I also learned that on WordPress.com, the managed hosting powered by Automattic, you can install any WordPress plugin you like if you select the business plan. So you can now e.g. have your WordPress.com hosted WooCommerce site starting at €24.92 (CHF 27.50) per month. I bet you didn’t know that, did you?
