How to Buy a Udemy Course

A step-by-step guide, from picking a course to activating it in your account

1

Step 1. Find a course on Udemy

Open udemy.com, find the course you want, and copy the link from the address bar. For example: https://www.udemy.com/course/react-the-complete-guide/

💡Copy the full course page link, not a search results link. To activate the course you will need a Udemy account created outside Russia (via VPN) — you can prepare one in advance in 2–3 minutes.

Step 2. Paste the link into ForUdemy

On the forudemy.com homepage, paste the link into the "Paste a Udemy course link" field and click "Check Price". The system will show the current price within seconds.

💡The price is calculated automatically, including any available discounts.

Step 3. Sign up or log in

You’ll need a ForUdemy account to make a purchase. Signing up takes less than a minute — just a username, email, and password.

💡Already have an account? Just log in.

Step 4. Enter the recipient’s details

Enter your Udemy username and an email address to receive the activation code. You can enter someone else’s details instead — the course becomes a gift.

💡Make sure the email is active — that’s where the code will be sent.

Step 5. Pay for the course

Choose a payment method: bank card (Visa, Mastercard, or Russian MIR cards), SBP, cryptocurrency, or your ForUdemy wallet balance.

💡All payments go through secure payment gateways.

Step 6. Activate the course on Udemy

The activation key arrives by email in about 2 minutes; 9 orders out of 10 arrive within the hour, and 24 hours is the outside limit. Turn on your VPN, sign in to a Udemy account created outside Russia, open the course page and redeem the key.

💡You can track your order status in your ForUdemy dashboard. If Udemy shows prices in rubles, the account is tied to Russia — the key will not activate there.
