I have 2 subscriptions on Azure, both of which have MSDN credit associated to each subscription.
At the moment each subscription has an equal amount of credit, however all my virtual machines and cloud services reside on one of the subscriptions, meaning the credit runs down a lot quicker than the other available subscription.
Is there any way to transfer or migrate credit across subscriptions, so I can make the most of the credit available?

When you define your management group hierarchy, first create the root management group. Then move all existing subscriptions in the directory into the root management group. New subscriptions always go into the root management group initially. Later, you can move them to another management group.
Organizations often use multiple Azure subscriptions to avoid per-subscription resource limits and to better manage and govern their Azure resources. It's important to define a strategy for scaling your subscriptions.
Organizations can have multiple subscriptions for Microsoft's cloud offerings. Figure 1 shows a single organization that has multiple Microsoft 365 subscriptions, a Dynamics 365 subscription, and multiple Azure subscriptions.
Companies can create multiple subscriptions. This way resources can be owned and managed by the people who are local to it. There is also a limit within azure at subscription level.
You can't transfer free credit between them. The idea of the MSDN credit is for Development and test (not production) purposes for the individuals who have the subscription, so things should be torn down regularly anyway.
There is such a thing as "Organizational Accounts" coming into azure (I think it's still in preview. Although that doesn't unify individual allowances, it does allow control over the individual's accounts.
