How to Cancel — Step by Step
- 1Log into your Coursera account.
- 2Go to your Purchases.
- 3Under the 'Subscriptions' tab, find your Coursera Plus subscription and click 'Cancel subscription'.
- 4To get the annual-plan refund, go to Purchases → Purchase History, click 'Request refund' under 'Payment Status', then click 'Yes, cancel and get a refund' (within 14 days of payment).
Billed Through a Third Party?
- If you started your subscription in the Coursera mobile app, it is managed by Apple or Google Play; cancel it there, not on Coursera.org.
- For purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play, that store's refund policy applies and Coursera cannot process the refund.
Reactivating Your Account
- Your course progress and grades are saved after you cancel; to restart, upgrade to the paid version of your course.
Additional Notes
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you retain access to Coursera Plus content for the remainder of that period; after that, courses switch to preview mode.
- Canceling stops future payments but doesn't refund past payments; refunds must be requested separately.
- Certificates earned during the 14-day refund window are no longer accessible if you get a refund for the annual plan.
- Coursera Plus subscriptions don't auto-cancel when you finish your courses, and subscriptions can't be paused.
- Refunds, when approved, may take 7–10 business days to appear in your account.

Coursera no longer offers refunds for monthly Coursera Plus subscriptions
Just a heads-up for anyone considering a Coursera Plus *monthly* subscription. I recently signed up for a free trial and forgot to cancel before it ended. The next day after I was charged (€41), I contacted Coursera support to request a refund. They refused, citing their updated policy: > This me

Hi all, I have a yearly Coursera plus subscription that will expire on the 29th of Jan, I would like to renew it now since there's a 50% discount going on, but since I still have a valid plus subscription it says it's going to charge the full price of plus when it renews.

I only noticed I’d been charged $59 after the fact, and discovered their refund policy doesn’t cover monthly Coursera Plus subscriptions.
