  Do I have to transfer or map my domain to use WP? This is not the same as hosting, right?

  It all depends on what you already have. If you have a domain name and hosting, you must install the open source wordpress.org.
  If you don’t have hosting and you want to connect your domain, you need a paid wordpress.com plan with domain mapping or a domain transfer, https://wordpress.com/support/domain-mapping-vs-domain-transfer/
