    Hi mirrormosaicart

    You need not to cancel your old domain just check the availability of the domain you want to register.

    All your Post or Page URL will automatically will be updated according to your custom domain and traffic will also redirected to the custom domain from the old domain.

    If you have the domain already registered with you anywhere else then you have two options to use that domain to your website:

    1. Transferring the domain register with someone else to WordPress.com. Here is the support document for transferring your domain to WordPress.com: https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/prepare-domain-for-transfer/
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/

    Please follow the steps in the above link to get your domain transferred.

    One important thing is Transfer of domain can be done only if your domain is 60 days old (period varies for each registrar you can check this with your domain registrar) If your domain is not free from the initial period in which you can make your domain transfer as per your domain registrar then we can map this domain to the WordPress site.

    2. Mapping your existing domain Here is the support document for this that will help you in mapping your domain with WordPress:

    – Firstly you need to upgrade your site to WordPress paid plans as we can’t add the Custom domain to free plan.
    To know more about the plan features and pricing please visit the link below: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

    Each paid plan comes with a free domain credit you can use to either register a new domain, or either transfer or map one you already own.

    Let me know if you need any help

    Hope this helps.
