  To use your own domain on the wordpress.com platform you need a paid plan together with domain mapping.

  Hi there,

  In order to use your domain hosted elsewhere with your WordPress.com site, you’ll need to change the domain nameservers at your domain host, and point them over to WordPress.com. Our nameservers are:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Then, you’ll need to purchase the mapping subscription upgrade as a part of a paid plan so that you can map your domain over to your WordPress.com site.

  For instructions on both processes, please visit our support page:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/

  As @staartmees mentioned, assuming you want the custom domain to be the primary domain, you will need to purchase a paid plan with us:

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
