UPDATE: According to Coursera’s Help Center, the option to subscribe to the entire Coursera catalog is no longer available: Coursera subscriptions
Coursera first introduced subscriptions for their Specialization Programs in October 2016, allowing learners to purchase access to all content in a Specialization on a month-by-month or annual basis.

All subscriptions also entitle you to a 7-day free trial.
