7 Best Dividend Tracker Apps in 2026 (Free & Paid)
I tested every major dividend tracking app. Here are the 7 best for monitoring income, ex-dates, yield, and growth, from free options to premium tools.
Disclaimer: This article reviews dividend tracking tools for educational purposes. Nothing here is financial advice. Investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal. Always do your own research before investing.
Thereās a specific kind of satisfaction in watching dividend payments hit your account. Itās not life-changing money (yet). Itās $3.47 from Apple, $12.80 from a REIT, $0.63 from some ETF you forgot you owned. But it adds up. And tracking it is weirdly addictive.
The problem is that your brokerage app shows dividends as an afterthought, buried in transaction history or a basic calendar view. If you want to see your total dividend income, project future payments, track growth over time, or manage dividends across multiple accounts, you need a dedicated tracker.
I tested every dividend tracking app I could find. Some are excellent. Some look pretty but break down once you add more than a few holdings. Here are the seven worth your time.
If youāre still setting up your investing toolkit, start with the Investing Tools Guide for the full roadmap.
š New & Notable: Portfolio Terminal. A free web tracker from a solo developer that was not on my radar when I ranked the seven apps here. Unlimited holdings on the free plan, imports from a broker screenshot, CSV, or PDF statement, and an Income tab with a 12-month dividend calendar sorted by ex-date. No native app and no automatic broker sync, so it is not in the ranked seven yet. Details in the New & Notable section below.
Quick Comparison
| App | Price | Platforms | Holdings (Free) | Best For |

Prices as of early 2026. Some apps offer annual discounts of 30-50%.
1. Stock Events, Best Overall Free Tracker
Price: Free / Pro ~$50/year | Platforms: iOS, Android, Web
Stock Events has become the go-to dividend tracker, and it earned that spot. The free tier gives you what most people need: a clean dividend calendar, income projections, payment history, and portfolio tracking for up to 15 holdings.
What You Get (Free)
- Dividend calendar showing ex-dates, pay dates, and amounts
- Income projections for the next 12 months based on current holdings
- Portfolio tracking for up to 15 stocks/ETFs
- Basic dividend history and yield tracking
What Pro Adds (~$50/year or ~$6/month)
- Unlimited holdings
- Dividend growth tracking
- Advanced income analytics and charts
- Multiple portfolio support
- CSV import/export
Why I Like It
The calendar view is the killer feature. At a glance, you see every upcoming dividend, which stocks pay this week, this month, and which months are your highest-income months. It makes dividend investing feel tangible in a way that brokerage apps donāt.
The app also handles international dividends well, supporting most major stock exchanges. If you hold US, UK, and European dividend stocks, Stock Events tracks them all in one view.
Limitations
The 15-holding limit on the free tier is generous but limiting if you have a diversified portfolio. Pro at $50/year ($6/month if billed monthly) is reasonable, but it adds up alongside other subscription tools.
2. Sharesight, Best for Tax Reporting
Price: Free (10 holdings) / Investor ~$12/mo / Expert ~$24/mo | Platforms: Web, iOS, Android
Sharesight is the serious choice. If you care about tax-loss harvesting, cost basis tracking, and year-end tax reports, this is the tool.
What You Get
- Automatic dividend tracking, Sharesight auto-detects dividends from your holdings, no manual entry
- Tax reports, Capital gains, dividend income, unrealized gains, tax-loss selling opportunities
- Performance tracking, True time-weighted returns including dividends (most brokerages only show price returns)
- Multi-currency support, Tracks investments across global exchanges with automatic currency conversion
- Broker import, Sync with major brokerages via CSV or direct integration
Why I Like It
The performance tracking is what sets Sharesight apart. Most tools show you how much your stocks went up or down. Sharesight shows your total return, price movement plus reinvested dividends. This is the number that actually matters, and itās surprisingly hard to calculate accurately across multiple accounts and reinvestment events.
The tax reporting alone justifies the price if youāre managing a taxable portfolio. At tax time, you export a report instead of spending hours in spreadsheets.
Limitations
The free tier only covers 10 holdings, not enough for a diversified portfolio. The $12/month Investor plan supports 100+ holdings, which covers most individual investors. The interface is functional rather than beautiful; itās built for data, not aesthetics.
3. DivTracker, Best Design
Price: Free (10 holdings) / Pro tier ~$4/month, or $20 yearly / Ultimate tier ~$7/month, or $50 yearly | Platforms: iOS, Android, Web
DivTracker is what happens when a designer builds a dividend tracker. The app is beautiful, smooth animations, clean typography, and data visualizations that make you want to check your dividends just because the app is nice to use.
What You Get
- Visual dividend calendar with clean monthly/yearly views
- Income projections with interactive charts
- Dividend growth tracking, see how your income grows over time
- DRIP simulation, project income with dividend reinvestment
- Portfolio allocation pie charts by sector, holding, and yield
Why I Like It
The DRIP projection feature is genuinely motivating. Plug in your current portfolio and monthly contribution, and DivTracker shows you where your dividend income will be in 5, 10, 20 years with reinvestment. Watching that compound growth curve steepen is the most effective advertisement for long-term investing Iāve seen.
Limitations
The free tier limits you to 10 holdings. The Pro tier adds brokerage account syncing (auto-updates), which makes a huge difference if you donāt want to manually enter every trade.
4. Simply Wall St, Best Visual Analysis
Price: Free (limited) / Premium ~$10/mo | Platforms: Web, iOS, Android
Simply Wall St isnāt specifically a dividend tracker, itās a portfolio analysis tool with excellent dividend features. The āsnowflakeā visualization that scores stocks on Value, Growth, Health, Dividends, and Future performance is unique and immediately useful.
What You Get
- Snowflake analysis for every stock (visual scoring across 5 dimensions)
- Dividend analysis, yield, payout ratio, coverage, growth history, sustainability score
- Portfolio health check, diversification, overexposure, and dividend concentration
- Dividend sustainability, flags stocks where dividends may be at risk (high payout ratios, declining earnings)
Why I Like It
The dividend sustainability analysis is the standout. Instead of just showing you yield (which is what most trackers do), Simply Wall St analyzes whether a company can maintain its dividend. High yield means nothing if the company cuts it next quarter. The payout ratio, earnings trend, and cash flow analysis together paint a much clearer picture.
Limitations
The free tier is quite limited (5 stocks on a watchlist, limited report access). Premium at $10/month gives you full access, but the dividend tracking features are secondary to the analysis tools. If you just want a calendar and income tracking, Stock Events or DivTracker are more focused.
5. Snowball Analytics, Best Income Analytics
Price: Free (limited features) / Pro ~$80/year | Platforms: Web, iOS, Android
Snowball Analytics is built specifically for income investors. While other trackers show you dividends as one feature among many, Snowball makes dividend income the entire focus.
What You Get
- Detailed income breakdowns by month, quarter, year, and holding
- Dividend growth tracking with year-over-year comparisons
- Forward income projections based on declared dividends
- Dividend reinvestment tracking (manual DRIP logging)
- Sector and geographic allocation analysis
Why I Like It
The income analytics go deeper than any other tracker on this list. You can see your dividend income broken down by ordinary vs. qualified dividends, by holding period, and by declared vs. projected. The year-over-year growth chart is particularly useful, it turns abstract portfolio growth into a concrete income trajectory.
Limitations
The free tier lets you track unlimited holdings but limits historical data and some analytics features. The interface is data-heavy and assumes familiarity with dividend investing concepts, not the most beginner-friendly option.
6. Dividend.com, Best for Research
Price: Free (basic research) | Platforms: Web
Dividend.com isnāt a portfolio tracker, itās a dividend research database. But itās so useful for dividend investors that it belongs on this list.
What You Get
- Dividend history for thousands of stocks (payment dates, amounts, increases)
- Dividend Aristocrat and King lists, stocks with 25+ and 50+ years of consecutive dividend increases
- Yield screener, filter stocks by yield, growth rate, payout ratio, sector
- Ex-date calendar, see all upcoming ex-dates across the market
- Educational content, articles, guides, and strategy content for dividend investors
Why I Like It
When youāre researching a new dividend stock, Dividend.com is the first place to check. The complete dividend history, every payment, every increase, every cut, tells you more about a companyās financial health than any single metric. A stock thatās raised its dividend for 30 consecutive years sends a very different signal than one with an erratic payment history.
Limitations
Itās a research tool, not a portfolio tracker. You canāt import your holdings or track your personal income. Use it alongside Stock Events or Sharesight, not instead of them.
7. Your Brokerage App, The One You Already Have
Price: Free | Platforms: Whatever your broker offers
Before you download anything, check what your brokerage already provides. Most major brokerages have improved their dividend features significantly.
What You Get (Varies by Broker)
| Broker | Dividend Calendar | Income History | Projections | DRIP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fidelity | ā | ā | Basic | ā Auto-DRIP |
| Schwab | ā | ā | Basic | ā Auto-DRIP |
| Vanguard | ā | ā | Limited | ā Auto-DRIP |
| Robinhood | Basic | ā | ā | ā (recent) |
Why Consider This First
If you have all your investments at one brokerage, the built-in tools might be enough. You get dividend calendars, payment history, and automatic DRIP without another app or subscription. The data is always accurate because itās coming directly from your account, no manual entry or sync issues.
When to Add a Dedicated Tracker
- You have accounts at multiple brokerages and want a unified view
- You want forward income projections beyond what your broker shows
- You want dividend growth analytics and year-over-year comparisons
- You need tax reporting features your broker doesnāt provide
New and Notable: Portfolio Terminal
Portfolio Terminal is a browser-based tracker built by Julien Esnault, a solo developer in France. It was not on my radar when I ranked the seven apps above, so it has not had the months of daily use the others got. I worked through the live demo (no sign-up needed) and the import flow, which is enough to say what it does and where it falls short, but not enough to rank it. Julien got in touch after this guide went live. No money changed hands, and the link is a standard nofollow like every other tool link here.
What You Get (Free)
- Unlimited positions and accounts on the free plan, no card required. That alone beats the 10 to 15 holding caps on Stock Events, Sharesight, and DivTracker.
- Import from almost anything: a screenshot of your broker app, a pasted table, a CSV or Excel export, or a PDF statement (up to 3 MB). Named brokers include Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, Robinhood, Webull, Interactive Brokers, Trading 212, DEGIRO, and Revolut.
- Income tab: projected dividend income for the next 12 months broken down by payer, a dividend calendar by ex-date with expected per-share amounts, and a received history by month and year.
- Risk and gains views (VaR, Sharpe, beta, drawdown, FIFO realized gains) that none of the dedicated dividend apps offer.
- No broker logins. The app never asks for your brokerage credentials. The only exception is a read-only Interactive Brokers Flex token, used once per request and not stored.
Limitations
- Manual updates. Without broker sync, every new purchase means another screenshot or file import. If you trade often, that gets old fast.
- Web only. No iOS or Android app, and the dense terminal-style layout is built for a desktop screen.
- Young product. The dividend calendar estimates dates from each holdingās payment rhythm, and the paid Pro tier (tax-loss harvesting, foreign dividend tax analysis) is announced but not launched as of October 2026.
Verdict: If your main complaint about free trackers is the holding limit, Portfolio Terminal is worth a look. If you want a phone app that stays in sync with your broker, stick with Stock Events or DivTracker.
A Small Data Point: What Imported Portfolios Actually Yield
One thing a tracker that imports real broker histories can do, and a review cannot, is show what peopleās portfolios actually pay. Julien shared an aggregate from Portfolio Terminalās imported portfolios, which I am including because numbers like this are rare and the method is transparent. Treat it as a glimpse, not a survey.
| Figure | Value |
|---|---|
| Portfolios in the sample (n) | 24 |
| Median trailing-12-month dividend yield | 0.46% |
| Middle half of portfolios (25th to 75th percentile) | 0.16% to 0.96% |
| Portfolios created | February 13 to October 11, 2026 |
| Dividends counted | October 10, 2025 to October 9, 2026 |
How it was measured: for each portfolio, the dividends every position paid over the trailing 12 months (Yahoo Finance data) were added up and divided by the portfolioās value at the October 9, 2026 close, in US dollars. Duplicate imports and portfolios with a holding that could not be priced were left out, and crypto counts as a 0% yield. Source: Portfolio Terminal, shared by its developer on October 12, 2026.
The caveats matter. Twenty-four portfolios is a small, self-selected sample of people trying a free tracker, and it leans toward growth and tech stocks, which is why the median sits below the S&P 500ās roughly 1.0% yield in October 2026. It says nothing about dividend investors as a group. What it does illustrate is the gap this whole article is about: a typical imported portfolio pays well under 1%, while a deliberately dividend-focused one lands in the 3% to 5% range from the FAQ below. If your tracker shows a number near 0.5%, you are not a dividend investor yet, whatever the appās name says.
New and Notable: Arincen Portfolio 360
Portfolio 360 is the tracker inside Arincen, a trading community founded in 2015 that is better known for forex signals than for dividend tools. Its founder got in touch after this guide went live and gave me a full-access account for testing. I ran two test portfolios through it every weekday for two weeks in October 2026, with fictitious trades, so it has had less time than the ranked seven and I am not ranking it yet. No money changed hands, and the link is a standard nofollow like every other tool link here.
What You Get
- Complete dividend history on import. A CSV of twelve US dividend stocks and one ETF came back with every payment since purchase, a 12-month forecast with ex-date and pay date per holding, yield and yield on cost, and withholding tax applied by the companyās home country.
- A tax layer the ranked apps lack. The taxable-income report counts dividends, and the AI tax assistant (37 countries) worked through a German and a US case correctly in my test, including the allowance and the credit for tax withheld at source.
- Exit analysis shows what a sold position did 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after you sold it. A weekly email sums up each portfolioās week, the dividends paid, and the best and worst holding.
- Fast fixes. Roughly fifteen problems I reported during the test, from fees counted per share to missing ETF payouts, were fixed within days, several within hours.
Limitations
- US listings only. European tickers are rejected at import, so this is not a tool for a DAX or Euronext portfolio, whatever the 37-country tax assistant suggests.
- The free plan is a demo: one portfolio, ten open positions, no broker sync. Plus costs $29.57 a month and Premium $56.24 a month, both billed annually with a 7-day trial, which is more than Sharesight charges.
- Broker sync is ācoming soonā as of October 2026. Everything goes in by CSV or by hand.
- Young numbers. The net worth in the performance chart did not match the statement on any day of my test, and the weekly email shows a euro portfolio in dollars.
Verdict: Worth a look if you hold US dividend stocks, want withholding tax and a tax report handled for you, and do not mind paying. If you hold European shares or want a free app that syncs with your broker, stay with the ranked seven.
Which Tracker Should You Choose?
| Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Just starting with dividends | Your brokerage app + Dividend.com for research |
| Want a free dedicated tracker | Stock Events (free, 15 holdings) |
| iOS user who values design | DivTracker (beautiful, DRIP projections) |
| Tax season stress | Sharesight (automated tax reports) |
| Deep income analytics | Snowball Analytics (web only) |
| Visual portfolio analysis | Simply Wall St (snowflake scores) |
| All-in-one research | Dividend.com + Stock Events combo |
| More than 15 holdings, free, desktop user | Portfolio Terminal (new, web only, manual import) |
| US stocks, want withholding tax and a tax report done for you, paying is fine | Arincen Portfolio 360 (new, US listings only) |
My setup: Stock Events (free) for daily tracking and calendar, Dividend.com for research, and Sharesight when tax season approaches. This combo costs $0 for 10 months and ~$12/month for the two months I need tax reports.
The Dividend Investorās Quick Start
- Track what you have: Add your dividend holdings to Stock Events or your brokerageās dividend view
- Know your income: Calculate your current annual dividend income
