  Hi I already have a domain name with another service provider. If I choose the option to switch it over to Word Press, what will the cost be?

  Hi there,

  What’s the domain name so staff can determine if it qualifies to be transferred.

  If you do the Domain Transfer yourself, there will be no charge for the transfer.

  But, if the transfer is done for you, there’s a one-off charge.

  Once the domain is transferred, WordPress.com will become the new registrar, you will be able to manage the domain from your WordPreess.com account, and all subsequent renewals will be done through WordPress.com.

  The alternative transferring is mapping, and it’s also a free service.

  For any of this to be possible, you’ll need to have an upgraded WordPress.com Plan on your account.
