  Hi there, do you want to use the domain on a WordPress.com hosted site or on the self-hosted open source platform?
  You can read more about the differences here. https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you would like to upload plugins on WordPres.com you would need to upgrade to the business plan. Here is the pricing. https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  You can then either map the domain to your WordPress.com site or transfer the domain to WordPress.com, follow this link to learn more about mapping or transfer. https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/all-about-domains/

  If you would like to use the open source WordPress software, You would need to set up hosting by a hosting provider like GoDaddy or Bluehost or any host of your choice.
  Hope this could help 😎
