There are a few different ways to cancel Coursera, and the right one depends on how you signed up. This guide covers cancellation through the Coursera website, app stores, and third-party billing.
Most Coursera users can cancel directly through their account settings. However, if you subscribed through an app store or received Coursera through a university program, you'll need to cancel through the original provider instead.
Follow these steps to cancel your Coursera subscription directly. If you're billed through a third party, see the alternative methods section.
Go to coursera.org and sign in with your email and password. Make sure you're using the same account that has the active subscription.
Click your profile picture in the top right corner, then select Settings from the dropdown menu.
In the left sidebar, click on Subscriptions. You'll see all your active Coursera subscriptions listed here.
Find the subscription you want to cancel and click Cancel Subscription. You may need to complete a brief survey about your cancellation reason.
Review the cancellation details and click Yes, Cancel to confirm. You'll receive an email confirmation and maintain access until your current billing period ends.
A few things that might affect your Coursera cancellation depending on your subscription type.
These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.
Look at your credit card statement to see if you're being charged by Coursera directly, Apple, Google, or another provider. You'll need to cancel through whoever is actually charging you.
After cancelling, you keep full access to Coursera Plus until your current billing period expires. You won't be charged for the next cycle.
Removing the Coursera app from your phone doesn't cancel your subscription. You need to cancel through your account settings or the app store where you subscribed.
If cost or time are issues, you might be able to pause or switch plans instead of cancelling completely.
If you can't cancel through your Coursera account, you may need to go through app stores or third-party providers. The right option depends on how you're being billed.
