  WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for ecommerce transactions. And, the only things you can sell on WP.com blogs are products that you, yourself create and/or services that you personally provide. For ecommerce, you will need an independently hosted blog using WordPress.ORG software.

  For your selling your own creations on a free hosted WordPress.com blog see http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

  If and only if you are marketing only what you create and have a online shop with a shopping cart somewhere else online you can create a custom menu and add a custom link to it.
