**OKX pays funding per market (from next minus current funding time; 8h default) (most common market setting: 8h (288), 4h (212)).**

As of 2026-10-10 15:07 UTC. Source: https://perpspec.com/answers/okx-funding-interval

Formula: premium index average + clamp(interest - premium, ±0.05%), capped per market. Positive funding means longs pay shorts. Because exchanges pay every 1, 4 or 8 hours, compare annualized rates, not raw ones.
