  Hi, I see on the support page the instructions for getting a Donate paypal button on a wordpress.com site. But is there a way to get a Pay Now button? When I tried to create a Pay Now button, there was no option for an Email link, only a web form.
  Thanks,
  Karen

  No I’m sorry but you cannot. WordPress.com blogs cannot be equiped for ecommerce. they cannot be used to drive traffic to 3rd party sites and the types of blogs allowed here are limited. Although WordPress.com does support authors, artisans, atrists, etc,. that export does not extending to reselling or to retailing. Consequently we can only have a PayPaly sonation button. In addition we can have a contact forum

  I apologize for the typos above “export” was meant to be “support” and “atrists” was meant to be “artists”.
