# Leverage Providers

Leverage providers (LP) provide leverage to leverage buyers by adding Token liquidity to Tidal AMM. Essentially, they sell Token for symToken.

Unlike LPs in a traditional AMM, whose profit expectation mainly comes from trading fee, Tidal AMM has **zero trading fee**. Instead, SYM Finance LPs' revenue source is different, and twofold:

* [Mint Fee Sharing](https://docs.symfi.io/sym-finance/mechanism/leverage-providers/mint-fee-sharing)
* [Tidal Force Rewards](https://docs.symfi.io/sym-finance/mechanism/leverage-providers/tidal-force-rewards)

The different incentive structure for LPs is what makes LPing on SYM Finance a different activity than regular liquidity provision.
