Updated August 24, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
Beginning in May, we are enhancing our trial offering for Visio (MC306669, December 2021) by allowing users to sign up for a trial license, or request for a paid license with their AAD account. This update gives admins oversight and control over self-service trials and license requests. It also removes the need for users to input payment information when initiating a Visio trial.
Previously, self-service trials required a user to input payment information, requiring admins to take additional steps to manage billing and licensing. With this new enhancement, users will be able to start a trial without payment information or submit a request for a license directly in-product. Once a request is submitted by a user, admins will see a notification on the Microsoft 365 admin center’s home page.
To access the license request page in the admin center, go to the Billing > Licenses page, then select the Requests tab. Multiple requests can be approved/rejected at once.
[When this will happen:]
These capabilities will be rolled out starting late July 2023 (previously mid-July) and expected to complete by mid-October 2023 (previously mid-August 2023).
