learn Settings
      • Exam: PL-900: Microsoft Power Platform Fundamentals
      • Event name and attendance date
      • Date of the eligibility email
      • A statement that the Pearson VUE cart displays the full price without the promised 50% reduction
      • The event completion email, registration confirmation, and checkout screenshot
      • The approximate date and time of the failed checkout attempt

    Credentials Support handles other Microsoft Certification issues and accepts screenshots for technical or account investigation.^1^

    Do not post your email address, account identifiers, or unredacted screenshots publicly. Those details should be supplied only in the private support case.

    Expected redemption behavior

    For an event-attendee discount, the documented registration process is:

    1. Select Schedule exam from the PL-900 exam page.
    2. Sign in to the relevant Microsoft Learn profile.
    3. Complete the Transfer to Pearson VUE dialog.
    4. Select Submit and finish choosing the exam options.
    5. Continue to the Pearson VUE cart and checkout.

    If the account is eligible, the discount is applied during checkout.^2^ The Add Voucher or Promo Code option applies only when an actual voucher code was issued; the event-attendee flow does not require inventing or obtaining a code.

    Microsoft’s event-discount guidance identifies Microsoft Virtual Training Day – Power Platform Fundamentals as using the email registered for the event.^3^ Since that email match has already been confirmed, repeating it or changing profiles is not the next step.

    Avoid completing payment at the undiscounted amount while the case is being reviewed. Microsoft Q&A moderators cannot access certification-account backends; Credentials Support is the channel that can investigate the eligibility association.
