The dividend calendar shows upcoming ex-dividend dates for stocks. To receive a dividend payment, you must own the stock before the ex-dividend date.
The first day a stock trades without the dividend. Buy before this date to get paid.
The date the dividend is deposited into your brokerage account.
Most dividend calendars list one date. This one shows both, because they answer different questions. The ex-dividend date calendar tells you the cutoff: own the shares by the close of the trading day before the ex-date and the payout is yours; buy on the ex-date or later and it goes to the seller. That's the date to watch when you're deciding when to buy.
The dividend payment date calendar tells you when the cash actually arrives — usually two to four weeks after the ex-date, sometimes longer. That's the date that matters for income planning: if you're living on dividends or timing a reinvestment, map your holdings by pay date, not ex-date. Each entry above shows the ex-date as the heading and the pay date on the right.
One caution: there's no free lunch in buying just before the ex-date. The share price typically drops by roughly the dividend amount when the stock goes ex, so "dividend capture" mostly turns a taxable payout into an equal price dip. Use the calendar to know when income arrives and to avoid buying right before a payout you'd rather not be taxed on — not to chase dividends.
The calendar tracks declared dividends for stocks and ETFs listed on the NYSE, Nasdaq, and NYSE American — typically 2,000+ ex-dividend dates in a busy month, from Dividend Kings and Aristocrats to monthly-paying REITs and BDCs. Data is refreshed every day from Polygon.io, and future months fill in as companies announce their next payout, usually four to eight weeks ahead. Use the search box to filter by ticker or company name, or browse month by month.
Each month we pull the most notable ex-dividend and payment dates from this calendar into a week-by-week guide, with the big names, the Aristocrats and Kings going ex, and the monthly payers.
Want to track your payouts yourself? It takes four steps:
Write down every dividend-paying stock and ETF you own, with the number of shares. Your brokerage account’s positions page has everything you need.
For each holding, find the ex-dividend date (the cutoff to qualify for the next payout) and the payment date (when cash lands in your account). Both are on this calendar or your broker’s stock detail page.
Most US stocks pay quarterly, so each one hits four months a year. Put every payment date in a spreadsheet with one column per month to see exactly when income arrives.
