    Paying for a domain mapping upgrade is only one step in the process. Please follow the instructions in step 5:

    5. To activate your new domain, select the button next to the one you wish to activate and click Update Primary Domain. Your blog will be accessible from both of these domains; the Primary Domain is what actually appears as your domain within the address bar of web browsers. If you do not see your blog at the new domain immediately, please allow some time for the DNS changes to propagate. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/register-domain/#instructions-for-registering-a-new-domain-for-your-blog

    From your WP.com dashboard, go to Store > Domains. Then follow the instructions quoted by timethief.

    Dashboard->Domains. It's in the left sidebar of your dashboard.

    Works fine for me to your new domain name - it can take 24 to 72 hours for the changes to reach the far corners of the internet
