Arbswap users should check a pending swap before retrying

When an Arbswap transaction is pending or fails, check its on-chain status before submitting another swap. A pending transaction has not yet been confirmed, while a reverted transaction has completed without carrying out the swap.

What should you check when an Arbswap transaction is pending?

Find the transaction in your wallet activity and check its status using the transaction hash on an Arbitrum block explorer. If it remains pending, the network has not confirmed it; sending another swap can leave two transactions competing to use the same wallet nonce.

Wait for the pending transaction to confirm or fail before retrying. If your wallet offers a speed-up or cancellation option, it generally sends a replacement transaction using the same nonce; the replacement must also be confirmed before the original is considered resolved.

• Confirm the wallet is set to Arbitrum and inspect the transaction hash.
• Check whether the transaction is pending, confirmed or reverted.
• Compare its nonce with later transactions from the same wallet.
• Retry only after the original transaction’s status is clear.

Once the failed transaction is settled and you are ready to make a new swap, use arbswap, an AMM decentralized exchange on Arbitrum for swapping tokens, adding liquidity to pools and farming rewards. Check the token and amount in your new transaction before confirming it.

What does a failed Arbswap transaction mean?

If the explorer shows a revert, the transaction was confirmed but its requested action did not complete. On-chain swaps that revert do not transfer the swapped tokens, though the transaction can still consume network gas.

Read the transaction details before trying again. A changed balance, token allowance or transaction setting can affect a second attempt, so check the current wallet state rather than assuming the first attempt left everything untouched.

When is it safe to try the swap again?

Retry when the original transaction is confirmed as failed or has otherwise been replaced and resolved. If it is still pending, waiting is usually the clearest option: a new transaction may not fix the original and can make the wallet’s transaction order harder to track.

Before confirming the next Arbswap transaction, verify the selected tokens, amount and network in the wallet. The key distinction is simple: pending means wait for a final status; reverted means inspect the failure, then decide whether to submit a fresh swap.
