## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability financial-data-x402-dividend-data-by-ticker-6a1b3b3a
```

Example prompt: What's the dividend situation for Johnson & Johnson — give me the yield, the next ex-dividend date, payout ratio, and a few years of dividend history.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, pay-per-call dividend data without a long-term subscription or API key setup. It is ideal for agents that need dividend yield, payout ratios, ex-dividend dates, or split-adjusted history for any US-listed stock, billed at $0.01 USDC per call via the x402 micropayment protocol on Base or Solana.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error or empty data
- Ticker has no dividend history (e.g. non-dividend-paying growth stocks) may return empty dividend fields
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 payment is not completed
- Network timeout on the Vercel edge function
- Data may lag by hours for newly declared dividends not yet reflected in upstream source

## How this service works

Pay-per-call stock, macro, on-chain, and crypto data over the x402 protocol. USDC on Base or Solana, no API keys, no subscriptions.

## Output

A JSON object containing: the as-of date, ticker symbol, last dividend date and amount, next dividend payment and ex-dividend dates, full dividend history as a list of dated amounts, stock split history with ratios, and a dividend summary with payout ratio, forward/trailing annual rates, forward/trailing yield percentages, and 5-year average yield.
