  I purchased template through another company to create a site through WordPress. I no longer want hosting through that company and I’d like to pay for hosting through WordPress. I currently have a domain that will need to be connected to the site.

  See link below of the account website information. Please let me know what the next steps would be.

  I don’t have a site linked to this WordPress.com account

  You can’t transfer a wpengine subdomain as yours.
  You must buy our WordPress Pro plan and choose a custom domain, https://wordpress.com/pricing/.
  To transfer your site over here, https://wordpress.com/support/import/import-an-entire-wordpress-site/

  Thank you!!!! I will do that asap. I was really worried that I wouldn’t be able to transfer the site over so this helps a lot!!!
