  I have a domain at wix.com that I’d like to transfer to wordpress. If I want to only transfer my domain, is it still possible to use your free plan (and just pay for the domain through wordpress once it is transfered), rather than buying a yearly plan?

  WordPress.com is not able to accept incoming domain transfers. You can keep your domain at your current registrar and then point (map) it to your WordPress.com site, though that is a paid upgrade.
