Are you sending or receiving? Copay is a fairly large wallet, and not known to be a scam. They are unlikely to be affected by the points mentioned above. If you look up the txid on an explorer, and it shows confirmed, then the transaction is complete. Try moving your keys to another wallet, such as electrum, and see if it works.

All wallets I'm aware of show even unconfirmed transactions, and definitely show confirmed transactions with even 1 confirmation. If your wallet is not showing the transaction you are:

1. Connected to a node that is not fully synced for a light wallet.
2. Using a wallet that is attempting to scam you
3. Behind some kind of internet restricting proxy or firewall that prevents a wallet from communicating with nodes
4. Using a Bitcoin full node directly that is not fully synced.
