# What's the use of extra tips if we can just change the speed?

The "Extra Tip on Buys (%)" and "Extra Tip on Sells (%)" are used to add an additional amount to incentivize validators, potentially increasing your transaction speed. 

While changing the speed setting can also affect transaction speed, adding a tip provides an extra incentive for validators to prioritize your transaction.
