# Wormhole Bridge FAQ

### Q: How can i check my transaction? <a href="#i-have-sent-tokens-to-chain---my-tokens-did-not-arrive-in-my-target-wallet-but-have-left-my-origin-w" id="i-have-sent-tokens-to-chain---my-tokens-did-not-arrive-in-my-target-wallet-but-have-left-my-origin-w"></a>

#### Wormhole explorer

On the bridge status page. You can see a link which will take you to your transaction on the Wormhole Explorer. When your source chain transaction has been completed but not yet been verified by Wormhole your transaction status will look like this:

The find redeem option is an alternative method that you can follow to complete your destination chain transaction. You can use this method in the case that the wormhole bridge stalls or fails to update your bridge transaction's status. To redeem your transaction first click the redeem button

It will then display this option to resume your transaction. Click this to be navigated to the forum (link in the next question) where you can complete your redemption transaction.<br>

### Q: I have sent tokens to \<chain> - my tokens did not arrive in my target wallet, but have left my origin wallet. What do I do?[​](https://portalbridge.com/docs/faqs/troubleshooting#i-have-sent-tokens-to-chain---my-tokens-did-not-arrive-in-my-target-wallet-but-have-left-my-origin-wallet-what-do-i-do) <a href="#i-have-sent-tokens-to-chain---my-tokens-did-not-arrive-in-my-target-wallet-but-have-left-my-origin-w" id="i-have-sent-tokens-to-chain---my-tokens-did-not-arrive-in-my-target-wallet-but-have-left-my-origin-w"></a>

You either a) need to redeem them, or, if redeeming was already successful, b) add them to your wallet:

**a) Redeeming:**

* Go to <https://portalbridge.com/#/redeem>
* You need to enter your source chain and the corresponding transaction id (which you can find in your wallet, or with your address in the blockchains explorer)

<figure><img src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/v4gdm8TKNfhuq8cRaHWwn-EuJKCuzWSXl5zt76DDHq3N6TBqP-ntLVZNS5CMbIUBvtE2qI2eCpw_ean4hSicvrLCYhlz8TI5WxgzN3zBpo2wqInZvYuaXCcxU3k6nF6l-On05Ak4vjdZPLhJcQZXybc" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* Click Recover
* Click Redeem and accept the wallet approval

**b) Add them to your wallet:**

**Metamask:**[**​**](https://portalbridge.com/docs/faqs/troubleshooting#metamask)

* In the Metamask assets tab, click import tokens
* The contract address can be found in the relevant block explorer transaction and clicking the token name. When you click the token name, it will open a new window and the contract address is on the right-hand side in the profile summary.
* You’ll also need a symbol - this can be anything you want to recognize the token as.
* Click add custom token

See the video tutorial - How to add a token into your Metamask wallet [here.](https://portalbridge.com/docs/video-tutorials/how-to-manually-add-tokens-to-your-wallet#metamask)

### I bridged X token but cannot swap it now. No DEX has liquid markets,[​](https://portalbridge.com/docs/faqs/troubleshooting#i-bridged-x-token-but-cannot-swap-it-now-no-dex-has-liquid-markets) <a href="#i-bridged-x-token-but-cannot-swap-it-now-no-dex-has-liquid-markets" id="i-bridged-x-token-but-cannot-swap-it-now-no-dex-has-liquid-markets"></a>

You bridged a token, which has no liquidity on the target chain. You will need to use Portal bridge to bridge this one back. You can do this by pasting the token contract address (which you can find in your wallet or with your address in the blockchains explorer) into the Portal “select a token” search field.

You can find a comprehensive overview of liquid markets [here](https://portalbridge.com/docs/faqs/liquid-markets).

#### How can I redeem my tokens on the target chain?[​](https://portalbridge.com/docs/faqs/troubleshooting#how-can-i-redeem-my-tokens-on-the-target-chain) <a href="#how-can-i-redeem-my-tokens-on-the-target-chain" id="how-can-i-redeem-my-tokens-on-the-target-chain"></a>

If you've accidentally refreshed the page during the transfer process or did not redeem your tokens, you can follow the tutorial [here](https://portalbridge.com/docs/tutorials/how-to-use-recovery-workflow).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://pancakeswap.gitbook.io/pancakeswap/bridge/faq/wormhole-bridge-faq.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
