Register prepaid credit card with ##Question_Title##.00 for a website free for first year?

Question

microsoft is giving websites free for the first year with .com or .net .org .info , I was wondering if I put in my prepaid credit card with 0.00 on it if this would get me in trouble or if they would just cancel the site after 1 year

Answer 1

Wont get into trouble BUT if the card has a balance of $0.00 it will probably be declined. Even though you are registering for a free trial they will most likely put an authorization hold of $1.00 on the card to make sure that it is valid.
