  There is no upgrade at WordPress.com that allows the hiding or removal of the footer credit links.

  May I remove credit links such as ‘Blog at !WordPress.com’, theme, font, or toolbar links?
  All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the credit links, even our VIP bloggers. Please do not hide the footer credits or the toolbar with CSS after purchasing a Custom Design upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#frequently-asked-questions

  Attribution. Automattic reserves the right to display attribution links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com,’ theme author, and font attribution in your blog footer or toolbar. Footer credits and the WordPress.com toolbar may not be altered or removed regardless of upgrades purchased. http://en.wordpress.com/tos/

  As you can see doing so is a ToS violation that gets blogs suspended. Your client needs to read this comparison very closely so he/she is keenly aware of the limitations of blogging here.

  Regarding use of the domain name your client will need to purchase an annually renewable custom design upgrade to map an existing domain. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/ Your client must also be crystal clear that all that changes is the URL. All other limitations and restrictions still apply as the blog will still be free hosted by WordPress.com.
