We embed videos into pages and posts and no upgrade is required unless or until you exceed your free media space allocation. https://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/The video embeds in posts and pages that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required are found here.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/Video shortcodes are here http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video
Note to post your own videos requires a videopress upgrade unless they are on youtube or another source site that is supported and the videopress support doc location is https://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/ As a workaround, keep in mind that you can also upload your media to another service like youtube videos and insert it into your posts from there.
Example:
For youtube embedding into wordpress.COM blogs see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/For using the shortcode see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#embedding-with-a-shortcode
For troubleshooting see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#troubleshooting
NOTE: If you are trying to embed a youtube channel code that will not work.

Hi there, In order to upload a video directly to your WordPressdotcom site, it requires either the annually renewed Premium or Business Plan, both of which include additional storage space and VideoPress. Premium includes an additional 10GB of storage to the free 3GB (total 13GB) and Business has unlimited storage.
https://wordpress.com/pricing/
https://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/timethief has given you information on alternatives for displaying videos without the need for an additional upgrade plan.
Let us know if you have any more questions about that.
