Blockchain Confirmations

A blockchain confirmation occurs when a transaction is included in a new block and added to the chain. Each subsequent block adds another confirmation, increasing the transaction finality and security against reversal.

Why This Matters for Merchants

Zateway monitors confirmations for every payment. On fast chains like Solana (400ms block time) and Polygon (2s), payments confirm in seconds. Zateway notifies merchants via webhook as soon as the required confirmations are reached — enabling instant payment experiences.
