Is there any way to use WooCommerce for free?

My understanding is that WooCommerce is free to use. However, do you need to pay through wordpress in order to make an ecommerce site?
Thanks for any help

Hi there,
For a shopping cart you’ll need to install a plugin like the WooCommerce plugin. The ability to use plugins on WordPress.com is included in the Business Plan at $299 a year. This cost also includes the registration of one domain, or connecting a domain that you already own with another provider.
To get up and running, first visit My Site ->Plans and add the Business Plan to the WordPress.com site you want to use.
Next go to My Site ->Domains and add a custom domain to your site, or add a domain mapping upgrade if you already own the domain you want to use. Please note that in order to install plugins, a mapped domain must be pointed here using name servers, not A records.
Lastly, go to My Site ->Plugins, and install the shopping cart plugin you want to use. Then you can start adding content to your site.
Once you have the Business Plan you’ll also be able to access live chat support where one of my colleagues can walk you through this process step by step if needed.
Hope this was helpful!
