Microsoft Entra ID P1 (Non-Profit Pricing) — Pricing, Plans & What's Included

Microsoft Entra ID P1 (Non-Profit Pricing) is a standalone per-user identity and access management plan for eligible nonprofit tenants, because it adds paid Entra ID P1 capabilities such as Conditional Access and broader app access controls without requiring Entra ID P2. It is best for charities that need stronger sign-in governance, single sign-on planning, hybrid identity support, or self-service password reset planning for specific users.

Microsoft Entra ID P1 for nonprofits includes Entra ID P1 user rights for assigned users, because the license is purchased and assigned per user. Typical P1 capabilities include Conditional Access, single sign-on planning for integrated cloud and SaaS apps, self-service password reset capabilities, group-based access management including dynamic groups, and hybrid identity support, subject to the current Microsoft service description.

Microsoft Entra ID P1 does not include Microsoft Entra ID P2, because P2 is the higher identity plan for features such as Privileged Identity Management and Identity Protection risk-based scenarios. It also does not include Microsoft 365 desktop apps, Exchange mailboxes, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive storage, Microsoft Intune, or Microsoft Defender products unless those are licensed separately.

No, every user does not automatically need Microsoft Entra ID P1, because the license is assigned per user to people who need P1 capabilities. A charity should buy seats for users covered by P1 Conditional Access, SSO, self-service password reset, group, or hybrid identity requirements, and should avoid duplicate seats for users already covered by another qualifying Microsoft plan.

Maybe not, because some Microsoft 365 suites already include Entra ID P1 or include enough identity features for your requirement. Before buying standalone Microsoft Entra ID P1 (Non-Profit Pricing), a nonprofit should confirm whether its current Microsoft 365 licenses already cover the needed Conditional Access, SSO, self-service password reset, group, or hybrid identity capabilities.

A charity should choose Microsoft Entra ID P1 when the requirement is mainly Conditional Access and standard P1 identity management, because P1 is the lower standalone paid identity plan. Choose Microsoft Entra ID P2 instead if the nonprofit needs Privileged Identity Management, Identity Protection, user-risk or sign-in-risk scenarios, or risk-based Conditional Access that requires P2.

Yes, Microsoft Entra ID P1 can be used to require multifactor authentication through Conditional Access policies, because P1 includes Conditional Access for assigned users. If the policy depends on risk signals such as user risk or sign-in risk, confirm whether Microsoft Entra ID P2 is required before quoting P1.

Yes, Microsoft Entra ID P1 can support self-service password reset capabilities and hybrid identity scenarios, because P1 is commonly used by organizations connecting on-premises Active Directory with Microsoft Entra ID. Specific password reset, writeback, and hybrid configuration details should be validated against the current Microsoft service description before purchase.

No, Microsoft Entra ID P1 does not include Teams, Exchange mailboxes, Microsoft 365 desktop apps, SharePoint storage, or OneDrive storage, because it is a standalone identity plan rather than a productivity suite. If the nonprofit needs collaboration apps, mailbox services, or storage, it should evaluate a Microsoft 365 nonprofit suite instead of only Entra ID P1.

No, Microsoft Entra ID P1 by itself does not include Microsoft 365 Copilot, because Copilot is a separate Microsoft 365 add-on with its own qualifying base-license requirements. Entra ID is part of the identity foundation for Microsoft cloud access, but a charity still needs the appropriate Microsoft 365 licensing and Copilot eligibility confirmed before purchase.

No, Microsoft Entra ID P1 does not include Microsoft Intune or Microsoft Defender products, because it is licensed as a standalone identity and access management plan. A nonprofit that needs endpoint management, device compliance policies, endpoint protection, email security, or broader security operations should license those products separately or consider a Microsoft 365 security bundle.

Microsoft Entra ID P1 improves nonprofit sign-in security by enabling Conditional Access and related identity controls, because policies can control access using supported signals such as user, group, device, app, and location. It helps reduce identity risk, but it is not a full security suite and does not replace Defender, Intune, data protection, or Entra ID P2 risk-based identity features.

No, this listing is for the paid nonprofit-priced Microsoft Entra ID P1 SKU, because the CSP offer is separate from any donated grant entitlement. Charity pricing generally requires the tenant to have current Microsoft nonprofit eligibility, and eligibility should be confirmed before ordering.

No, the listed Microsoft Entra ID P1 nonprofit CSP offer does not include a trial, because the available Charity options are paid commitment choices. If a nonprofit wants to test a specific feature before purchase, it should ask IT Partner to confirm whether Microsoft currently offers any separate evaluation path or pilot approach.

Microsoft Entra ID P1 (Non-Profit Pricing) is available to Charity customers as a monthly commitment with monthly billing, an annual commitment paid upfront, or an annual commitment paid monthly, because the CSP configurator supports those payment structures. Annual upfront is typically the lowest listed per-seat option, annual paid monthly provides budget spreading, and monthly commitment provides the most flexibility.

You can usually add Microsoft Entra ID P1 seats during a term, because CSP subscriptions support increasing seat counts as needs grow. Reductions and cancellations are more limited: monthly commitments provide more frequent flexibility, while annual commitments generally restrict seat reductions after the cancellation window until renewal; confirm the current CSP rules with IT Partner before ordering.

A nonprofit should start Microsoft Entra ID P1 by confirming eligibility, reviewing existing licenses, assigning P1 only to required users, and piloting Conditional Access policies, because identity changes can affect sign-in behavior across Microsoft and SaaS apps. A staged rollout with report-only or limited-scope policies where available helps reduce lockout risk before enforcing controls broadly.

Yes, moving a CSP relationship for Microsoft Entra ID P1 to IT Partner should be an administrative licensing change with no tenant migration or user downtime, because the Microsoft tenant, identities, data, and service configuration remain in place. IT Partner can quote the same Microsoft nonprofit CSP offer available for eligible Charity tenants at the time of transfer, but the final subscription and pricing details should be confirmed in the quote.

A nonprofit should not assume Charity Microsoft Entra ID P1 is the same as GCC or GCC High, because government cloud environments have separate eligibility, compliance, residency, and procurement rules. If the organization has government contract, controlled data, or specific residency requirements, confirm with IT Partner whether a Government, GCC, or GCC High path is required before buying a Charity SKU.

Not automatically, because Microsoft Entra ID P1 (Non-Profit Pricing) is for eligible Charity tenants and is separate from Education and Commercial offers. Schools should evaluate Education licensing for student and faculty populations, and standard businesses or commercial affiliates should use Commercial licensing unless Microsoft eligibility specifically validates them for nonprofit pricing.
