Stuck Bitcoin transaction

How it works

RBF raises both the absolute fee and fee rate. CPFP spends an output you control and pays for the child plus every unconfirmed ancestor. The relay rate is an assumption; wallets, nodes and package policies differ. These estimates do not guarantee acceptance or confirmation.

Choose “Increase fee” in your wallet if available. For CPFP, use a spendable change or received output and include all unconfirmed ancestors. Check the wallet's final fee before signing. Never share a seed phrase with an acceleration service.

Electrum: in History, right-click the pending transaction and select Increase Fee when available. Review the replacement before signing.

Sparrow: in Transactions, right-click and choose Increase Fee to open the replacement in Send. CPFP needs a spendable output; check the wallet's package fee.
