Ordering a "Microsoft Azure" Subscription

To start using the Microsoft Azure service, order a Subscription. For the general description of ordering a Subscription, see Buy subscription in the Customer Control Panel Guide.

Ordering the first Subscription to Microsoft services includes the following additional steps:

1. Accept the Microsoft Customer Agreement. On the Microsoft Agreement page:
   1. Look through the text of the agreement.
   2. Check the information about the Account that will be sent to Microsoft: name, position, and email of the Account.
   3. Select the I accept the agreement checkbox.

   4. Click Next.
      
      
      
      

      The acceptance of the agreement is also required if the Account already has Subscriptions to Microsoft services but the agreement is not accepted yet.

2. Create a new Microsoft Tenant or add an existing one:

   A Microsoft Tenant Name is a domain name used to order a Subscription, for example:

   • With subdomain: example.onmicrosoft.com
   • Without subdomain: example.com

   New Microsoft Tenant Names (domain names) are always created with the onmicrosoft.com subdomain. Existing Microsoft Tenant Names (domain names) may or may not have the onmicrosoft.com subdomain.

   Create a new Microsoft Tenant Name or select an existing one is only required for ordering your first Microsoft Subscription in the platform. For ordering subsequent Subscriptions, the previously entered data will be used.

   • To create a new Microsoft Tenant:

     1. Select Create new Microsoft Tenant Name.
        
        
        
        

     2. In the Domain name Office 365 field, enter the name of a subdomain (without dots). It will be to be attached to .onmicrosoft.com. The domain name is used to create your username (yourname@example.onmicrosoft.com).

        For example, if you enter example, the created domain will be: example.onmicrosoft.com

     If after clicking Next the Domain is not valid error occurred, it is recommended to also check information about the Account's company:

     • If an existing company of the Account is used:

       1. Go to the Account's company information page (see Account details).

       2. Make sure the Account email is correct.

       3. Make sure the Account address information is correct.

       4. Save the changes.
       5. Repeat the Subscription ordering procedure.
     • If a new company is created for the Account:

       1. Go back to the step with the Choose the company group (see Buy subscription).

       2. Make sure the Account email is correct.

       3. Make sure the Account address information is correct.

       4. Make the required changes.
       5. Complete the Subscription ordering procedure.

   • To order the first Subscription for an existing Microsoft Tenant:

     1. Select Add existing Microsoft Tenant Name.
        
        
        
        
     2. Select With Subdomain if your existing Microsoft Tenant Name ends with .onmicrosoft.com. Otherwise, select Without Subdomain.
     3. In the Domain name Office 365 field, enter your existing Microsoft Tenant Name:
        

        • With Subdomain: enter the name of the subdomain (without dots).

          For example, if your existing Microsoft Tenant Name is example.onmicrosoft.com, enter: example
