# What is a liquidity provider (LP) fee?

**A Liquidity Provider (LP) fee is applied to all swaps when using the Zebra Protocol.**

&#x20;

The LP fee is taken from the input token.

&#x20;

The liquidity provider fees are distributed to liquidity providers as a reward for supplying tokens to the liquidity pool.

&#x20;

The liquidity provider fee is paid proportionally to all liquidity providers who have an active liquidity position. Liquidity providers who have a position outside of the price range at that moment will not earn fees.

&#x20;

Liquidity provider fees are paid entirely to the liquidity providers.&#x20;
