Non Profit Website, WP Premium versus Business?
-
I am on the board of a non profit charity. I have volunteered to set up a website for the charity.
May I use a “Premium” blog on WordPress.com at only $99 per year or must I use the “Business” blog at $299 per year?
Thanks

You can use the plain free no upgrades version if you want –
Only buy the upgrades you need
My guess is you want a custom domain name, domain mapping (give you a cool easy to remember URL) and No Ads (on “free” blogs they will from time to time put ads to help pay the bills)
Both of the upgrades you ask about have all three of my suggestions in them –

Hi there,

You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and purchase upgrades at > Store > My Upgrades
Your billing history will be at Dashboard > Store > Billing History
Your options for payment are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/Note that the WordPress.COM free plan and the WordPress.COM Premium plan do not allow you to upload your own themes or plugins. WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for eCommerce transactions unless they have the $299. per year Business upgrade. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/ecommerce-is-now-available-on-wordpresscom?replies=1 See here for ecommerce details http://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/
A self-hosted WordPress site might be right for you. WordPress.ORG offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

I posted everything what’s possible (3 WordPress.COM plans, individual upgrades and the WordPress.ORG alternative) but I agree with what auxclass said here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/non-profit-website-wp-premium-versus-business?replies=3#post-1994592 -
