  Hi there. We can’t install ANY plugins on WordPress.com. There is no upgrade that will give you that ability. http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  I’m afraid I don’t know of any way to insert a video gallery. I don’t think it’s possible.

  Yes it is possible. See http://www.greenfees.info/

  That is a web site based on WordPress.
  It uses a video gallery plugin.

  If I can get access to wp-content/plugins/ I can do it
  How do I get access to wp-content/plugins/?

  Hi. As kokkieh has said, the sites you are referring to are using WordPress.ORG and not WordPress.COM. You cannot install third party plugins on WordPress.COM I’m afraid. Find out more here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Thanks,
  Tom

  The correct answer has been provided by kokkieh and it is no.

  There is not now nor has there every been a button like that on WordPress.com hosted blogs , so be clear on that please. You are confusing WordPress.COM hosted blogs and WordPress.ORG software installs.

  To create our own galleries and/or slideshows in posts and pages on WordPress.COM hosted blogs see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/

  There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
