Status troubleshooting

Don't worry if your transaction status seems stuck! Blockchain transactions sometimes take time to process. This guide will help you resolve common status issues quickly and easily.

First of all, if the transaction fails, all money in the transaction will automatically be returned to your wallet in a few hours. If the transaction has completed, but you don't see the expected status, it means there is no blocker behaviour, and our support will help you

In case your transaction is completed in your wallet and at the same time you see an unexpected status of your project more than 5 minutes later, try these status-troubleshooting actions:

· Check my transaction
· Already done? Tap to check

🔄 Common status issues

Transaction statuses that might appear "stuck":

• "Wallet processing..."

• "Depositing funds... Transaction pending..."

• "Canceling... Transaction pending..."

• "Waiting for customer to deposit funds"

• "Releasing funds... Transaction pending..."

➡️ These are normal and usually resolve automatically within a few minutes.

⏰ First Step: Wait up to 5 Minutes

🚨 MOST IMPORTANT: Don't panic and wait patiently!

Why transactions can be delayed:

• TON network congestion - High traffic can slow processing

• Wallet synchronization - Your wallet may need time to update

• Smart contract execution - Complex operations take longer

• Blockchain confirmation - Multiple confirmations are required for security

✅ In 95% of cases, waiting up to 5 minutes resolves the issue automatically.
