Directory Website
-
Hi there, I would like to setup a directory website aimed at Home renovators where companies can purchase two types of memberships that will allow them to create an account, upload their business details and logo, contact details, product/services offered, social media profiles as well as allow the public to review their company if they had made use of their services. This will be a paid membership so they should also be allowed to make an online payment through the website where an invoice will be sent each month unless they cancel their membership. Before I fully commit, I would like to know if WordPress offers such themes and plugins for me to use?

In short, yes it does. Provided you have the technical know-how or you’re willing to invest time to learn you can build that website.
WordPress.com is extremely versatile and you can pretty much build anything you want with it. You can find many themes and plugins that will help you achieve this goal. Depending on the complexity you’re aiming for you might need professional help if you’re not code-savvy.
Your other consideration should be what plan you will need. Only Business and the eCommerce plan allow you to use plugins that aren’t in-built. The same applies to collecting payments.
I suggest you read these articles to get you going on the right path:
