  I just bought a domain with WordPress and then realised that I actually don’t want the domain to redirect here; I want to use it for an external website.

  Can I do this now? (If so, how)
  OR
  Should I cancel the domain within 48 hours?

  Thanks guys!

  Hi,

  You can do this by either changing the name servers for the domain you just purchased to point to your external website:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/

  Or you can send us a request to cancel your domain (within 48 hours of purchase).

  Thanks coffeemanmatt, do you happen to know if I will be refunded on the mapping if I cancel within 48 hours too…?
