My transaction has been pending for a long time. What can I do?#

If your CenturionDEX transaction has been pending for a long time, you can wait or cancel it.

First, check the Centurion block explorer to see whether your transaction was broadcast to the network.

How to check for pending transactions#

  1. Go to the Centurion block explorer.
  2. Search your wallet address.
  3. Look for any pending transactions.

If you see pending transactions, your options are:

  • Wait: Most transactions complete within a few minutes, though high network activity can slow them. The interface has a default swap deadline, after which the transaction automatically fails and can be resubmitted.
  • Refresh your browser: Clearing browser data and reloading can help.
  • Cancel the transaction: If a transaction is stuck, you may be able to cancel it. Cancelling submits an empty transaction with a higher network cost and only works when there are no earlier pending transactions, since the blockchain processes transactions in order.

How to cancel a pending transaction#

  1. Select Activity.
  2. Select the transaction you want to cancel.
  3. Select Cancel transaction.

Cancelling a transaction has an associated network cost.
