    There is no such upgrade that allows you to run advertising on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. To do that you need to hire a web host and set up a WordPress.org install for self hosting

    No blogger initiated advertising, retailing or reselling the work created or services provided by anyone other than yourself is allowed on free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. E-commerce transactions via shopping carts and the like cannot be conducted on free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM

    The advertising exceptions noted in support documentation are for high traffic blogs that qualify for and are accepted into the Ad Control program, and for extremely high traffic blogs that qualify and are accepted into the paid VIP hosting program.

    If you do require an ecommerce site, advertising and/or affiliate links you can hire a web host and get a free software install from http://wordpress.org Refer to > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Oh dear! I’m so sorry. I just realized that I was on autopilot and provided the wrong answer completely. I do apologize.

    There is no way to purchase any upgrade here without using an online method for payment.

    Not even if I were to be willing to jump through lots of inconvenient hoops and pay over the odds.

    They have sort of a one payment fits all, however I think Paypall might work and you can buy pre-paid debit cards at many stores that have the Visa or MasterCard logo on then and they work just like a credit card. I have a friend that does that for the little bit of online shopping they do, then they go down to the store and add a bit of money to the card when they need it. Sorry I can’t remember the store they use, but be careful of hidden charges. You should also be able to add a Debit card with the Visa or M/C logo to many bank accounts.
