Signing Up With Azure

Let’s create and set up a free subscription Azure account and learn to manage it.

Creating an Azure account

In the previous lesson, we learned how to create a Microsoft account. Every user who has a Microsoft account can sign up for an Azure account. For their first Azure account, everyone gets a free $200 credit for the first month. Popular services like Azure VMs, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Blob Storage are free for 12 months. After one month, it’s a pay-as-you-go model.

Students (without credit cards) get a free $100 credit for the first month (credit cards are not involved).
