Tips & Things to Watch For

Black Friday / Cyber Monday Deep Discounts

Pro Tip

Coursera Plus typically goes on sale during Black Friday/Cyber Monday for 30-50% off (around $199-279 instead of $399). If you're not in a hurry, waiting for these sales can save significant money. Sales also occur during New Year and back-to-school seasons.

Refund Policy - 14 Days for Annual Subscriptions

Pro Tip

Based on Coursera's standard refund policy (referenced in TOS but not fully displayed), annual Coursera Plus subscriptions typically offer a 14-day refund window from the purchase date. If you cancel within 14 days of payment, you can get a full refund even after accessing content.

What to Expect

Dark Patterns to Watch

  • Subscription settings may be nested in account settings rather than prominently displayed
  • May show benefits you'll lose upon cancellation
  • Multiple navigation layers to reach cancellation option
  • Terms emphasize arbitration and class action waiver prominently but refund policy requires separate navigation

Retention Tactics

  • Displays list of courses and certificates you'll lose access to
  • Shows number of courses available with subscription
  • May highlight learning progress that will be affected
  • Emphasizes loss of unlimited access to 10,000+ courses
Typical offer: Potential discount offer or pause option (not explicitly documented)
