  Could you please make a Paypal plugin available for blogs? I have a free account currently, but am planning to upgrade soon. Thank you very much.

  Online stores are not possible here. E-commerce transactions via shopping carts and the like cannot be conducted on free blogs from and being free hosted by WordPress.com.

  On free hosted WordPress.com blog we can use a contact form and/or a PayPal donation button for sale of only products or services created or provided by ourselves.

  There is no upgrade you can purchase from WordPress.com that changes any of that. If you do require an ecommerce site, shopping cart, advertising, affiliate links, paid or sponsored content you can hire a web host and get a free software install from http://wordpress.org

  That doesn’t matter at all. FTP access and plugins are only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.

  There is no FTP access to our free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we cannot install plugins. If you must have plugins then you have to hire a web host and set up your own WordPress.org install. Read the comparison here please > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
