  • Hi –

    Yes, that’s true. In order to use plugins on the managed hosting environment that we offer at WordPress.com our business plan is required. See here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

    Understand that there’s 2 different versions of WordPress. What we do here at WordPress.com is different from using the open source WordPress.org software. With that option, it is truly free, and you can use plugins. It’s more technical to maintain and you’ll need to provide your own hosting and your own tech support with the site.

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
