If I buy a .com domain for £15, do I have to upgrade my account or can I keep the website free and add a domain onto it?

Hi! Yes, you can keep the website free and add a domain onto it:

But domain mapping is a paid upgrade that costs $13.00 per domain, per year. This fee is unrelated to the amount you pay your registrar for your domain itself. You will need to remember to continue renewing your domain with your existing registrar even after you have mapped it to WordPress.com.

Domain Mapping is “telling” your domain where to point.
Yes, you will need it if you only want 1 domain.

What if I bought a domain from WordPress, can my account still stay free or do I have to upgrade my account?

You can cancel it after the first year. Actually, if you won’t pay for the next year, the domain will simply expire.
