Free browser extensionDividend research, inside the quote.
Dividend safety, real history charts and income tools inside the Yahoo Finance statistics you already use. Free research needs no account or API key. Connect an existing Pro account for deeper analysis.
Chrome Web Store release in preparation
We will add the install link when the extension is approved. In the meantime, you can look up the same dividend facts on the site.
Look up a dividend record
Additional metrics in Yahoo's statistics
- Model dividend safety grade and score
- Consecutive years of dividend growth
- Last day to buy, using the market holiday calendar
- Next pay date, when available
- Dividend payout ratio, when available
- Metrics already shown by Yahoo are skipped
The toolbar popup supports ticker lookups and shows recent distribution increases and decreases. Unavailable dates do not add empty rows. Variable distributions may change without representing a regular dividend-policy cut.
Useful free. More with Pro.

They cannot access your saved portfolios or change billing. Historical comparisons use recorded data; past results don't predict future returns.
Simple permissions, clear privacy
Public API answers are cached locally for six hours. Optional Pro connections store a research-only credential in extension session memory that page scripts cannot read. Paid research is not cached on disk. The extension has no advertising, analytics or remote executable code.
Ticker lookups are sent to our API. Like any network request, they expose an IP address to the server for delivery, security and rate limiting. Opening a research link takes you to our website, where the website privacy policy applies.
