Who pays whom in funding fees?
Funding fee settlement intervals vary by contract. Some settle every 8 hours, others every 4 hours. Check the contract page for details.
Funding fees are exchanged only between long and short positions in perpetual contracts. The exchange doesn’t collect this money, and it’s not the same as a trading fee.
The key thing to remember when managing your funds: if you plan to hold a position for several days, factor funding fees into your holding costs. When rates are high, they can add up to quite a bit.

I get it wrong a lot too, so use your own judgment.
