  What is the domain name you’re trying to transfer?

  I have disconnected the domain from WIX. Domain should be owned by google as I bought it Google Domains. I tried again to pay for the Premium Plan today and it did not allow me, giving me the same error message: “Cannot transfer in Premium Domains” Please advise.

  In that case leave the domain where it is and map it to a WordPress.com site instead.

  Thanks @themagicrobot. That’s correct.

  
  @contact29260dda46, do you need more help? Here’s how to map:

  It’s free with a paid plan, so just opt for mapping instead of a transfer.
