You don’t.
There is no e-commerce capability here. There is no secure payments system here at wordpress.COM and you cannot add a shopping cart to sites hosted by wordpress.COM. See: Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress
https://move.wordpress.com/E-commerce plugin options have been removed here at WordPress.COM. Secure payment systems are not available here at wordpress.COM. You need a wordpress.ORG install. Please read this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/e-commerce-22?replies=17#post-2575955
Provided you are selling only what you yourself make or a service that you personally provide on a wordpress.COM site you have two options.
(1) PayPal – Know that the only instructions that will work for posting a PayPal donation button on a WordPress.com blog are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/
Note that the PayPal email link is not supported and PayPal customization options are not supported either https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/paypal-button-41?replies=12#post-2517229 This is not likely to be changed any time soon, if at all.(2) If you set up an eCommerce site somewhere else online you can create a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/ and include a custom link to that site in it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-custom-links
Some bloggers create a contact form https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/ on a page and after the people have made a PayPal donation they provide the link to a private page for downloading files. Maybe that will work for you.

https://move.wordpress.comWordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

I am going to stay on wordpress.com as I don’t think Shopify ecommerce is going to work for me because all my online store items are sold at the vendor’s site like my coffee mug on café press and they do the ecommerce secure selling and send the product to customer it is all automatic and I don’t have to do anything.
So how do I drive traffic to my http://www.wordpress.com coffee mug link below?
Thank you,
Hank

You can link to the product on Cafe Press, as you have done. Here’s everything else you need to know about monetizing on your WordPressdotcom site: https://en.support.wordpress.com/monetize-your-site/
How do you drive traffic to your site? There’s a lot of good information in this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-more-views-and-traffic/
Since we don’t allow advertising here in the forums, I’ve removed the link to your post. Thanks for your understanding.
