  Hi,

  A:

  You can point the domain you registered at WordPress.com to another server (hosting service), with these steps:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/change-name-servers/

  You’ll need to obtain the name server values from your current host. You should be able to find them on their support documentation, or contact them and ask for the information. (Name servers may be referred as “nameservers” or “NS records” instead.)

  B:

  You can find that by logging into your site’s Dashboard and clicking on Store–>Domains.

  I hope this helps – let me know if you have any more questions!
