# Create a Liquidity Pair

{% hint style="info" %}
**Good to know:** By Adding liquidity you help create a decentralized ecosystem of exchange!\
\
You can add liquidity for preexisting tokens or new ones that aren't even listed yet!\
\
You can add liquidity to a token that isn't listed by inputting the contract address of the token directly into the token list!

Liquidity providers earn a 0.25% fee on all trades proportional to their share of the pool. Fees are added to the pool, accrue in real time and can be claimed by withdrawing your liquidity
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Warning:** If you do not understand how providing liquidity works please be careful with how much you risk! 

\
You may face impermanent losses!
