Fixing stalled swaps on PumpSwap

Swap intent can fail when liquidity is thin, RPC is congested, or the pumpfun connect wallet session expires. Use this checklist to clear errors while keeping your funds safe.

Quick fixes

• Change RPC: In Phantom, select a different endpoint to reduce timeouts.
• Adjust slippage: Start at 2%. If failing, move to 3–5% temporarily.
• Split orders: Break one large trade into smaller parts to lower price impact.

Verify the pool

Make sure the pool you are trading matches the token you bought on the pumpfun website. Copy the contract address from your wallet and compare it to the PumpSwap listing. Fake pools can drain funds or return worthless tokens.

Handling pending transactions

If a swap is pending for more than a minute, check the transaction hash on a Solana explorer. Do not spam the swap button. If it fails, review the error message; “Blockhash not found” means you waited too long, while “Slippage exceeded” means you need a higher tolerance or smaller size.

Reconnect your wallet

If prompts stop appearing, reconnect your pumpfun wallet on the original site, then reload PumpSwap. This refreshes permissions and keeps the intent aligned. Clear browser cache only after noting down addresses you need.
