FAQ

What is the API3 funding rate?

A periodic payment between long and short holders of API3 perpetual futures that keeps the contract price near spot. When the rate is positive, longs pay shorts; when negative, shorts pay longs. Right now it ranges from 0.0034% to 0.0100% per 8 hours across 13 exchanges.

How often is API3 funding paid?

Every 8 hours on most exchanges, every 1–4 hours on some (Hyperliquid pays hourly). The table shows each exchange's interval and the time to the next payment.

Why is the API3 funding rate different on each exchange?

Each exchange computes it from its own premium of perpetual over index price and its own interval and caps. The difference is what funding arbitrage earns: short where funding is highest, long where it is lowest.

Does a high APR mean high profit?

No. APR extrapolates the current rate over a year, and rates change every period. Compare it with what was actually paid over 7 and 30 days in the table above.
