Transactions

Why is my transaction pending?

Check confirmations, network congestion, and transaction status.

1. 1

   Copy the public transaction hash from your wallet's transaction history. Never copy a private key or recovery phrase.

2. 2

   Open the official block explorer for the correct network and look up the hash. Confirm whether the transaction is pending, successful, or failed.

3. 3

   Network congestion and low fees can delay confirmation. A successful transaction may still need additional confirmations before a service credits it.

4. 4

   If your wallet supports speeding up or cancelling a pending transaction, follow its official instructions. Never send money to someone claiming they can unlock a transaction.
