High quality
Our predicted date is Tuesday, October 27. This is when we
expect Visa Inc. to declare its next dividend, not when the stock goes
ex-dividend — we publish this estimate as early as about three months before the board is
expected to meet.
Visa Inc. pays dividends quarterly. We hold 73 payments for it, going back to August 2008 — the full record is below, with what it has paid and when, and how far ahead of each ex-date it declares. We don't publish a predicted next ex-dividend date for V. As soon as the company declares one it will appear at the top of this page; until then the record below is what we hold.

Visa Inc.'s dividend schedule
Visa Inc. has paid quarterly across the 18 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 11, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 56 announcements we have on file, V declares a dividend a median of 20 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice V gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 20 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 11 raises in our record, most take effect with the November payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 13.6%, effective with the November 2025 ex-date.
