Interest Accrual & Payment

Wasabi settles pending interest on a rolling basis to reward vault depositors faster. On the trading side, this affects how interest is handled on open positions.

How Interest is Paid

When opening or viewing a position, you will see one of the following, depending on the market configuration:

• Adds to Principal: Interest accrued will be added to your principal, effectively increasing leverage over time.

• Takes from Collateral: Interest accrued will be paid by taking from your collateral, effectively reducing your collateral over time.

Adding Collateral

Adding collateral, via the Add Collateral button on an open position, at any time will pay off all outstanding interest and reset the accrual clock.
