As of Nov 4, 2026, 108 ETFs pay weekly and 929 pay monthly, judged from the past year of payments.

### In plain words

A weekly dividend ETF pays cash every week. Most ETFs pay quarterly or yearly, some monthly. Weekly payers are newer, and most use options to produce the cash.

ETFIQ judges the rhythm from the past year of payments, checked against the issuer’s schedule. It finds 108 weekly and 929 monthly payers; a fund too new to judge is left out. A faster payout changes when the cash arrives, not how much there is. Payments can include a return of your own money, so ETFIQ shows cash paid, price change and total return together.

### Questions

Does a weekly ETF return more than a monthly one? The rhythm only changes when cash arrives. Compare total return over the same window.

How does ETFIQ know how often a fund pays? From the past year of payments, checked against the issuer’s schedule where there is one.

What are the dates? The income calendar shows each fund’s payment dates.
