Hello Spreadsheet Users!
We've reset your April 2026 credit usage to 0, effective immediately.
You have your full monthly quota of DividendData.com available to use through May 1, when the normal monthly cycle resumes.
Here's why, and what else changed.
The Bug
We found and fixed a problem where you were being charged credits for data we'd already sent you. Every time you reopened your spreadsheet or it recalculated, you got logged again for the same numbers — even though nothing new had been pulled.
For an active user with 80 formulas opening their sheet twice a day, that was roughly 4,800 credits a month for zero new information.
Our pricing has always meant "1 credit = 1 piece of data you asked us to fetch." The old system was quietly charging for data you already had. Not what we promised.
The Fix
From now on:
Credits are only charged when we actually fetch fresh data for you
Reopening your spreadsheet is free
Letting it recalculate is free
Reloading your browser is free
Your effective capacity is 3–5× higher at the same plan price
The reset is how we make April right — not just going forward, but retroactively.
And Everything's Faster Too
We also rebuilt the system that powers your formulas. Spreadsheets load noticeably faster now, and the "data provider busy" errors that sometimes showed up on larger watchlists should be rare or gone.
What You Need To Do
Nothing. Both improvements are live the next time you open your spreadsheet.
Thanks for sticking with us.
