One confirmation means that your transaction has been included in a block. All subsequent confirmations happen with more blocks are found on top of the block your transaction was included in. Once you have one confirmation, more confirmations will come as blocks are mined; there is nothing that you need to do.

You only need to pay a transaction fee (or fee for that service) once in order to get the first confirmation.

Transcatino accelerators like that one is only useful if you have paid less fee than the recommended amount for your transaction. If you've already paid a decent amount of fee then waiting a few hours would result in a confirmation anyways.

These services are basically mining pools that will selectively inclued your transaction in the blocks that they mine.

However, keep in mind that they are incredibly expensive to use and your first option is to always send the transaction with a high fee. So it's sort of only supposed to be used in emergency scenarios. There are also free ones like antpool.

The moment your transaction has 1 confirmation, you are sure that it cannot be reversed or double spend in the case of receiving payment for some goods you have sold. And subsequent confirmations can just flow in without you even knowing when its happening but the moment you paid the required fee or even higher than the minimum, I don't think there is anything else that you can do again than to just wait and eventually everything will be completed in due time. The only thing there is losing out when you need it urgently just like wanting to buy a coin, bet on a game just like you have said.
