Azure credits — buy or sell through AI Credit Mart
What Azure credits are, how they work, the different types available, and how you can buy them below retail or sell unused credits for cash through AI Credit Mart.
Azure credits are prepaid balances that can be used to pay for any Microsoft Azure service — virtual machines, storage, databases, AI services, networking, and more. They work like a wallet balance: you apply credits to your Azure account and they get consumed as you use Azure resources.
Companies and individuals acquire Azure credits in many ways: through direct purchases from Microsoft, startup programs, enterprise agreements, accelerator grants, or partner promotions. The credits are tied to an Azure subscription and typically have an expiry date.
The problem? Many organisations end up with more Azure credits than they can use before they expire. That’s where AI Credit Mart comes in — we connect sellers with unused Azure credits to buyers who want Azure capacity at below-retail pricing.
Credits purchased directly from Microsoft or through a reseller. Applied to your Azure subscription and consumed as you use services. The most common type — flexible and usable across all Azure products.
Credits that come with a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement — a multi-year contract typically used by larger organisations. EA credits often come in large blocks and can go partially unused when cloud needs change.
Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment credits — part of a spend commitment where an organisation agrees to consume a minimum amount of Azure over a set period. Unused MACC capacity is one of the most common sources of surplus credits.
Credits specifically for Azure-hosted AI services including Azure OpenAI Service. As companies adopt AI at different speeds than planned, Azure OpenAI credits frequently go unused.
Credits from Microsoft for Startups, Microsoft Founders Hub, or similar programs. Typically $1k–$150k in free Azure credits. Many startups receive these but build their stack on a different cloud provider.
Azure credits granted through accelerator programs like Y Combinator, Techstars, or Microsoft partner incentives. These are often time-limited and go unused when the startup’s focus shifts.
Virtual Machines, Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), App Services, Azure Functions, Container Instances — any compute workload running on Azure infrastructure.
Azure OpenAI Service, Azure Machine Learning, Cognitive Services, AI Search — all Azure-hosted AI products can be paid for with credits.
Azure SQL Database, Cosmos DB, Synapse Analytics, Data Factory, Stream Analytics — credits cover the full Azure data platform.
Blob Storage, Azure CDN, Virtual Network, ExpressRoute, Azure Front Door, Load Balancer — infrastructure at every layer.
Azure Active Directory, Key Vault, Sentinel, Defender for Cloud — security services are covered by Azure credits.
Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions (Azure-hosted runners), Azure Monitor, Application Insights — the full developer and operations toolkit.

Yes. Most Azure credits have an expiry date. Startup program credits typically expire 12 months after activation. Enterprise Agreement and MACC credits expire at the end of the contract term. Once expired, unused credits are lost — which is why selling them before expiry makes sense.
Azure credits themselves are non-transferable by default. However, the value can be transferred through legitimate business mechanisms — sub-contracting, reseller arrangements, and managed service structures. AI Credit Mart handles this process for you.
An Azure subscription is your account — it’s where your resources live and where billing happens. Azure credits are a payment method applied to a subscription. Credits get consumed automatically as you use Azure resources, reducing or eliminating your cash bill.
Yes. Azure credits can be used for Azure OpenAI Service, including API calls, fine-tuning, and dedicated capacity. This is one of the most in-demand uses of Azure credits right now.
Log into the Azure portal, go to Cost Management + Billing, and select your subscription. Your credit balance and expiry date are shown under the Credits section. You can also check via the Azure CLI or billing API.
Yes. While credits can’t be directly transferred, value can be moved through legitimate business mechanisms that work within Microsoft’s framework. AI Credit Mart only uses methods that comply with Azure’s terms. No accounts are transferred, no ToS violations.
No. We never contact Microsoft or disclose identities. The transfer mechanisms we use are standard business arrangements that don’t trigger any notifications. Your Microsoft relationship stays completely intact.
They’re gone. Expired credits cannot be recovered or extended. That’s why selling unused credits before expiry is the smart move — you recover cash value instead of losing the credits entirely.
