Why isn't my Coursera promo code working correctly at checkout?

The promo code may be restricted to Coursera Plus subscriptions only, or specific Professional Certificates. Also, many codes are for new users. If you are trying to apply a 'First Month Free' offer to an existing active subscription, the system will reject the code.

Does Coursera offer a free trial for Coursera Plus?

Yes. Coursera Plus monthly subscriptions typically come with a 7-day free trial. This gives you unlimited access to over 7,000 courses. You must cancel before the seventh day ends to avoid being charged the first month's fee. Annual plans usually have a refund period instead.

What is the refund policy for individual course purchases?

For individual course payments, you can request a full refund within 14 days of payment, provided you have not already earned a Course Certificate. If you have completed the course and received the certificate, you are no longer eligible for a refund regardless of the timeframe.

Can I get financial aid for Coursera Plus subscriptions?

Financial Aid is generally available for individual courses, not the Coursera Plus subscription bundle. You must apply for aid on each specific course page. If approved, you can access that single course for free or at a deep discount, but it won't unlock the full catalog.

Are there renewal discounts for existing Coursera subscribers?

Generally no. Renewals process at the standard rate. However, Coursera sometimes emails special 'Win Back' offers to cancelled subscribers. If you cancel your plan, keep an eye on your email for a discounted offer to rejoin Coursera Plus at a reduced monthly or annual price.

How do I cancel my Coursera Plus subscription effectively?

Go to your 'My Purchases' section in Settings and find the active subscription. Click 'Cancel Subscription' and follow the prompts. You will retain access until the end of your current billing period. Ensure you receive a cancellation confirmation email to verify the process is complete.

Can I switch from a monthly to annual plan?

Yes. You can switch plans in your settings. The change typically takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. Switching to annual is recommended as it offers significant long-term savings compared to paying the higher monthly rate for twelve consecutive months.

Do they offer a student discount for Coursera?

Yes. Coursera often creates free or discounted programs for university students using a valid school email. Under the 'Coursera for Students' program, you may get one free course per year or unlimited guided projects. Check their student page to verify your .edu email eligibility.

What happens to my certificates if I cancel subscription?

Any certificates you earned and completed while subscribed remain yours forever. You can access, print, and share them even after your subscription ends. However, you will lose access to the paid course materials and graded assignments for any uncompleted courses once the billing cycle finishes.

Does Coursera accept prepaid cards for subscription payments?

Coursera generally accepts major credit cards and PayPal. Prepaid cards are often accepted if they are issued by Visa or MasterCard and support recurring international transactions. However, these can sometimes fail for recurring billing, so a standard bank card or PayPal is more reliable.
