  Hello there. Plugins are not allowed on WordPress.com-hosted sites. If you would like to create a store that requires plugins, you will have to move to a self-hosted site via WordPress.org.

  Here are details about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Should you choose to launch a self-hosted site, this guide will step you through the process of moving your site to a WordPress.org instance:

  As we only support sites hosted here at WordPress.com, all issues with the new site – including the importing of the file – must be taken to the WordPress.org support community:

  If you’d like assistance moving your WordPress.com site to WordPress.org, we have a service called Guided Transfer that does all the work for you. Check it out to see if it’s right for you:

  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much.
