With a WordPress.com Creator plan, you can sell individual items on your site with one-click payments. You can also create a full online store with rich eCommerce features, using WooCommerce.

Will I have to pay for a custom domain for my website?

Your free website includes a subdomain: sitename.wordpress.com.
