  Hello!

  Thank you for reaching out. You can connect a domain without a plan, but in order for your domain to serve as your primary domain, you’ll need to have a paid plan. Otherwise, your domain will redirect to your free *.wordpress.com URL.

  I hope this clears up any confusion! Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or need assistance with anything else. We’re here to help!
