Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Grab4Free and free Udemy courses
About Free Coupons
Are the free Udemy coupons on Grab4Free legitimate?
Yes, all coupons on Grab4Free are 100% legitimate and verified. We manually test each coupon before publishing to ensure it works. We source coupons from:
- Official instructor promotions
- Udemy partnerships and promotions
- Instructor social media and newsletters
- Verified coupon submission channels
Why do free Udemy coupons expire?
Udemy instructors create free coupons with built-in expiration dates and enrollment limits. This is by design—instructors use free coupons to:
- Promote new courses and get initial reviews
- Reward their newsletter subscribers or community members
- Generate word-of-mouth marketing
- Reach new audiences through coupon sites
Once the expiration date passes or the enrollment limit is reached, the coupon stops working. That's why we recommend enrolling quickly when you find a free course you want.
How often do new free coupons appear?
New coupons appear daily. Instructors release coupons on their own schedules, often coinciding with course launches, updates, or promotional events. We check for and publish new coupons multiple times per day to keep our listings fresh.
Are all Udemy courses available for free?
No. Free coupons are created at the instructor's discretion. Some instructors frequently release free coupons; others never do. Popular, high-production courses from well-known instructors are less likely to have free coupons, while newer instructors often use free coupons to build their student base and reviews.
What's the difference between free coupons and Udemy sales?
Free coupons (100% off): Created by instructors, make courses completely free. These are what we primarily list on Grab4Free.
Udemy sales: Platform-wide discounts where courses are reduced to $9.99-$19.99. These happen frequently (almost monthly) but courses aren't free—just heavily discounted.
Using Coupons
How do I use a coupon from Grab4Free?
Using our coupons is simple:
- Find a course you're interested in on our site
- Click the "Enroll Free" or "Get Coupon" button
- You'll be taken directly to the Udemy course page with the coupon applied
- Verify the price shows as "Free" or $0
- Click "Enroll Now" to add the course to your Udemy account
The coupon code is embedded in the URL—you don't need to copy and paste anything.
Do I need a Udemy account?
Yes, you need a free Udemy account to enroll in courses. If you don't have one, you can create it during the enrollment process. Udemy accounts are free and only require an email address.
Do I need to enter credit card information for free courses?
No. Legitimate free courses never require payment information. If a "free" course is asking for your credit card, something is wrong—either the coupon has expired, or you're on a fake website. Always verify you're on the official udemy.com domain before entering any information.
Can I use multiple coupons for the same course?
No, only one coupon can be applied per course. If a course already has a coupon applied and you try to use another, the new coupon will replace the previous one. However, once you've enrolled in a course (even for free), you don't need any coupons—you have lifetime access.
Can I enroll on my phone?
Yes! Our site works on mobile devices, and Udemy's website and app support mobile enrollment. The process is the same—click our link, verify the price is free, and enroll.
Course Access & Certificates
Do I get lifetime access to free courses?
Yes! When you enroll in a Udemy course (free or paid), you get lifetime access to that course content. Even if the coupon expires after you enroll, you'll still have access to the course forever. The course appears in your Udemy library, and you can watch it as many times as you want.
Do free courses include certificates?
Yes, most free courses include a certificate of completion, the same as paid courses. Once you complete all the course content (watch all videos, complete all resources), you can download your certificate from Udemy.
Note: Udemy certificates prove completion, not mastery—they don't involve proctored exams or skill assessments. For more on certificate value, see our blog post: Are Udemy Certificates Worth It?
Is the content of free courses the same as paid courses?
Yes, when you enroll with a 100% off coupon, you get the exact same content as someone who paid full price. There's no "free version" with limited content—you get everything.
Can I download course videos for offline viewing?
Yes, through the Udemy mobile app. You can download course content to watch offline, which is great for learning during commutes or when you don't have internet access. Desktop viewing requires an internet connection.
What happens if a course is updated after I enroll?
You get access to all updates for free. When instructors add new content, fix errors, or update materials, you'll see those changes automatically in your enrolled course. This is true whether you paid for the course or enrolled with a free coupon.
About Grab4Free
How does Grab4Free make money?
We participate in the Udemy affiliate program. When you click through our site and later purchase a paid course on Udemy, we may earn a small commission. This doesn't cost you anything extra—the price is the same whether you use our link or go directly to Udemy.
Important: We don't earn commissions on free course enrollments. We list free courses because they help learners, not because they generate revenue. See our Affiliate Disclosure for complete details.
How do you verify coupons?
Our verification process includes:
- Source verification: We confirm the coupon comes from a legitimate source
- Code validation: We check the coupon code format and existence
- Price check: We verify the discount is actually 100% off
- Enrollment test: We test that the course can be enrolled
- Ongoing monitoring: We check for and remove expired coupons
For more details, see our blog post: How We Verify Free Udemy Coupons
Can I submit a coupon to be listed?
Yes! If you're an instructor or have found a working coupon, you can submit it through our contact page. We verify all submissions before publishing to ensure they work and meet our quality standards.
Is Grab4Free affiliated with Udemy?
We participate in Udemy's affiliate program, but we are not owned by, operated by, or officially partnered with Udemy. We are an independent site that aggregates and verifies publicly available coupons.
Troubleshooting
The coupon says it's expired. What should I do?
Unfortunately, if a coupon has expired, it cannot be used. This happens when:
- The expiration date has passed
- The enrollment limit has been reached
- The instructor has deactivated the coupon
We remove expired coupons as quickly as possible, but with thousands of coupons, some may expire before we can update our listings. If you find an expired coupon, please let us know so we can remove it.
The course shows a price instead of free. What's wrong?
This usually means:
- Coupon expired: Check if a new coupon is available
- Browser cache: Try clearing your cookies or using an incognito/private window
- Regional restrictions: Some coupons may not work in all countries
- Enrollment limit reached: Too many people enrolled before you
If you see a price, do not pay unless you want to. Come back to Grab4Free to check for alternative coupons or wait for a new one to be released.
I can't find the course in my Udemy library after enrolling.
Try these steps:
- Make sure you completed the enrollment (clicked the final "Enroll" button)
- Check that you're logged into the correct Udemy account
- Refresh your Udemy library page
- Check your email for enrollment confirmation from Udemy
- Search for the course name in your Udemy learning section
If it's still missing, contact Udemy Support directly—they can help with account-specific issues.
The link doesn't work / goes to an error page.
This can happen if:
- The course has been removed from Udemy
- The URL has changed
- There's a temporary Udemy issue
Please report the broken link so we can fix it. Include the course name and the page where you found it.
