I just got a promotional email from Sophia with a code that give new members $20 off their first month. It's valid for 30 days so should be good through 12th August.
At the checkout, use the code 'FRIEND20'
It says valid only for the first month. I do not know if the discount works on the multimonth packages. For sake of completeness its just a straight discount code, not a referral system in that I get no benefit

I already have an account (but not an active subscription) and the code worked for me. Only the 1 month subscription includes a slot for a promo code (not 6 or 12 month options).

LOL, it works for renewing my membership! Haha, I just renewed it for $79.20 - Well, finally got the time to do it, why not when there is a coupon code!

Thanks for the code. I will have to try it soon just to see if it's still valid by chance. Could you tell me what's the best way to go about signing up? I see the website already says "sign up for a free trial" so how does the coupon work?
I read the wiki already, but I'm not sure I understand how I can sign up for many courses but only be active in two? Are they on my dashboard but "locked" or something?

FAQ section from Sophia...
Are you limited to two courses each month?
"You can take as many courses as you'd like each month and are allowed to be active in two courses at the same time. "

That code is outdated. Use 'BTS22' for 25% off at the moment.
You can only have 2 active courses by default. As soon as you finish one you can self enroll into another, hence you can get through stacks in a month if you want to.
However, some courses also have touchstones which need to be graded. If you have two courses and have done everything such that you are just waiting for the grading, you can get in touch with them via live chat and they will manually add you into a third, fourth, fifth course etc.
