Use our NZX dividend data in Claude
dividends.co.nz runs a free MCP server (Model Context Protocol). Connect it to Claude, or any other MCP client, and the assistant can look up NZX dividend history, ex-dividend dates and yields from our database while it answers. No account or API key is needed.
Server address
https://dividends.co.nz/mcpConnect it to Claude
- In Claude (web or desktop), open Settings, then Connectors.
- Choose “Add custom connector”, name it “dividends.co.nz” and paste the address above.
- Start a chat, turn the connector on, and ask about NZX dividends.
Other MCP clients (Cursor, Claude Code, and ChatGPT where your plan supports custom connectors) take the same address as a remote MCP server.
Questions to try
- “Which NZX stocks go ex-dividend in the next two weeks?”
- “Show Contact Energy's dividend history since 2022.”
- “Compare the dividend yields of ANZ and Westpac on the NZX.”

Where the data comes from
Dividend payments come from each company's NZX distribution notice where one exists, and every payment says which source it came from. Companies that file no NZX notice (some UK-listed trusts and ETFs) use third-party data. Share prices, yields and payout ratios are third-party market data and can lag.
The same data is published for every stock as JSON (/stocks/{ticker}/data.json) and Markdown (/stocks/{ticker}/markdown.md). See also llms.txt.
