About Coursera Plus

Coursera Plus monthly ($59) or annual ($399, ~$33/mo). Unlocks 7,000+ courses, Specializations, Professional Certificates from Google, IBM, Meta, etc.

Refunds & billing

Coursera Plus offers a 14-day refund window on both monthly and annual plans, via help.coursera.org.

Common problems & troubleshooting

  • Cancelled mid-Specialization — you lose graded assignments and certificates not yet earned.
  • Auto-renew at $399 surprised users — Coursera does not email reminders aggressively.
  • Single-course payments separate — Coursera Plus doesn't cover every course (excluded: certain MasterTracks, degrees).

Coursera Plus FAQ

Will I keep my completed certificates?

Yes — completed certificates are yours forever, downloadable from your Coursera profile. In-progress courses become locked.

Can I finish a Specialization after cancelling?

No — you lose graded-assignment access. Finish the Specialization first, then cancel, to keep all certificates.

Is the annual plan worth $399?

Worth it if you finish 2+ Specializations a year ($49 each individually). Otherwise monthly or per-course is cheaper.
